Left Handed Guns

[Ty17]

Hi everyone, been a long time reader and lurker but just made an account. Have 6 Benellis now and have had more in the past. I’m a lefty and it seems that Benelli is moving away from making left handed shotguns. Luckily I already have some but it’s a little disappointing to see them leaving that market. They only make the SBE3 in a 28” barrel in black and Realtree now. Do you think they are just revamping the lineup or are they moving to all righty guns?

The only change in the left handed lineup is the missing M2 and Montefeltro which will be coming in the future, this is because of the restyling and updates to both models.  In the future you MAY see a Ethos in left handed version as well.  In general the left handed shotgun market is a growing segement.  Franchi has a left handed Affinity 3 in 12 gauge and 20 gauge.  The edition of camo version set to release this year was pushed back.

That makes sense. They also removes the lefty 828U so I was worried they were just nixing them all. I hope they add a lefty 28ga SBE 3.

Left handed 828U's are still available as well.  There is new Old Style M2's & Montefeltro's still available as well.  The 26" Left Handed Black SBE 3 has been discontinued.

I am new to the sport; and tried a few shotguns, but loved. I mean loved. The benelli. 
 

I want a left handed gun - the ethos. It looks great and is smooth. How do I go about finding either a new or used one?

I don’t think they’ve ever made a lefty Ethos. You’ll have to find a used M2, SBE2, or Montefeltro or get a new SBE3.
