Anyone know of other competent shotgun smiths? I recently purchased a Benelli M4 Entry and I'm waiting on Form 4. However I see thatBenelli Defense overseas offers a Benelli M3 Entry (14") model that has me wanting. Reached out to Steve Rose based on many posts of his Benelli work, to query about chopping and sight placement on a factor 11608 to creat this yeti. His response:
~"The thinner midsection (after being cut) limits choke tube threading options and causes the front sight to be too low for regulation. For these reasons we do not offer shortening or sight installation services for longer the M3 or M4 barrels." ~
However, I'm not looking to have threaded for chokes and would think sight height could be properly mitigated by taking measurements prior to chopping
