Here's my opinion about adding a lot of extras to a stock Benelli M4:

If it isn't a functional improvement, why add mods?

Ok, rate my m4.



Full length tube and spring, enlarged bolt handle, enlarged bolt release.

It must be your wet dream, as those are the three main functional improvements, if you want to call them that.

Terrific shotgun you have there Duggan. My kind of weapon.

Enjoy it in good health.

Here's my simple credo about adding all manner of junk to a perfectly good Benelli M4:

If it isn't a functional improvement, don't add it.

I realize that this may anger the teenagers and members of the 'Video Games Rock' generation. Well, frankly, I don't care.

Hey, tell me where to go and where I'm wrong. But be prepared to defend your argument.

Greg

I'm going to add a cupholder for my rockstar's... and a pouch for my i-pod

Functional right?

Ha Ha Ha.....thats funny

Hey I have an idea for you - I heard that some folks buy a speedfeed stock and put their lip gloss in it instead of an extra round. Whatever floats your boat, I say.

If it isn't a functional improvement, don't add it.

What is your definition of "functional improvement"?

What is your definition of "functional improvement"?

Mike, functional improvements can certainly mean different things to different people, no doubt about it. I think we can agree though that some things aren't functional improvements, can't we?

Let me try one extreme example just to start things off...how about desert camo on a weapon that will never be within 1,000 miles of a desert?

What about you - can you give some examples of non-functional improvements (an oxymoron, but you know what I mean)? Surely you can think of a few...it's kind of like pornography - hard to define but you know it when you see it.

...I'd add collapsible stock to the list, unless you're going to shoot with a vest or fast rope from a helicopter with it. The collapsible stock is tacticool but serves no functional purpose for the average guy. It's just one more moveable part to break.
