A Beretta 20 ga. gas gun should shoot anything and everything. I have never done anything than light cleaning on my 391 Sporting Gold and its jammed once or twice in 8 years. Tear it down and clean it real well.
-
I have these on mine. I don't think they are worth it. And before I put them on, my gun was pretty much right on at about 30 yards with slugs. Now, I have it cranked all the way (up I think) and its still too high or too low. I'm not sure which it is, but I mean I can't get it sighted in more than about 3" one way at 30 yards.
And I have tried them in the dark when its pitch black and I still can't see them very well. Even more so when I turn on my flashlight.

Not really. Only shots like straight overhead or weird angles. If I raise up from my layout and shoot, usually my body recoils pretty well and it doesn't bother me.
-
would fp-10 be one that is safe for camo guns??
To put on the finish? If so, no. Just LIGHT soap and water to clean off dirt, blood, etc.

The last two years I put my SBEII through an experiment. I only cleaned it when it wouldn't cycle anymore. I hunted Canada in fall of '07. I cleaned it VERY well before that trip, then after that not again until 12/08 when my bolt would close as if it was in slow motion. Gun still fired, just not very fast. It made it over a year with lots of shooting before a cleaning. In the 2 I run FP-10 oil and grease.

The more I think about it, the more I like the idea of a bottom ejector. It would be nice if all the shells ejected at my feet and not a mile away.

Well I would say that there are two words there that make the price $350..."Benelli" and "factory".
As for the aftermarket tubes, I paid $50 for a +2 with spring for my M2 and I was sure I was getting ripped off then haha but for $350 no way... The tube has worked really well for me and there have been no problems so if you are looking at getting one I wouldn't be worried about it. I got mine here:
How is the quality of these? I was looking at getting a +4 for my SBE for extended goose season. My brother has a SureCycle but if $110. I'd gladly save $60 and take 2 shots less.
Thanks

I searched on there last time home for the tacstar one and the clamp. I'm impressed. It was better made that I thought. I sprayed the inside of the clamp with the plasti-dip stuff and put rubber tape on the metal where it met and screwed it down tight.
-
I bought some night sights for my SN and they fit on fine, but I never could get them sighted in. They were always low and I have it maxed out on the adjustment. I don't know if Benelli makes something different for the SN.
-
I picked up a pair of Meprolight NS last fall for my SN and I never could get them zero'ed right. Its been a while since I shot it, but its either too high or too low and the sights are maxed out to correct it. Any suggestions?
I'm thinking of just selling them if I can't get it a little more zero'ed.
Thanks

I never did find them, or I don't think I did. I called a local Benelli dealer and they ordered them, but when I picked them up, they were Mepro lights, but they did have the Benelli 60795 number on them so who knows. Over all I'm not impressed. They aren't very bright.
If I have my flashlight on in the dark, you can't even see the lights.
-
Anyone of you guys found a good place to order Benelli accessories? I am having trouble finding some stuff and I was just gonna have a dealer order the parts.
Thanks

mods please delete

You guys must have better eye sight than me or the NS are REALLY bright. I have a hard time seeing the normal sights in daylight.
So I'm not sure which sites to get, the Meprolight or the Benelli ones.
-
I'm at the autoshop right now having a coil put on my F-150 and when I get home I'll get a picture of my SN with a TacStar light. I haven't shot it yet, but it feels pretty solid. I put on some liquid electric tape on the mount so it will hopefully not slip as easy.
-
Hmm... I never got an e-mail that this thread had responses. Thanks for the posts.
-
That looks pretty good. Better than I would have guessed actually.
-
Anyone bought these for their SN? If so, what do you think of them? How much did you pay?
Thanks

So I've been looking at a sling mount for my SuperNova kinda like these.

but no-one makes them for the SN. I don't like using the loop in the stock and I was thinking about making something to put around the stock right behind the pistol grip to attach a sling too. Anyone ever make anything like this or see anything?

Drundel,
Thanks for the 512 suggestion. I understand your position that the 553 is overkill is some regards. I like the 553 as the viewscreen is bigger, it is NVG compatible and it can operate in lower temps than the 512 (and here in Alaska, that does matter -- especially when I am up on the North Slope in Winter). I am also considering the upgraded 550 AA (552.A65/1) as well.

Mark,
I work on the Slope and am here now. Who is carrying around M4's? I get nervous when I see all the old security guys with their S&W 686, if one of those guys had an M4 slung over his shoulder, I don't think I would ever goto PBOC, MCC, BOC, etc. anymore.
OT: When is it gonna warm up? It was snowing last night.

The 553 is kinda overkill for a shotgun. You might want to look at a 512.

if you want it camo. If just black, try Black-T. There was an A5 done on shotgunworld.com that looked sharp!
