(GunReports.com) — Benelli has eight new variation of its popular shotguns at SHOT Show 2012 in Las Vegas this week:
- Benelli M4 H2O: Benelli’s M4 Tactical is so rugged and reliable that the U.S. Marines have depended on it for all their shotgun needs since 1999. The latest version is called the M4 H2O, which includes for the first time ever, a factory-installed telescoping pistol-grip stock, a full-length magazine tube (7+1 capacity) and NP3 coating—a seriously rugged weather-proofing that will withstand all the elements. The M4 H2O comes standard with a Picatinny rail, pistol-grip stock and a fully adjustable ghost-ring aperture rear sight and windage-adjustable front sight.
- Benelli Performance Shop M2 3-Gun: Multi-gun competition demands the highest standards of reliable operation in guns performing under the pressures of action shooting and the stresses of a timed event. Benelli’s M2 has passed the test of time, establishing a sterling reputation as the shotgun of choice for serious 3-gun competitors. Now, Benelli takes the M2 to the next level with the issue of the Performance Shop M2 3-Gun Edition, the ultimate tactical competition gun that’s simply perfect.
- Benelli Ultra-Light 28 Gauge: Meet the newest member of the Benelli Ultra-Light family—the Ultra-Light 28 Gauge. Weighing in at just 5 pounds, this sleek, beautiful shotgun happens to be the lightest auto-loading shotgun in the world. Benelli’s precision engineering and innovative technology has created an extraordinary shotgun that can provide performance and reliability all day long without weighing down the shooter.
- Benelli Now Offers NFA Guns in Tactical Configurations: Benelli USA now offers National Firearms Act (NFA) shotguns, which can be purchased by anyone with the proper tax stamps through a Benelli USA authorized Class III dealer. The National Firearms Act of 1968 established controls for short-barreled shotguns, which created confusion about their ownership. Tactical gun use has grown recently for short-barreled shotguns, and for those willing to obtain the proper paperwork, NFA Benelli shotguns are now available.
- Benelli’s New Super Black Eagle II Performance Shop Waterfowl Edition: Benelli is pleased to announce the release of a special new shotgun, custom-tuned for the hard-core waterfowler—the Benelli Super Black Eagle II (SBE II) Performance Shop Waterfowl Edition. The SBE II is already recognized as the greatest semi-automatic shotgun ever made. Now, with Benelli’s Performance Shop enhancements the ultimate waterfowl gun just got better.
- Benelli M2 20-Gauge Max-4™: Benelli’s M2 20-gauge model is now available in the Realtree® Max-4™ pattern. Due to the popular demand in the 20-gauge cartridge and improved technology, this is the perfect waterfowl setup for any shooter to enjoy.
- Benelli American Series: Benelli USA offers the SBE II and M2 in a Limited Edition American Series. These two economical models feature Benelli’s Crio® System, which cryogenically treats the barrel and choke tubes, establishing a uniform molecular structure in the metal that promotes denser, more uniform patterns.
- Benelli SBE II Limited Edition Mossy Oak Duck Blind: The Super Black Eagle II, the tried and true flagship of the Benelli shotgun line, is now available in a Limited Edition Mossy Oak® Duck Blind™ pattern. Powered by Benelli’s ultra-reliable Inertia Driven® System, the SBE II cycles everything from field loads to the powerful 3½ -inch Magnums, without any adjustment.
