  1. In support of Benelli CS and the people on this forum, i had an issue with my SBE-II a few years ago, i explained to CS that i had a pheasant hunt in South Dakota planned 14 days from the time on the phone, she said get it here and we will get it back to you. I thought there would be no way i would have my gun back and i'd be using the trusty 870. Low and behold, the gun shows up DAYS prior to my departure. I really appreciated the service and the kindness of the people i spoke to. I won't buy another auto shotgun thats not a Benelli.

  2. Does anyone know if a magazine extension off of an SBE1 will fit/work with an SBEII. I would imagine that it would but dont want to make the mistake of buying one and having it not fit.

  3. No Wd-40, anyone who does that shouldnt have a Benelli. I am currently using break free oil and the formula three oil that came with a cleaning kit. I have shot alot of shells with this gun.. at least 200 rounds, 25 being 3.5". i understand about the gun being pointed weird and stuff but these were normal shots, straight out in front. i dont think i am doing anything wrong but i am just frustrated right now. I love that gun...it is just dort of disappointing the way it is going right now.

  4. Has anyone ever had a Benelli replaced due to defect/problems through warranty?

     

    I just bought my SBE II on 9/11/05 and am having some problems. It was broken in with three boxes of 3" shells. It does not cycle correctly. It will fire the first shot and then "stovepipe" the next live shell. It ejects the spent shell, gets a new one from the mag and halway ejects that one leaving it jammed in the action perpendicular to the gun. OR it will not load all the way into the action and become jammed in the action parallel with the gun in the ejection hole. AND the middle sight bead fell out, it just felll out.

     

    The main reason i am frustrated is that i paid alot for this gun and i spent the last week in canada hunting snows, canada geese and ducks and had this happen multiple times leaving me with a single shot. It was very frustrating. Has anyone else experienced these types of problems???

     

    also, i clean the gun every time i use it. Take out bolt, action, and disassemble the bolt if it looks really bad.

     

    I need help....

  5. I am trying to fine tune the fit of my shotgun, if i need to put my cheek down further when i am shooting, i need to lower the drop correct? is this easy to do? i am confused when looking at the manual how to do it...

  6. From what i've read in my owners book ( i just got a new SBE II myself) it says that the capacity for the SBE II is four shells, 3 in the mag and one in the tube.. page 11 of the use-maintainence book.

  7. I am going into Canada for a goose hunt this year, first time with my new Benelli. Would it be a good idea to get some 3 1/2" shells for hunting snow geese? i think that for the canada's i will want it for sure, im just trying to figure out how much to buy.

    THanks for the help!!
