In this video we take a look at the Panzer M4 I just bought and compare it to the SDS S4 which I purchased 2 yrs ago.

This by far is the best and if not the most thorough comparison of two M4 Benelli clones… Too many videos are comparing the Apple vs oranges…not in your case this video provided me what I was looking for as a budget consumers in my decision making where do I spend my money on a clone vs clone…. Thank you very much for time and effort 👏

I love the MAC 1014. Runs 100% with everything except the sub-1220 FPS light target loads. With anything 1200 FPS or above or a "Game Load", it's functions great. I love the first one so much I just bought a second one.

Man, I miss the time when you did a lot of these parts kit builds! The longer choke may be for an suppressor. I had to pay ~130 Dollars over here in Germany for that special choke
@user-do1fq8oy9c8 ай бұрын
I think the choke with external threads is so you can fit a breaching attachment.

I have both of the shotguns in the video and the Aksa s4 purchased in the past year and the Panzer is definitely the better of the 3. The main problem I had with the SDS was developing a failure to fire randomly until it just stopped. On the bolt of the SDS there is a grub screw on the front instead of a cross pin. After about 300 rounds the grub screw worked loose on the front of the bolt and prevented the bolt from going into battery. Replaced the grub screw and added some red loctite before installing it. I'm about 200 rounds of 00buck with no issues so far after replacement. Eventually I'll buy a new bolt with a cross pin to remove the issue altogether.

Could it be that Benelli just overcharges their customer for the name? I would love to see a long term comperison between a good clone vs benelli m4, then we can trully see what the actual difference is.

I had watched your video a few weeks back and I could not remember who's video or the name of the mag tube manufacturer was. So I had to go through a few to find this again. Good info. My M4 clone shipped today, a Gforce that is on sale at sportsman's guide for just under $300 and free shipping.

You mentioned adding U.S. parts to the M4 before adding the plus 2 extension. Can you do a quick video on what parts you would change and why ? Thank you

After that light recoil round that failed to eject, I would’ve checked for a barrel obstruction before I fired another round.
@williampowell66697 ай бұрын
Good video to compare the two guns. Did you notice any difference in the build quality of the bolt and receiver between the two? Curious if they were interchangeable. I do notice a lot of similarities between these guns and my Tristar Raptor ATAC bought in 2012.
@brianminkcАй бұрын
The difference in qaulity is negligable. Fit and finish might be better but the functionality of the guns is very close. Now if I was military or Swat I would want the Benelli. But for most Americans the Turkish shotguns are more than adequate and depending on them for self defense is not a problem. I have a Tristar G2 that is about 8 years old. I have put about 400 rounds various brands and loads, birdshot, turkey, buckshot and slugs it has never failed to load and go bang yet. I will say my G2 is a slightly different design it has one collar for the gas piston, whereas, these M4 clones have the two gas cylinders.

If that plastic sling attachment is actually part of the mold and not a separate piece from the rest of the stock, it's going to be better than the steel inserted sling attachment point. Putting those steel inserts into plastic and doing it right is not as easy as it seems.

From what I heard Panzer makes better shotguns that function much better however there stocks are junk. The other Turkish shotgun dont function as well. My advice is get the Panzer and upgrade the stock or stop being a cheap AZZ and pay thousands more for the real Italian Stallion. Cheap toliet paper YES cheap firearms NO.
