Benelli... What did I just get myself into?

[SCPAKMAN]

Been shooting my buddies M4 and liked it. I didn't want to spend the money on a M4, so wne the cheap route and bought a Supernova. Getting it out jail next week.

Lookup Hatsan Escort MP-A. It won't break the bank and its a sweet semi-auto shotty.

Hey on this topic, I got my hk m1s90 in my possession finally... It's got the Laser Products (now Surefire) lighted forearm on it, but I have zero use for a light on this gun so I want to swap it with an original forearm...

Does anyone have an early m1 forearm (apparently there are changes to the latest m1s) that I can buy or want to trade + cash for the surefire I'm taking off???

I also have a mesa 6 round side saddle available in case anyone is interested...

^^ wants the one that converts from semi to pump like the franchi spas

m3, I think they still sell them. Cool idea, but from what I remember it has a plastic "selector" that is prone to breaking. So something like that, like the spas it doesn't have a great reputation.

Number of people got those Benelli M3 here. They looked like good deal to have pump and self loading action in one. But it showed that like everything that do all, it does not do anything good enough. It is neither good self loader nor good pump action. Problems with them all the time.

I have an M3S90, in fact that was my first gun. I'm never selling it.

But montrala, I have to agree with you. The pump/semi feature is very cool. But the gun does not act like a traditional Benelli auto-loader. Once the bolt goes back the gun shoots a shell into the carrier, doing slug change over drills is a bit difficult.

But, like I said, I'm never getting rid of that gun.

I got myself M1S90. I have yet to find if it was good idea.

I'm used to pump actions.

BTW Most problems with M3S90 that I see are not "technical" per se. It is mostly user induced problems, but complicated nature of this shotgun seem to be a magnet for this. Probably if someone would "master" M3S90 it can be valid option.
