How do you like the bolt release? I've been thinking about getting one but wanted to get some user feedback first.

Sounds like a great shotgun you're putting together. Not that far off from what I did to mine. 4k+ rounds and haven't had the first issue. Awesome weapons..

Man, it was tough to find one of these.
I was on a few 'notify my' lists and they all started emailing me maybe 6 months ago. I can't remember where I got this one but you may have some luck on gunbroker or even google search (doubt google will be productive). Just keep your eyes open is all I can say. |

Thanks for the link on the fixed stock. Gonna pick one up as well. Where are you guys finding the factory C-stocks? I refuse to pay $600 for a +/- $150 stock (LE price). My M4 has sat bone stock for 2 years. If carriercomp ever gets on their game and starts actually putting out enough product to fulfill the demand I'll buy one of their mag tubes some day too...

Here's mine, I'm still not to the point that I trust it enough to keep bedside, it lives in the safe.
I bought it in 2006, and took it to a five day shotgun class. Fourth day during the night shoot it wouldn't cycle. The reason is that the left piston broke into two pieces. To make a long story short, it took moving a mountain to get a new piston from Benelli. It's the four port barrel. The parts are oversize charging handle, oversize safety, and Mesa Tactical picitinny rail.  |

Had one, sold it, then bought another. I'll use the promag and mod it if necessary to work properly before I pay $500 for a factory one (if the LE purchase doesn't work out...) |

Can all your M4 guns be “ghost loaded” (without making any alteration to the bolt carrier)? |

Question: Can all your M4 guns be “ghost loaded” (without making any alteration to the bolt carrier)? Yep...... Drop the bolt on a empty chamber.
Fill the magazine to its max capacity. holding the gun firmly pull back the bolt just far enough that you can push a round under the bolt on to the plate. then put another round in the chamber |

I was curious if the M4 got the same treatment. |

Wasn't happy with having $2k tied up in a shotgun. Sold it. Wasn't happy with other options I tried and always compared them to the M4. Bought another M4...

I wish SF would go ahead and figure out a way to boost the M300 up to 500(+) lumens. On my 870, I have an X300U and absolutely love it. Thinking hard about switching it over to this weapon. I'll take a few pics from the other side tonight and upload them here for you. |
