    Benelli M4 magazine extension

    I have a few questions about a Benelli M4 shotgun
    1. I am in california and was wondering if the max amount of rounds is 10 for a shotgun? Would that be 10 in the magazine + 1 in chamber

    2. What is the best way to increase the capacity of this shotgun?
    A one piece:

    B a extension:

    C what brand of extension would run reliably with this shotgun?

    Please post personal experiences with these parts and links to products if possible.
    Thank You.

    You need to read and understand 922(r) less you commit a federal felony.

      I want to stay within full compliance of the law. Could someone spell it out for me?
      So if I was to purchase a 1 pc 7+1 extension made in the US would this keep me 922(r) compliant?

        I am on my silly Iphone right now at airport, but I will link you what I feel is the best tube for the M4 and I will also link you discussion on the sill 922 what ever law when I get home or tomorrow.

        Did you get black or camo?

          Understanding 922r



          If you comply with 922 r and want a good extended mag tube for your M4, I recommend this...

              I had a DMW extended tube (but without the other US made parts for 922r compliance), and after reading all the 922r discussions across the boards, I've come to the decision to put my OEM tube back to the 5-round limit. The DOJ has issued too many letters about their position now, and it's not worth the risk for me. Obviously, there is no resolution on how they will actually enforce the law, but for me I am not taking the risk (and expense) to be a test case. Others may feel differently -- everyone has different levels of risk tolerance. If the US made parts are readily available, that would be awesome.

                Just to clarify, you probably had a typo above -- 922r would be a BATF issue, not a DOJ issue.

                  Benelli and Daves Metal Works extension tubes, are the only tubes you can use on your M4 if you are in LAPD.

                  I'd get the one piece tube over the extension if I were going to do it.
                  I move slow but I make up for it by shooting poorly.

                  When I hit the lotto I'm only shooting factory.

                    Go and get a full length, US made magazine tube.

                        Would a 1 pc mag extension still be 922r compliant?

                        I was wondering if I'm not military or LEO would the 1pc mag extension installed keep me 922r compliant?
                        I don't want to rustle any ATF feathers or get locked up.

                          If you have 10 or less imported parts on your Benelli you are in compliance.

                          I suggest you visit the Benelli forum for more detail. http://www.benelliusa.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=17

                            Mickey D what other parts do you have that are U.S. made to get you under 10? If I want the same set up what else would I have to purchase w/ the 1 pc mag extension to stay 922(r) compliant? Please post links and prices.

                              Did yours come with the wolf spring? If so is it realy that much better than stock? I just ordered my tube last week and it comes with the wolf spring but just curious on the hype.
