Benelli M4 with Aimpoint Micro T1

[Gunner1273]

Good Morning,

Just ordered a Benelli M4 and looking to put a Aimpoint Micro T1 on it. ANyone have any experience with this sight and this shotgun? Any particular mounts you recommend for this shotgun. Let me know. Thanks in advance.

I've had numerous Aimpoints over the years, including a Micro H1, and it's definitely a solid site. On a shotgun, I wouldn't be worried about getting a 2 MOA vs. 4 MOA dot, just whichever is available. The shotgun comes with a top picatinny rail, so the mount the Aimpoint comes with should work fine, no need to get an after market one.

If you have the STOCK rail, do NOT GET the Larue low mount... it gets destroyed on the Benelli rail.

I'm running a Mesa Tactical rail/saddle combo, and use a Larue low mount and H1 with no issues. Before that, I had an H1 in a low ADM mount... I actually prefer the ADM mounts.

To be honest, since I bought a FO front sight, I usually don't even bother with the Aimpoint... the only benefit is that you can actually USE the 'middle' position on the stock with the aimpoint... it's almost impossible to use the irons unl;ess fully extended.
