The Carlson's Choke Tubes 04522 Magazine Extension increases capacity by three rounds on compatible Benelli 12-gauge shotguns. This blued steel extension transforms standard magazine capacity into extended firepower for competitive shooting and waterfowl hunting applications.
What Makes This Different
Unlike universal extensions that require extensive modification, the 04522 installs directly onto Benelli M1, M2, Super Black Eagle I, II, and III models without gunsmithing. The precision-machined steel construction maintains the shotgun's balance point while adding three additional rounds. Factory threading ensures proper headspace and reliable cycling with all standard 12-gauge loads.
Key Features
- Adds 3 rounds capacity to compatible Benelli 12-gauge shotguns
- Blued steel construction resists corrosion and wear
- Direct-fit installation on M1, M2, Super Black Eagle I/II/III models
- Factory-matched threading maintains proper headspace
- Spring and follower included for complete installation

Field testing demonstrates reliable cycling with 2¾-inch, 3-inch, and 3½-inch shells across various shot weights. The extension proves particularly valuable in competitive 3-gun matches where reload speed determines stage times. Waterfowl hunters benefit from increased capacity during high-volume shooting situations. The blued finish matches factory Benelli components while providing weather resistance in harsh field conditions.
