    Do I want a Benelli M2 or an M4?

    A previous post on this forum made me realize there is a hole in my collection for a semi auto shotgun and as Benelli seems to be best-in-breed I thought I would get myself one. I just don’t know which model.

    I’m not at all concerned with the price difference between the two and in this case I don’t think it matters so much as it seems one isn’t necessarily better than the other, just different.

    It may one day be used as a home defense gun so there is that.

    I have never shot a semi auto shotgun so can’t figure out if inertia vs gas would be “better” for me. The M2 is slightly lighter, which is nice, but the M2 reportedly has lower recoil.

    It also seems that the M4 is better for adding a red dot or similar. I’m currently running ghost rings on my pump gun and find them more than adequate but who knows as my eyes get older.

    Both seem to be on the same level of reliability so I think that may be a moot point.

    In either case I’m not a fan of pistol grips so just a regular non-telescoping stock would be my ideal choice.

    I’m pretty lost in the woods here and would apppreciate some advice…
