I realize it’s aluminum, but Benelli supposedly drills and taps them before they harden them. My buddy tried to get one done about 4 years ago. The smith called him back and told him to come pick it up, he had already broken 5 bits and wasn’t wasting one more on it. I’m guessing that was mostly the fault of the smith, but there must be something to it. Just looking for the best way to go about it.


Oh, and believe it or not, deer bite. Fairly hard.
