Hi Jeff,

If you do not mind me asking, how do you like the new LED Surefire compared to the incan units you have used in the past?

I have a Surefire 618 on my 870, and have been debating one of the newer LED's, to get the longer run time.

Thanks very much, and stay safe.

I really like the LED that's on my shotty because it's shorter (going to a shorter barrel soon), has a longer battery life and it seems brighter. Also the one that's on that gun runs on just one battery.

Hey Jeff:

Re: the 870, trap sear? what is the deal. What improvement does this make on the 870. Heck i own two, i forget to pump them, just ask GOTM4. But i love me an upgrade.
Thanks

Matt I like the trap sear spring because it smooths the feel of the trigger which in turn makes it feel a little lighter.

Matt I believe this is the part from Brownells.

If the optic goes down I can simply shoot through the tube of the t1

With no sights whatsoever? OK...I guess if that works for you. But you're looking at potentially a lot of collateral damage there. Me, I'd rather have the option of sighted fire. I mean...the iron sights are already there, why not make them accessible by making the T-1 QD? Just my $0.02. YMMV.

All done, finally, switched to a smaller optic:

Titleist, are you getting a 1/3 bottom co-witness with that set up?

I get NO co-witness from that setup.

A QD mount would push it even higher. Trust me, I tried.

Thank you for the info. That confirms what I had hoped. I'll be ordering one.

Stay safe.

I finally have my Benelli M1 Super 90 pretty much where I want it.

I have added:

*Benelli factory extension giving me 7+1+1(ghost load) in an 18.5" barrel.
*Surefire forend with Cree LED conversion bulb.
*Mesa Tactical 6 round side saddle.
*Wolf 25% extra power spring, now it eats EVERYTHING I feed it.
*Swapped out the pistol grip for a field stock. Haven't decided which way I will run it yet. Still training with both.
*Painted the front sight orange

I would still like to add:
*Nordic components charging handle
*Barrel/mag clamp
*Sling, but I can't decide if I want to run my single point sling or have a dedicated two point on it... suggestions?
*I will most likely Cerakote it at some point.

started out like this...


Now it sits like this...

after putting her together from parts from a Wingmaster (bolt group) and a Express Magnum along with Hogue and Mesa Tactical and Daniel Defense....this is what you get.
