- Benelli M4/M1014 owner's manual
The M1014 uses Benelli's ARGO twin short-stroke piston system paired with a rotating bolt for reliable semi-automatic operation. This example presents a two-tone finish: the 18.5" steel barrel, front sight base, and receiver extension show a lighter gray/green tone, while the receiver, magazine tube, and most small parts are black, delivering a durable, two-tone appearance.
Sight alignment is fast and repeatable with the fully adjustable ghost-ring rear sight and a wing-protected front post. A factory receiver-top Picatinny rail offers a solid mounting surface for optics or accessories as needed.
The barrel is marked with a three-star (***) stamp indicating a fixed Modified choke. Chambers are cut for 2 3/4" and 3" shells, and the magazine provides a 5+1 capacity. The ribbed two-piece polymer fore-end, cross-bolt safety, and polymer pistol grip support practical handling.
This civilian M1014 configuration includes a single-position, skeletonized, fixed stock with a 14.0 length of pull. Additional details include clear Italian proof marks with the boxed CU date code, Gardone proof symbols, and the Benelli U.S.A. Accokeek import mark, confirming Italian origin and 2019 production.
