A mainstay of military and law enforcement as well as competition shooting, the venerable Benelli M4 is a must-have semi-auto shotgun for any serious collector. The M4’s sheer adaptability and proven track record make for an incredibly desirable firearm.
Its immense popularity has prompted a number of manufacturers, including Panzer Arms, to develop high-quality replicas of the Benelli. The Panzer M4 is just as dependable, robust, and customizable but can typically be purchased at a fraction of the cost.
The Panzer M4: An Exceptional Turkish Benelli Clone
Panzer Arms has produced a remarkably accurate copy of the Benelli M4 platform, including the famous A.R.G.O (Auto-Regulating Gas-Operated) piston-driven semi-auto action and tactical features. It has an 18.5” barrel, ghost ring sights, and an optics rail.
Additionally, the Panzer M4 is outfitted with an extended magazine tube capable of holding five 12 gauge 3-inch shot shells. Sling attachment points are affixed to the tube and each gun ships with a full 3-choke set, so the Panzer M4 is ready to go right out of the box.
Parts Compatibility and Customization
Many shooters opt to customize their firearm to fit their needs. Fortunately, the Panzer M4 is compatible with a vast assortment of factory and aftermarket Benelli M4 parts - including stocks, sights, and magazine tubes.
This affords the operator a high degree of freedom and personalization, which in turn allows the shotgun to be used for a variety of applications ranging from sport shooting to self-defense.
The Panzer Arms Tactical Adjustable Telescopic Stock
Panzer Arms also offers a number of accessories, including the M4 Tactical Adjustable Telescopic Stock. An ideal replacement for the factory Panzer M4 stock, it includes three positions - fully collapsed, mid-position, and fully extended.
This stock is easy to install without tools and greatly improves the overall handling of the firearm, as well as the length of pull. Panzer’s M4 Tactical Adjustable Telescopic Stock is an incredibly functional, aesthetically pleasing upgrade.
