Benelli MR1

dfletcher

I'm picking one up this week. The gun does not have a threaded muzzle and I'd like to have it threaded (1/2 X 28 TPI - standard AR)and a brake attached. I'd just as soon use an FH but CA law doesn't allow it on a detach mag centerfire long gun - I know, foolish. Has anyone had their MR1 barrrel threaded? The barrel doesn't attach to a large receiver per se, so I'm wondering if the barrel can be threaded without removing it from the "receiver".

I'm picking up a Benelli MR1 and will mount a 1 to 4X scope on the thing, get it as low as possible and will remove the rear sight to do it. I'm told the angle of the stock drops a bit so that any scope ends up sitting kind of high.

I think the MR1 stock is just a Benelli shotgun stock and that there are supposedly risers available - does anyone know if such a thing is available, found nothing on the Benelli site.

Check for a generic brand in Midway...they should have something by Galazan or somebody with the Bennelli being so popular.

Thanks, there's a Choate that may fit, Brownells has Cheekeeze that may do. A company named Urbino sells stocks with risers but they are pistol grip style - I can't have that in CA, the "CA OK" version has a "conventional" stock. [}:)]
