I have a benelli, what shotgun do you have?

[cronus5116]

I have a benelli M4 and a M3 I have shot my M3 quite a bit and I really like it only draw back is that the inertia recoil system does not allow me to put my sling that holds 15 shells on it and use it in semi-auto I have to either switch to pump mode or take the sling off (which is what I have done). Apart from that fact I really like it and plus I think I like it better without the sling. Ive had my M4 for two years I think but I have yet to shoot it :o, the only thing either shotgun has in extras is a mag. extender. I want a mossberg 590 also, thats a purchase I'll make in the future for sure. So what kind of shotgun do you have, and if you have more than one brand, which one is your favorite?

[Ricardus]

I have a Benelli Nova tactical with the rifle sights. But my favorite is the Russian Saiga 12.

[Scattergun]

I have been thinking about a Benelli M1 but haven't completely made up my mind yet.

I do have a few others

1-Ithaca MAG10
3-Ithaca M37 1 is an AOW
4-Remington 870 2 are SBS
1-Remington 1100
1-Winchester 1300
1 Winchester 101 Diamond Grade
1-SAIGA-12 Tromix SBS conversion

I perfer the feel of the old M37

[mattjmcd]

I have an M2.

[Nimslow]

Currently I have a Benelli M4, and a Mossberg 590A1. Both run flawlessly. I used to have an HK/Benelli M1S90. One of these days, I'm going to pick up a Scattergun 870, and possibly a SBS Siaga 12.

[usaffarmer]

870 Vang Comp Mag.

[Sabre675]

Benelli M1 S90 14" Entry & 870 VSBSG! ;)

[akviper]

I use two. A Benelli Super Nova with ghost ring, pistol grip, extended mag tube. I'm not thrilled with it but it was cheap. It's my throw away don't cry if it gets stolen out of my car gun.

My primary and old duty gun is a Scatterguns 11-87 K-9. It has a lot of rounds through it and still shoots up a storm. The Remington is the gun I would carry for serious social use or for training.

Like all good Americans, I own a Remington 870. I wasn't aware there were other shotguns on the market. :cool:

Too funny and too true.

[Stan_TheGunNut]

I have:
Benelli M4
Benelli M2 Field
Remington 870
Mossberg 500
Mossberg 590
Stoeger Coach Gun (for cowboy shoots)
Sears & Roebuck (Stevens?) double barrel.

And I think that's it. It's difficult to pick a favorite, each has a purpose. For a HD shotty, probably the Mossberg 500. It's proven reliable and it's one of the less expensive ones.

[USMGoldenEagle]

I have a Benelli Nova....cheap but good for the price.

[cronus5116]

I've heard of the benelli M4 giving shooters problems during three gun matches, do you guys know anthing about that?

Did you compare it to a regular barrel? I've wondered if the vang comp barrels would provide any improvement over my current 18 inch barrel.

[Surf]

As far as just Benelli, I have an M1 super, 14", and an M3.

[MTR7]

My first firearm was my M1super 90, runs like a bat out of hell. I liked it so much I bought another so I had a pair. Also have:
97 trench, Mdl 12 trench, 590 Vang comped, a M121, H & K 512 , Browing A-5 Police gun, Rhodesian marked and an 870.

I guess it is good that I do not collect shotguns.

Matt

[Bigun]

Beretta 1201FP, Benelli Nova Tac, Rem 1100. Of the 3 the Remington is probably my favorite although I shot a perfect round of skeet with the Beretta 1201FP you shoulda seen the looks from the O/U crew.:D I also own 1 Beretta 390, 1 Winchester Supreme O/U. And have owned 11/87's, 870's, Beretta 686, Beretta Pintail, Browning Gold and A5's and a Citori trap, Ithica 37 and Century series trap, Mossberg 500 and 9200. I'm kind of a shotgun guy.

[N4LtRecce]

S-12 awaiting a conversion.

[Copis]

Did you compare it to a regular barrel? I've wondered if the vang comp barrels would provide any improvement over my current 18 inch barrel.

no need to wonder.......there is a huge improvement...backboring makes for tighter buckshot groups and the porting makes for less muzzle rise....

well worth it

[CobraBG]

A Benelli M1 Super 90 and a Winchester Defender with a Pachmayr pistol grip and forend (very compact).

I would like to get a Benelli M4 but can't afford it.

[K.L. Davis]

...my sling that holds 15 shells
Bit of advice... those bandoleer slings are a detriment to more than what you have discovered; the weight of a dozen plus shotgun shells swinging back and forth under a shouldered gun, make holding the gun steady on target next to impossible.

Not sure what the odds are of you ever having to carefully exclude good guys from your field of fire... but that sling don't make it any easier, trust me :(

[ls6man]

I have a Benelli M4, a 590, and a bunch of 870's...I have to say I've never shot the M4, mainly because I always seem to grab something else..

They are really nice shotguns...I'm not sure if they are worth all the money compared to a basic 870 though...

In the event of a SHTF situation I'd have to think the 870 or 590 would be a better choice in the long run..they both are extremely durable and parts are always around..

The M4 was sort of a "cool" purchase and might get sold..lol

[hags]

Don't have any pictures handy but I have a Remington 870P #4447, an 870E w/factory ext., an FN SLP Mk1, a Winchester 1400 Mk II, 2 H&R Excell S/As, and a Marlin .410 single shot.

Nice,

I have an M4 also and I haven't been able to find a side saddle anywhere. Could you point me in the right direction??

[30 cal slut]

i've had a benelli m3 for what ... 15 some odd years now ...

shot it ONCE. :rolleyes:

i've never been a scattergun guy ... although the first gun i ever bought was a remington 870 12 ga.

trap isn't as much fun for me as it was ... and i ain't a wingshooter.

i guess i'm queer for single projectiles.

Benelli M3 Super 90....I love this shotgun. First shot it at Quantico 13 years ago...found it for $600 5 years ago....

Only downside: It came with rifle-type sights....no ghost ring. Can I change these out??

[cmoore]

I have a Benelli M1S90 and use a Rem. 870 (Scattergun Tech) with a 14" barrel @ work.

I'd like a Rem. pump-action for the house too, just haven't gotten around to it yet...

[Crow Hunter]

Benelli

I have a tactical model and a M1 12ga, M1 20 ga.

I have not ever had an issue with any of them that wasn't ammo related. A few dud primers in some skeet loads.

Having that integral magazine cut off is extremely useful in a run-n-gun crow hunting situation. When it is time to displace to another stand, just pull back the handle and eject the shell. Move to a new hide, put it back in. Don't have to do any weird manipulations to keep from having a live shell in place while walking.

Just need to make sure you full seat the bolt so you don't get the "Benelli click".:haha:

[KTR03]

Saiga 12. with a bunch of 8 round russian mags, some 10 round AGPs and 2 drums. THey are sweet shooting guns and overcome the challenge of keeping a shotgun loaded.

[Shane1]

Surf,

I bought the M4 just to help out a bud that needed the cash. It's too long for practical purposes, for me as a work gun anyway. The M3 was bought on a whim. Again, doesnt fit a work purpose for me so no reason to keep it. I have a 12" 870 that does everything I need it to at 1/2 thier size. :)

[Blastard]

I currently have a Benelli M1S90 Field,

I'd like to add a Benelli M2 Tactical and Rem 870 Police at some point.

Mossberg 500 for the Truck
Remington 1187P for the house and the brand new M4 sits in the safe with 50 shells through it. Impulse buy. Gotta work on that.

I like the Mossberg over the Remington simply by virtue of the safety location. Easier to manipulate.

They all get the job done just fine, but I prefer the Mossbergs.
