firewalker Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 I just aquired a benelli M1 tactical, 181/2 barrel ghost ring sights, looks like a +2 extension. It came with improved and full choke tubes. My question is with a +2 extension thats 5 shells + 1 carrier, It appears that a +4 will extend beyond the end of barrel so before i order one i need advice on how to get the most from my shotgun. one where to find best extension, or add new barrel legnth, plus what chokes might be usefull. Thanks in advance Frederick Haring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeFoley Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 Shooter's Connection has these, and Chuck has been through this himself. Call him and he'll be glad to help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texasag93 Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 The +4 will look like this. I just put some skateboard tape over the tube to keep from getting it powder burned. It works well. My barrel didn't have chokes tubes. I had them installed. I have the little rifle sights. Mine started with a 24" ported barrel and ghost ring. I had the ghost ring removed and another used 18.5 " barrel installed. I like the sights over the ghost ring. TXAG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AH6IP Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 And Beevo! But I have to admit, the "Corp" is pretty cool. To this day, when they mention "UT" up here (Tn), I always remind them what it REALLY stands for. And of course, get a K M A look. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hopalong Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 Jerry !!!! I am surprised !!!! I am an original Texan too, but ORANGE is a whole lot prettier than Burnt orange...... and it is TU (Texas University) and UT THE University of TENNESSEE !!!!! Firewalker, Enjoy the Benelli !!!! Jerry (AH6) is working on some tricks for this shotgun, sounds good to me even though I am a Remington man. drop him a line. Hop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firewalker Posted April 28, 2005 Author Share Posted April 28, 2005 OK now that i have my extension tube problem solved . I found that my shot fun hates Fiochhi game and target loads. 1 1/8 oz. SO what do You guys do? Can i reduce the recoil spring or is there another trick to make them cycle? I was forced to use high brass at a side match today and I know there is a better way.

texasag93 Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 I am currently shooting Federal heavy field load. 1 1/4 oz 7.5, 3 1/4 dram. $5.50 a box and run good in my M1. TXAG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
