Re: Benelli MP90 trigger group.

Thanks for the reply. I assume it's safe to shoot the way it is now? Multiple dry fire (plug in of course) and all seems well. The pin that holds the trigger group in place actually had to be tapped a couple times with a brass punch to be seated, so maybe there is enough downward pressure to hold it...

Benelli MP90 trigger group.

Calling all Benelli experts! I bought a trigger group for a Benelli MP90 to install on my MP95. I have a couple questions. First, with the original plastic trigger group, I can remove the bolt with the trigger group in place. With the new aluminum trigger group, I can not remove the bolt. What's up ...

Re: Oiling Top Round in Semi-Auto Magazines?

I shoot a Benelli MP95, close to the original poster's MP90. I used to place a tiny bit of Pro Shot CLP on the first round every other mag, or once every 10 shots. Then I decided to try what Larry Carter always said, keep the chamber clean! That helped a lot, but it seemed to only last 60-70 rounds....

Re: grip for Ruger 22/45

I used one of those Houge grip sleeves on my old model Ruger 22/45. Problem with that was you have to take it off to clean the pistol, it covers the take down lever. After only a couple cleanings, the grip sleeve tore.

Re: Dr Gmünder Multi Iris flipups

I'm at a loss as to how can these multi iris lens be of benefit. As far as I know, consistent and repeatable head position is a part of accurate shooting. If you happen to change holes in those lenses from shot to shot, consistency is lost. I'm English only, so maybe being able to read that web page...

Re: Benelli extractor popping off

I shot another 50 rounds through my Benelli .32 wadcutter tonight, not a failure of any kind. I must have gotten lucky with my pick for the extractor spring. This makes 100 rounds, which is the first time this pistol has gone more than 30 rounds without an extraction or ejection problem. Now if I ca...

Re: Benelli extractor popping off

So far so good on my extractor fix. What I did was buy a "universal" bag of small gun springs from gunsprings.com there was something like 100 small compression springs of various sizes. With a new extractor and plunger. I tried various springs until I found one that was the correct diamet...

Re: Ruger MKII grips

If you mean any / other target grips on a Ruger MkII, yes. I've tried Vitarbo and Rink. The Vitarbo grips were ok, but felt...

Benelli extractor popping off

Pistol: Benelli MP95E .32 wadcutter. Are there any tips or tricks to stop the extractor from popping off? It's happened to mine three times now, and this time I lost all three parts, extractor, plunger and spring. Thank you.

Re: Shooting Discipline Information for New Shooters

This is actually a very good idea, and someone that has the time really should do this. I had a coworker ask me about getting into Precision Pistol (Bullseye) because I bring up the topic on occasion. He had no idea that he could buy something like a used Ruger MkII for ~$300 and be set just fine as...

Re: can pardini 250 bar be filled by car inflator

rajemessage, are you confusing BAR and PSI? There are industrial / commercial air compressors like you would see in a factory or automotive shop, that will pump to 250 PSI. But not BAR.

Re: Rink Grip

I have Rink grips size small on a Benelli MP95 and a Ruger MkII. I would say they are very close to the same feel, but not identical. These are very different pistols, so I'm sure that has something to do with it.

Re: IZH 35

I sold a pair of IZH35M pistols not too long ago. One purchased new in 2001 that had ~12k rounds through it. The other purchased new in 2002 that had ~5k rounds through it. New I paid $410 each. Sold the pair for $400 each. Reason sold, lack of parts availability in the USA.

Re: Benelli MP90/95 parts.

The Benelli Italy web site will not even allow me to send them a message. A country is a required field, and the USA is not even on the list. This is getting frustrating.

I did send an e-mail to Benelli USA to see about importing some for me, nope, not a chance. "We do long guns, not handguns."

I have not asked Benelli Italy, but will.

Re: Benelli MP90/95 parts.

What makes you think it needs new springs? Needed or not, I change recoil springs on all my pistols about every 5000 rounds. My .22 started having feed issues (yes the chamber was clean) so in desperation I removed spring, intentionally stretched it to be longer, and the feed issue went away. It pr...

Re: Benelli MP90/95 parts.

Hoping to find something sooner than this fall. Both my Benelli pistols are in need of recoil springs as soon as possible. Bottom line, it's my fault. Normal people keep a years worth of "consumable" parts on hand. But not dummy me, I buy one at a time. Looks like I'll end up with a pair o...

Are there any replacement parts suppliers for Benelli pistols across the globe that can ship to the USA with little to no hassles?
