wallhanger Posted August 13, 2004 Share Posted August 13, 2004 I am looking at buying the M2 before the upcoming hunting season, and a friend of mine was telling me that the benelli magazine will hold (3) 2 3/4 shells with one in the chamber. This is with the plug in and no tube extension. Is this correct? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benddg Posted August 14, 2004 Share Posted August 14, 2004 with the plug it will hold 2 in the chamber and 1 in the chamber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

threeshot Posted August 14, 2004 Share Posted August 14, 2004 benddg, With the plug in, how many 3" shells can you load in the M2 magazine? My SBEII with the plug in the standard magazine tube will hold in the magazine tube (I think; it's be awhile since I put the plug back into the gun): (2) 3 1/2" (2) 3" (2) 2 3/4" Without the plug in the standard magazine tube, I can load into the SBEII magazine tube: (2) 3 1/2" (2) 3" (3) 2 3/4" Edited to correct my original posting. I had the wrong numbers when the plug is in the standard magazine for the 3 1/2" & 3" shells.

wallhanger Posted August 16, 2004 Author Share Posted August 16, 2004 Thanks for the quick reply! Well I went ahead and bouught the M2 with a 26 in. barrel on friday, and shot skeet with it saturday. I loved the gun. Dropped one bird in the first box and was straight in the second. And for me that is great. I did notice that my saftey was stiff, but not sure if this will loosen up with use. I have seen some talk of this by others. Does anyone know if the gun that I just bought came with the corrected saftey, or will I have to send it back to be fixed?
