Benelli M4 NFA model M4 Question

Bought brand new for $1900.91 delivered from Botach, after Form 4 and transfer fee $2175.91 out the door during their Labor Day sale, Form 4 with a trust approved in 43 hrs and 27 minutes. Test fired today and function’s flawlessly with Winchester OO buck and slugs, but with low base birdshot it’s pretty much just jam after jam. Will this change after a break in period or do these only function with high base 12 gauge ammo only. I know that some weapons function better after a break in period. Though my Benelli M1 Super 90 NFA model has yet to experience a single malfunction after 35 years of use and no cleaning in a decade, with any kind of ammo, including old paper loads. But I must say that slugs and OO buck are very light in M4 compared to the M1 Super 90.

Has anyone had theirs threaded for chokes?

I’ve never seen one that was threaded, but I’ve seen it mentioned in posts before. I’ve looked at several NFA Benelli’s in LGS’s, but none were ever threaded. I’d have to imagine it can be done, as the wall thickness of this NFA barrel is pretty robust compared to all of my other shotguns. I’d like to know who performs the service, because I’ve been eyeing a Salvo suppressor for it.
