The M4 Tactical uses Benelli’s Auto-Regulating Gas-Operated (ARGO) dual short-stroke piston system, providing reliable operation across 2-3/4 in and 3 in 12-gauge loads. It retains the factory 18.5 in barrel, a 5+1 capacity, and LPA adjustable ghost-ring rear with a protected post front sight for fast, precise alignment.
This example is thoughtfully upgraded. An aftermarket tactical rail is installed, and the handguard is an extended ventilated aluminum unit for added control. Manipulations are enhanced by an oversized bolt handle and an enlarged bolt-release button. The loading port has been opened and paired with an extended carrier/lifter for efficient loading.
The stock is synthetic with a telescoping design and an integral pistol grip, set to a 13.5 in length of pull. Quick-detach sling solutions are integrated with a rear QD swivel and a forward-left QD socket, offering flexible carry options.
Markings and provenance details include Italian proof marks and BENELLI U.S.A. CORP - ACCOKEEK, MD - MADE IN ITALY import markings, LPA ITALY sight markings, and receiver marking "m4." The model lineage traces to the M1014 adopted by the U.S. Marine Corps, underscoring the platform’s service pedigree.
