Sold/Expired ARFCOM 3-Gun Edition Benelli Shotgun

[Burk Cornelius]

I don't know if this qualifies as a "great" deal but I am putting it here because we don't have an "average deal" forum

wow, arfcom is branding their own guns. I wonder who does the mods for them.

 

[ShaneP]

Seems like a decent deal to me. $300 over the $1199 cost of the stock M2.

 

[Wall]

with the exception of the welded lifter, I figured up those add on accessories to $201.


I mention that I wonder who's doing the mods because if they're just slapping this stuff on, it doesn't mean it's race ready. This add only mentions the lifter being welded/extended, it doesn't say anything about being tuned to the gun. It doesn't mention the shell catch or the loading port, etc. There's still alot missing from this shotgun before it can be considered a race ready gun. I'm not crapping on it, I just want to make sure you guys understand what this is before you buy it. It looks like it's simply a stock gun that someone has added parts to.


The work offered by Mike or Benny or Kurt/Trapr is well worth looking into.

Arfcom isn't supposed to have shotguns silly rabbit.

Tony is a wise man. This is well said.

Tony is a wise man.

I'm glad someone agrees with me

That looks like the benelli edition 3 gun with a ARFCOM logo rather than a benelli logo and the $2400 price tag.

Makes me think Accurate Iron needs to put a tube, sight, charging handle and bolt release on a gun and call it the Happy Meal Deal.

Thought I read that the extended lifter was included?

 

[Larry Marmora]

From the site:

"Starting with an ultra-reliable Benelli M2 w/Comfortech Stock, you get your choice of a 21 or 24" barrel with a Nordic Components +5 Magazine extension (8+1 overall) or +6 for 24" barrel (9+1).

In addition, the following components are added: NC Barrel Clamp, NC Magazine Follower, NC Charging Handle, NC Extended Bolt Release, Hi-Viz Tri-Comp Fiber Optic Front Sight, Welded and Extended Lifter, and Ghost Load and Out-of-Battery Bolt Mods. Includes the factory C, IC, M, IM, and F chokes, as well as a choke wrench.

Pretty much a complete ready to run gun with a lifetime warranty."

If I had $1499, I'd probably buy one.

I don't have $1499 though. :unknw:

I wonder who is doing those lifter and bolt mods?

 

[45recoil]

.....but it doesn't have a Accurate Iron sticker on the extension...without that it...just...looks.....weird!

 

[jtischauser]

If you did it yourself it would cost the following approximately.

Benelli M2 - $1200
Nordic bolt handle - $25
Nordic bolt release $14
Nordic mag tube - $80
Nordic mag Tube clamp $32
Nordic Follower $ 19
Hi viz sight $20
Bolt modifications $75 (not certain on this cost)
Welded lifter $50
AR15.com logo $Priceless

Total $1545

I couldn't agree more! My benellis laugh when they sit next to imitations in the rack.

 

[45recoil]

Omg u set them next to non AI guns? Gross!!

 

[hermnrob]

I have a beautiful AI shotgun that runs great, but It didn't come back with a sticker. I know I'm over here in TN but damn, now I feel weird. Although the sticker looks good, mine still rocks without it. Guess I'll order one so I can advertise my sweet shotgun.

I still can't thank Mike enough for the great work.

 

[45recoil]

Yes get a sticker...all the cool kids gottem. I hope to get a Accurate Iron Benelli in the near future, and its gotta have a Accurate Iron sticker on it....its just gotta

 

[hermnrob]

Receive a PM from Mike and it was a TN problem. TOTAL NINCOMPOOP didn't check side pocket of case. Now it will have some Bling on it.
