I agree with Airedale, not more than $500.00.
Check if the gun has the speedfeed carrier, you will know it does if you can push the carrier up to load the magazine without depressing the bolt release button. If the gun has speedfeed it should have been made sometime after 1952 or 53 and will be a 2 3/4 gun.
2 9/16 chambers when out in the late 30's, but I disremmber when.

I just bought a 90%-95% Belgium made Sweet Sixteen for $450.00. I would not have bothered with a standard weight A5; the Sweet Sixteen is the best of the bread IMHO. The A5 is a cool old school gun that oozes old world craftsmanship, I like them. The weight of a SS should be 6 3/4 to 7 pounds.
Did you know that they will cycle faster than a benelli?
-
Yes! Short trigger.

DEZ Arms has a FSB that is driled & tapped with set screws already. Here is the link DEZ Arms FSB. I don't know anything about them, but it looks like a budget (cheap) way to get a long sight radius.

OK, I got my CMI mags.
Who makes base pads for them?
I've never seen base pads for M14 mags. They don't insert straight like an AR mag anyway.
I'm looking for something that just covers the bottom to give a more stable "mono-pod" effect.
Get the 25 round CMI mags and put This on them

As to "why companies keep building low power scopes with the reticle in the front/first focal plane". One reason might be that, front/first focal plane scopes can/will range correctly at any power setting. Second focal plane scopes will range correctly at one specific power setting, usually the highest.
I am not saying I like it, just that it's the way it works. Horus scopes/reticules are an example FFP scopes that "work" at all power settings. I agree that this is not good on a low powered variable.

The Fulton Armory 18.5 "Bush Barrel" is a Criterion (Kreiger's OEM button rifled barrel company) barrel. Here is a link to an artical about Criterion.

I want it to be ittle-bitty way out there sometimes, when I don't I can change it.
I also would like to regulate how many clicks up my 100 meter zero is with with out filing the sight or buying a taller one.
My scout rifle takes 22 clicks up for a 100 meter zero, I would rather have it be about 4 up.
I just think this sight might make M1/M14/M1A sights even better.
YMMV.
-
Check out the new M1A sight from Tech-Sights. I was wondering when someone would make something like this.
-
I would rather get belt room back by using a thigh rig for extra rifle mags. I still want my primary reload mag (for the rifle) on the belt. I tried a thigh rig for rifle mags but I kept banging into stuff with it, I must be too wide to start with.
Buy lots of stuff and see what works for you.

This is worth a read about aperture sights.

This reminds me of when I worked for **&T and "Lose-end". They don't call it the "Death Star" for nothing. I was not a fit, I hate it when that happens.
-
The ALLEY SUPPLY front sight is nice. For lube I use Slide Glide, make sure you lube up the inside of the op rod and op rod spring. Jut run the Springfield parts, they are fine. Get an extra extractor and spring and learn how to replace it here, (You may need to be a member of m14fl.com to view the link).

Well, not every thing

Check in the "BENELLI 12 gauge Sporting Clays Choke Tubes" section here: Carlson's Chokes. I use the LM choke for everything.

Brownells has the Benelli parts you need. Check this Benelli parts link from Brownells. Find part numbers 133 and 136. That should fix you up.
-
I use Slide-Glide as my heavy grease of choice.
-
Ditto on the "Will LR rifle targets have contrasting backgrounds or backers, or get painted between squads?"
-
I know you said just one but this is a cased set of Purdey, I think it should count as just one. I'll take it.
-
Yup, won't work on the newer ones. I am sure that the Novak will work fine.
-
Bo-Mar! Told you about the Gin.
-
If you have the Match or limited model with the Super Sight the HD-001 "should" drop right in. The Super Sight is a clone of the Bomar sight. I will check my Limited and see if a Bomar will fit the slide cut. The Gin and tonic is kicking in
so I will wait till later.

I filed down an old 1911 hardball (taller than the Benelli) type rear sight to fit the dovetail bacause the existing Benelli sight was too low (hit about 6 inches low at 50 yards). Now hits are about 3.5 - 4 inches high at 50 and about on at 100, or at least I can hit 12 inch plates at 100 with a center hold.
I like the Benelli rife sights.
