Hi guys,

I see these are out now and a few of you guys have them. How much are they going for?

Also, will a version with a full length magazine and a standard stock be available? Anyone know for sure?

Thanks.

P.S. for those of you who have one, how do you like it?

I think they list in the $1500 range and I've seen them selling in the $1300 range.

MSRP is $1575.00, but I've seen 'em as low as $1350.00. Yes, you can get a standard stock ($90.00 without a pistol grip), and a two shot magazine extension($67.00), hopefully, will be available for many by the end of April... Cost of Pistol Grip Stock($110.00) is about $60 less than the Commemorative's skeleton stock($170.00) which does NOT adjust. This may change if the AWB is finally put down... If you can, also get the Meprolight Ghost Ring Tritium Inserts ($78.00), as they're really worth it... The Ghost Ring Sights are fully adjustable, and the weapon is very accurate... Now, as to ammo capacity of the basic M1014/M4S90, it holds 4+1, and with the removal of the plug, and the carrier cradling another round, brings it up to 5+1+1, or 7 rounds total... Keep that safety on! Now, with the addition of the two shot magazine extension, it goes to 7+1+1, or nine rounds total... Adequate for just about any task- at least I think so... A note about the round riding on the carrier- it functions flawlessly, but is not fast to position... If carrying weapon in "cruiser safe" mode, it's with 5rds in the magazine, one on the carrier, and an empty chamber (5+1+0). You must depress the cartridge drop lever, just forward of the trigger guard. This will bring the round lying on the carrier into position for the round to be put into the chamber by the bolt... Then, you've got one in the spout, and 5 still in the mag... Cruiser safe, is the way I keep mine at home for H.D. That added second, and the brisk clash of metal on metal is unmistakable- the sound of a last nail being driven into a coffin lid... Gets the undivided attention of BGs... Not fast to set-up, but another thing to think about, if you have a Benelli M1014/M4S90...

Regards and Respects...
Carter, oldpaladin, out...

P.S., At the risk of offending others, I will say that they're the most reliable, dependable, and fun weapons I've ever shot or owned... As to buckshot and slugs, they're also the most accurate I've ever shot or owned... So, pinkr1234, maybe you're wondering, "Is this worth the cost? Is it the right one for me?" I can't answer for anybody but me, but I wish I'd done a bit better with my money- I wish I'd bought three or four more for family and friends... If you've got to have somebody guard your back, the best equipment is not too expensive... After all, it's your life, or that of family or friends, isn't it? Yeah, there are others that are cheaper, in fact, much cheaper, BUT, you do get what you pay for... Good luck, good hunting, and keep your powder dry...
