I got the finest tip one I could find at menards. I took off very little at a time and checked it i till I got it to my liking.

I was having the same problem and did exactly as rn suggested making the detent a little deeper a bit at a time. It is a much more positive engagement and I haven’t been able to get the safety to re-engage by my support hand pushing it up. Going to the range tomorrow and I’ll report back with results.

I’m looking for some reviews on the Artemis. Anyone running it in 3gun with or without a rds on it? thanks in advance.

the only downside I see to using the Benelli vs a box fed gun is at a match that has high round count shotgun stages that exceed your mag capacity. If you are just going to be shooting local matches you would be just fine using the Benelli. If you look at major match results you will also see many tac-ops guys who quad load beating alot of the mag fed shotgun guys too. Use what you have a get proficient at quad loading.

Yes they recommended turning it down under the handguard to .750 to cut weight.

Yes it did. They recommended it and said its lighter turning it down that way, than fluting it.

I have shot both out if it. I got the 1-7 twist 18” tac barrel turned down to .750 under the handguard. I am working up a load of 77gr smk for long range 3 gun. I also use fenix 55gr for burner bay ammo. I shot the missouri 3 gun match last weekend and it ran great. erik

I just received my CLE barrel a month ago and have not had a single ftf or other issue. I cant say its any more accurate than any wylde chamber Ive had but I am really liking the barrel so far. erik

I have had mixed success with anything lower than 1200 FPS. Now saying that I won’t run anything in mine except 1235Hdcp fed gold garandes. I have not had a single hiccup running these.

I received mine earlier this year and shoot exclusively 3 gun. I’m always switching back and forth between the 9mm limited and single port open depending on the match I’m shooting. For the price you pay you can’t beat the set up and versatility you get.

FWIW I have been researching new barrels for 3 gun the last few weeks and it seems that nearly every search, JP was mentioned and recommended. Not just in this forum but several others that are dedicated rifle forums. I don’t think I read any negative posts about fit, finish, or accuracy. I ended up with the JP 18” light contour rifle length gas.

I liked my xlr but experimented with a Luth mba-1 and won’t switch back now. I liked the luth a lot.

Check out dissident arms. I’m not sure if they ship outside of the US though. http://dissidentarms.com/index.php/product/da-enhanced-shell-release/

Ccorrect me if i'm wrong but i thought the spring should be 12-14" past the end of the tube with 12 being on the very short end.

Man it looks nice! I’m seriously considering changing my color to the grey pvd which I believe is a shade darker than yours but I haven’t seen it in a gun yet. Congratulations on the new blaster.
