BUYING BENELLI MP90S FROM LARRY'S GUNS?

Post by golfer47 »

I am thinking about buying a benelli mp90s from larrys guns. Has anyone ever bought from them? I live in Texas and have talked to a local gun shop and they will handle the transfer. My question is I am very cautious about charging the cost on a credit card or sending money, given the amount of scams on the web. Any help would be appreciated.

I think you'll get a pretty universal "OK" for doing business with Larry. Almost everyone who buys a new Pardini or Benelli goes through him. If he was in the least untrustworthy he'd be out of business by now.

Quite frankly, I have bought several items from Larry over several years. Since the death of Don Nygord he has been the source for many great European pistols. I would have no compunctions about dealing with Larry after all he is a Marine---Semper Fi!----"Doc"

When you get your MP90, please tell us about it. It is damned hard to find any information about this gun.

Thanks

I was talking to the gun dealer that might handle the transfer and he told me the reason that they are hard to get is this gun was once on the baned weapon list because of the magazine in front of the trigger.He does not seem eager to handle the transfer.Has anyone ever heard of this?

I forgot to ask what is a buffer for the benelli mp90s? On several posts people have replace the original buffer with one from Larrys guns.What does it do and where does it go?

Something was banned in Texas? THat sounds more like the California list and even here we can get a MP90.

I bought one from Larry earlier this year.

I purchased a 90S from Larry's a year ago, had some problems feeding and extracting. It was sent back to Larry's and was returned repaired pretty quickly. It's been running fine since and is a great shooter.

It's a plastic pad which cushions the backward movement of the bolt. It can deteriorate with age and/or wear, but is easy to replace.

I finally did it.I bought a Walther GSP Expert instead of the Benelli mp90s.The reason was that the Benelli was back ordered for about 60 days.It was for more money but the quality of the Walter is very good.I fired about 20 rounds threw it and I am pleased with the results.
