Which NR semi can hold the most 2 3/4?

Beretta 1301 and Benelli (among others) can hold 8-rounds of 2.75” shells. You’d have to buy the extended mag tubes and have them plugged less one round however. So the tube will hold six, plus one in chamber and one on the carrier (known as carrier or ghost loading).

get something with a 3.5' chamber and an after market tube that can ghost load. Permanantly plug the tube at 5.9 rounds of 3.5" (cannot accept a 6th). Add a MatchsaverZ and you have a semi with 10 rounds, given the 10th is on it not in it. There are options out there but most 3.5' chamberings come designed as hunting shotguns, not neccessarily ideal for competition.
Not sure. Casey at Tacord could answer that (give him a call). He mods Versamax all the time. I only have Remington and Mossberg pump guns so can’t help you here. The easiest gun to buy is the 1301 Tactical (18.5”) or Comp (21”) and have Casey plug the Nordic Components mag tube. It’s a fast mod, costs f**k all and screws right into the 1301 in like 2 seconds. And the price for the gun and modded tube combined is peanuts, considering.

I thought the M4 needed an extension to get the extra (6th) 2 3/4 shell in the tube?

Yeah I thought the aftermarket extensions were required to fit 5.9 3” and out of the box the M4, in Canada anyway, would only fit 5 2 3/4”.

Interesting. Thanks.
Post a pic of your tube. The M4 as they come have that false extension. With this on how the heck are you fitting 6x 2.75” shells? I think maybe you forgot to put the mag spring in!
With my Carrier Comp full-length tube, plugged to hold one less round, I can fit 6 and a bit 2.75” rounds (5.75x 3” rounds to be exact). How you’re you’re achieving this in the factory configuration is absolutely baffling.
