Clean up the threads with a file and then send it. The problem isn't the missing metal, it would be the threads catching on burrs and giving an incorrect torque reading.

I took my MAC 1014 to the range for the first time yesterday for a break-in. I started off with 15 rounds of Remington slugs at 1560 FPS. Next, I fired 94 Winchester 2 3/4“ 1oz. #8 Dove & Clay rounds at 1350 FPS (I kept 6 back for home defense until I can get some buck). That’s 109 break-in rounds without a hiccup. Then I ran to Wally world and bought 50 more rounds - 25 Winchester #7 1 oz. steel shot at 1290 FPS and 25 Winchester #7 ½ 1oz. shot at 1250 FPS. The MAC gobbled them up too - first 10 rounds of the 1290 FPS stuff and then 10 rounds of the 1250 FPS stuff, followed by the rest of the 1290 shells and then the remainder of the 1250. So 159 flawless rounds total thru the Mac within a couple of hours with no cleaning or oiling. I am mightily impressed with this little Turkish copy of the Benelli M4! It does seem to get awfully dirty after firing though…

I simply couldn’t trust my life to a Turkish copy of much of anything. So many potential failure points in the metallurgy , the machining, and the parts. A lot of guns work, quality simply dictates for how long. Might be a fun range toy though.

@cameljoe212 i respect your stance on that however any firearm can fail weather it's American made or Turkish made ect they all have failure points
@cameljoe21229 күн бұрын
You speak truth, but in my experience the QC on guns from Turkey simply isn’t there and doesn’t lend itself to long term reliability. We pay 2K for a Benelli knowing the processes that manufactured it are fine tooth comb reviewed daily and randomly tested for both composition and spec. The 1014 simply isn’t held to this standard. I looked at a MAC5K the other day, was interested until I calipered the bolt gap. Not so much now. You pay HK for a reason. Same with Benelli.
@BendingBallistics29 күн бұрын
@cameljoe212 i mean i have seen $2k price range firearms fail, i have also seen $400 price range firearms run like a champ, failures happen. But the mac1014 isn't a shtf style shotgun for me it's more of a range gun because of the reliability issues I have experienced with it, however where the mac1014 comes in nice is you can buy the shell as the mac1014 and put all benelli parts in it including bolt and have a benelli at the fraction of the cost. However it's still not a benelli I'll say that
@cameljoe21229 күн бұрын
Right there with you on the MAC5 as well, would like to find one with a good bolt gap and replace the extractor, ejector, and trigger pack with hk parts. Still 1200 less than the sp5.

If a gun is truly reliable it should run any/everything, im well past break in round counts on this shot gun, so I'm well aware what the manual says about break in, at over 1000 rounds thru this shotgun gun it should run any and all ammo if it's truly just as good it should run all ammo

Winchester ammo sucks. It was good in the 80s, but I've went to federal, cci, Remington vipers, yellow jackets, and even the golden bullets. Winchester will only be shot through a bolt action, pump or single shot (I don't own a lever action). I've heard nothing good about Winchester white box anything. Their 22lr sucks, and their shotgun white box sucks.

@BendingBallistics try white box bulk in a semi auto rifle. I have four it won't cycle in. It even has different reports from unequal powder charges. I've heard people talking about white box shotgun ammo not cycling in semi autos or even ejecting from pump actions. I personally don't have trouble with the shotgun ammo, but the bulk white box is worse than the golden bullets used to be. I haven't shot the super x in years. It may be good.

It's NOT a failure , or unfortunate if the gun won't run ammo OUTSIDE of the manufacturer's recommendations , or if the operator FAILED to perform the RECOMMENDED break in regimen . It IS a FAILURE to READ and HEED ( FOLLOW ) the INSTRUCTIONS provided with the gun . Nothing more , nothing less . Try LOW VELOCITY loads AFTER a PROPER BREAK-IN , and report back . I'll bet , the results will be better and more meaningful . Thanks for the video .
