NEW TNA 3-GUN VR-66 12ga SHOTGUN is here!

Someone should invent an extension that has a recessed cavity in it for the mag tube spring and follower but blocks shells at exactly 5.9

How close are you to getting 6 rounds in? It may only need a small bit of tweaking to get there.

It was on sale yesterday when I looked at TNA's site.

Not very close at all. I'd guess maybe less then 1/2 of a 2.75 round will fit.
 
Very much enjoy mine.

Had an issue that it originally shipped with, the TNA team without hesitation sent me replacement parts.

Couple hundred rounds down now - flawless.

Solid gun for the price
 
Well, I ordered mine this morning. I hope to be able to add to the pile of excellent user reports when it lands. What did people use to break it in with?

I have seen comments about the set screw holding the bolt handle spring in place backing out. Is there anything else to take care of before I start shooting? Is there a good disassembly video/instruction set anywhere or will one for the M2 work OK?

Very close to the M2, so a similar disassembly video will work. Mine needed very little to break in, but what always works best is the cheapest 3" hunting shells you can find. Won't likely need many.

No need for excessive break in. Mine wouldn’t cycle low recoil slugs but cycles my bird shot just fine. The same score slugs cycle in my turknelli, 1301, and A300 but they’re sluggish (pun intended)

Any M2 disassembly video will work just fine.

I'd like to get the plus 3.

Was it from TNA?

EDIT: I see they have the +3 in stock. ORDERED.

Thanks for the heads up, ordered one also 👍
Like you, I can only get 5+1+1 in my plus 2 extension
That being said, this shotgun continues to impress me, I’ve run it in a bunch of competitions now and it has been flawless, and quite accurate with slugs

My 2 cents, I've had great luck breaking in semi-automatics with the cheapest 3" shells I can find. Are usually #2's or BB's, but are heavy high brass 3"ers around 1500fps. Run a box through it as fast as your shoulder can take it, be mindful of the barrels temp. It breaks in most guns in 1 box, and are good to go on 1oz skeet ammo afterwards. Save your buckshot for meaningful shooting. Not telling others what to do, but that has worked for me on new Benelli's (inertia & gas), Beretta's and Turkish clones. My inertia gun shoots 7/8 oz reliably, haven't tried that ammo with the gassers.

I have a 1301 comp. I just started shooting. I had no idea about breaking in. These threads are great for people like me, who are newbs. I'm looking at the VR-66 and tbh; this thread has sold me.
 
If you're in the Stoon and wanna shoot...I'd be down. I don't know people, so just reaching out. Thanks.

I bought one a while ago when they first came out. It's almost identical to my m2. Mine did not accept aftermarket charging handles, but the one it comes with is very nice. The receiver did not have the benelli footprint for the pic rail so no integrated mounts for optics, but for the price, is a very nice gun. I have had no issues with firing and it actually has the upgraded bolt to eliminate the benelli click, which I wish my m2 had tbh.

Which upgrade is that? TBH I've owned a lot of Benelli's and never had the 'Benelli Click' happen to me, so not familiar.

I'm not sure what is called, benelli upgraded the 2023 new m2 s with small spring that prevents the bolt from getting out of battery once closed.
If you bump an m2 or the bolt handle catches and moves a bit the bolt head rotates slightly amd when you pull the trigger it's a click instead of a boom.
