I have to say, I am impressed. I fired approximately 500 rounds over three days, on a brand new gun, never cleaned, and it never malfunctioned. It even began to rain on us the third day. It worked with #9 skeet loads, 00 Buck, and slugs.

This shotgun is certainly different from the semi-autos I'm used to, but I think it is a better design. The way a round can be in three different places (chamber, tube, or on shell ramp) is interesting. It also allows you to load up to 9 rounds. The only negative is the length of pull. With the stock extended it is too long and collapsed it is too short. I am lucky I am a tall guy. I was barely able to get the stock into the pocket of my shoulder.

Anyone else like the newest Benelli? (we call it the M1014)

What is this, you are IMPRESSED with an old fashioned anachronistic useless piece of history, an outdated concept like a fighting shotgun? What is WRONG with you? Here we are in the opening years of the 21st Century, all the small arms developments and improvements of the past 60 years are yours for the asking, and yet you fly in the face of all this modern development- you have the unmitigated temerity to actually LIKE such an outmoded weapon as a SHOTGUN?



















Good for you... me too! 8^)
