loughrj Posted February 13, 2004 Posted February 13, 2004 I am going to buy a SBE or SBE2 shotgun primarily for hunting turkey. I saw the photos of the SBE2 on Benelli's website and have handled the current SBE. Which SBE do you recommend? Is there a big difference in price? Quote
birddog Posted February 13, 2004 Posted February 13, 2004 I have yet to see any numbers on the new SBE-II. Would be interesting to see what price difference there is if any. I don't think the guns have been realeased yet publicly.. so you may have to wait a while until they reach retailers to get any sort of feed back. Quote
Benelli_11 Posted February 14, 2004 Posted February 14, 2004 I agree with you birddog. I'm going to wait and see how much they are and find out there reputation. Spencer Quote
kingalw Posted February 14, 2004 Posted February 14, 2004 Actually I've called a few of the local dealers and they have the pricing sheets for the '04. I've only priced the left handed models though so I'm not much help on the righty versions Quote
Mossberg Man Posted February 17, 2004 Posted February 17, 2004 I saw the cost somewhere on the internet . It was about $100 more than the regular sbe. Quote
Mossberg Man Posted February 17, 2004 Posted February 17, 2004 I was wrong http://www.calssportingarmory.com/BenelliSBEs.htm Quote
Benelli Southpaw Posted February 18, 2004 Posted February 18, 2004 left and right are same price as far as i have seen. but that still doesn't help you any. Quote

From what I've read, I would wait for the SBE II if money is not an issue. Sounds to me like they've taken an already great gun and improved the pattern and addressed the recoil. You will feel the recoil with a 3 1/2 turkey load when patterning the SBE. I expect the price of the SBE II to be between $100-$200 more than the SBE. Quote
Nick_Navarro1414 Posted February 26, 2004 Posted February 26, 2004 Im gonna be waiting for the SBE II, doesnt come out until december though. it will be about $1300. for now im going to buy a mossberg 935. im sure that can hold me over until dec. Quote
Drundel Posted March 7, 2004 Posted March 7, 2004 I'd wait. I have an SBE that I tricked out this fall and am gonna get a SBE2 just cause I can. Based on the price from MM, the place I got my SBE should have the 2 for about $1200. I want to see some more picts of the flyway SBE2s. I bet they would make good investments. Quote
Wingman Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 I thought about checking out the flyways edition myself until I saw that they are only making 175 of each edition. I can't imagine the price tag on them! Nice looking gun though. [ 03-09-2004, 11:19 AM: Message edited by: Wingman ] Quote
strubedog Posted March 11, 2004 Posted March 11, 2004 SBE2 = $1200 at a dealer that sells a fair amount of them Quote
DUKFVR Posted March 12, 2004 Posted March 12, 2004 Etchens guns has the Flyway edition listed for 2000.00 when available. Quote
