Anyone using the Speed Bead set-up on their Benelli M2? Thinking about ordering one for my 20ga M2. What’s the verdict?

I've had one on a M2 Field for several years. No problems. Mine is a 12 ga.

You will have to modify mount. The mount will not fit the 20 gauge M2. I have one on my franchi affinity 20 gauge and I really like it. I also had to modify mine to make it fit but I used the M2 mount. There was another thread a month or so ago and someone mentioned there have been some bad reviews on it holding zero. I have had no issues with mine though

I don't remember all the details of the previous thread, but I have seen threads on other sites and they seem to have a common theme. The theme is that the Speed Bead seemed to do fine on the M2's but had problems holding zero on other brands of firearms. Without searching for those threads, the only brand I can remember specifically mentioned as problematic was Browning.

Get a mount from William at Sumtoy Chokes and drill/tap your gun and be done with it. That’s what I did with my Affinity.

The Burris website says they are making a Speed Bead mount specifically for the M2 20 gauge now, but no one seems to have it in stock. From what I have read, the Benelli M2 mount will not fit the Franch Affinity.

hunterturf, that is what I was concerned about. it looks like it would be awful easy for it to get into your hand on the pistol grip part of the stock. My gun doesn't kick all that hard, but in the rush to mash old longbeard's head with some TSS there is no telling where I might be holding onto that stock.

Do you know if there is a benefit of the sumtoy mount over the marlin 336 base?

I do believe Williams mount is supposed to be tapered to match the receiver of your particular gun. The 336 is tapered for the marlin 336 receiver

Brownell’s is now showing the Speed Bead mount for the Benelli M2 in 20 gauge in stock. Just ordered one for my 20 gauge M2.
