MAC 1014, M2 and M4 clones?

[cris6367]

Who has experience with the Turkish Benelli clones being imported by SDS / MAC?

Price is good. I don't particularly have a need but I do like the sort of old school look of the 1014 with the wood furniture.

Are these worth a darn? The Turk shotguns aren't generally known for durability but these guns are supposed to be built to a higher standard or some such.

I'm also curious for what it's worth. It's hard to trust the paid reviewers on YouTube.

I wouldn't bother with a tube fed gun personally unless it's for hunting or something. $300-$500 gets a lynx12. Way more reliable than saiga 12, 300 rounds per minute fire rate (same as the $20000 Aa-12 full auto shotgun), light recoil (ultra, ultra light with a muzzle brake), mag fed = fast reloads, capacity of 5, 8, 10, 12, 15, 20, or 25 rounds. I sold all my tube fed shotguns after buying the lynx despite using them for decades. There is simply no comparison. If you want to spend over $2k genisis arms or fostech origin have more AR like mag fed shotguns. I see videos of guys absorbing the recoil from those benellis and I just shake my head. It's not a quality thing it's just that there are so much better options in terms of recoil, loading, fire rate etc.

Meh ignore that guy above my co-worker and I ordered 1 and we shall see I have read and watched good reviews especially if you like to tinker with guns. I wouldn't buy if it's your only shotgun but I would if it is your 2nd or third and you willing to test it.

If you want a dead nuts reliable high value low price shotgun get a Mossburg 590/500 or maverick for a first shotgun. But if you want to evaluate and possibly get a great deal on a shotgun that could be just as good as a 2k benelli M4 get one these for the hell of it for less than $400.
good luck either way

Thing is you can't find spare parts if you're the type to keep them on hand- otherwise my experience with Turkish guns has been good.

It's a Benelli m4 clone parts are 100% interchangeable
