Slug barrel ID.

[tlivingd]

I was given a barrel that I was told was from a Benelli but no idea of the model. The shotgun was purchased new around 1999-2000 along with this barrel. The shotgun is no longer in our possession.

Can anyone help me ID this further?

 

The markings on the barrel are

E.R. Shaw Custom Slug Barrel 12ga 2 3/4" & 3' Chamber

(yes it shows 3' on the barrel I know it should be 3")

 

Thanks for any help,

Nate

I'd have pictures but my post count isn't high enough.

 

however if you go to gunandgame and search for Benelli it's the second link

oh actually I learned it's a Super Black Eagle. although I don't know if it's the SBE II version. Does anyone know when SBE II came out?

It has no sights. I think it's been drilled for a scope mount. however the two holes are only about 1" apart. though I don't have a picture showing those yet.

 

it's unfired and never even been mounted on the gun.

I don't know if it needs a different fore-stock

Shaw made slug barrels for Benelli. They also made several versions; sights/no sights, 1:28", 1:36".

 

My SBE has a no sight, 1:28", very accurate.

 

Best of luck with yours.

E R Shaw is still in business, do a internet search. That barrel should be a SBE(will fit a SBE II) barrel. They made slug barrels for Benelli for many years. It has heavier walls than newer barrels and needs a special forearm, or sanding for stock forearm. It is a 2 3/4 or 3" only barrel. A valuable and good barrel. Do you want to sell? I know people looking for them as around here there are few rifle areas.
