ktm300 Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Last night I was just about to go to bed and popped up gunbroker only to see a new in the box M2 Field 28" for < $900 with less than 15 minutes to go. TMALSS I ended up getting it for $906. Impulse buying gets me in trouble. I already have a 26" M1 that I have only extended the tube and put a Crums lifter on and I love it. I have not found the 26" to be too long but I wonder about the 28". I guess $906 and the cost of getting the barrel cut and tapped puts it pretty close to a new 24". I wonder if the lifters the same on the M1's and M2's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ktm300 Posted May 18, 2011 Author Share Posted May 18, 2011 (edited) OK so the impulse just got more expensive. I am having the gun shpped directly to Benny and having him turn it into a work of art that goes bang. I guess my 26" M1 will be up for sale in about a month.

TRUBL Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 The 26" barrel should fit right on the M2 And for most matches.....26" will not be a hinderance, and neither will a 28" barrel for that matter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have only shot local matches but I never noticed the 26" M1 getting in the way. I did not know the barrels would swap. I just got off the phone with Benny, his suggestion was to cut it to 24" so about 1/2" of the extension tube sticks out past the barrel. I guess that is so it hits on the tube instead of the end of the barrel? I am now just like a kid at Christmas. This 3gun bug that I caught is starting to get into my wallet more and more.

Jesse Tischauser Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 I wonder if the lifters the same on the M1's and M2's? They are close but not exactly the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
