    Does the M2 need to be drilled/tapped for that picatinny mount?

    Varies by model. The 18 inch Tactical in Steve's picture is drilled, and some of my field length models are not. M4 is drilled as is Tactical length SuperNova.
    Likes pretty much everything in every caliber.

    Hrm. So if I was dead set on running a red dot on this I may as well spring for the m4?

    Although a softer recoiling gas gun would be a bonus, I really like the simplicity of a Benelli. My M1 just works.

    I really wanted an M2 with a clean receiver to run a red dot on. Bought one and got the Mesa Tactical mount that combines a side saddle and rail. The M2 arrived and had no holes drilled. Turns out it is only with the Tactical Model. I did not want the tall irons. I sold the gun and have been debating the M4. My M4 money keeps getting spent on high end revolvers. If I was still a working cop, the M4 would be a priority. For a home defense gun, what I have is fine.
