I wouldn't buy one because I am done buying shotguns forever.
But the Battlefield Vegas owner reports that the Benelli M4 is the one shotgun that will NOT die. |

I've owned 2, at different times. To me, it's an expensive novelty. I bought it as a toy and for defensive purposes, and realized my rifle weighs less, is shorter, and holds more ammunition. It's all personal preference, but those were my reasons.

The round is pretty much useless. 12g is good for chipmunks and maybe a rat; but it would probably bounce off most people.

Promag makes an exact copy of a factory Benelli collapsible stock for about $120.
Get a tube for it around $75 and youre done. My m4 purchase was all that I hoped for. It can except chokes so with a plug it can perform nearly all shotgun duties. |

It's a good shotgun, Marines use it, duel rod gas operated system. If one rod breaks it'll keep running, that's the idea at least. It's a heavy shotgun though. Will cycle bird-shot barely, does better with buckshot and slugs. Not bad on the felt recoil due to it's weight. Yeah it looks pretty pimp with the collapsible stock.

I've never had a failure to cycle with birdshot. Shot a few boxes screwing around breaking clays. Did pretty well, plus less frequent reloads. I do clean and lube but its soft recoil makes it fun for people who want to try a "tactical" shotgun. |

Save yourself a few hundred bucks (at least) and buy an M2, M3, or a gas gun like the FN or Remington. The M4 is nothing special.
Or, you know, just buy a rifle if you want the best tool for the job. |

I hate to say it, I love American made products, but they are worth it. I've owned several different semi auto's. Both Remington's and Mossberg's, hands down for out of the box gun the M4 outclasses everything I've ever owned.
No issues to report, I have close to 1500 rounds through mine. Look in to an M2 if you're not a dedicated shotgun guy, they're are cheaper and run just as good. I know this because I own one, recoil is a little stiffer but whatever you're a man right? |
