schnabel Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 Got the gun two months ago and found the barrel band was busted. That 28" bbl is still not back, 8 weeks. Patience..... http://www.shotgunworld.com/bbs/viewtopic.php?t=91639 Anyway, reason I wanted it in the first place was to make the gun you see here. I hunt Grouse in some groves where a 28" gun just makes you mad. Even a 24" seems to get caught. Had an M1 Tactical 18.5 previously but ended up selling it before I got a chance to bother grouse with it. Barrel is 21" VR with screw in chokes. Got it nib on Gunbroker last week for $225 Year of Manufacture is BN or 2000 Weight in this config is 6lb 4oz OAL is 42" http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f49/postban/Benelli%20M1%20Super%2090/100_2926.jpg http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f49/postban/Benelli%20M1%20Super%2090/100_2924.jpg http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f49/postban/Benelli%20M1%20Super%2090/100_2934.jpg http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f49/postban/Benelli%20M1%20Super%2090/100_2925.jpg Here it is compared to my 28" Montefeltro. http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f49/postban/Benelli%20M1%20Super%2090/100_2920.jpg http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f49/postban/Benelli%20M1%20Super%2090/100_2921.jpg http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f49/postban/Benelli%20M1%20Super%2090/100_2917.jpg http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f49/postban/Benelli%20M1%20Super%2090/100_2915.jpg Put a +4 extension on the M1 for comparison, 9 shots in this config.

schnabel Posted January 20, 2007 Author Share Posted January 20, 2007 very nice! the wood on it looks great, is that the normal benelli wood? Yeah, pulled it off the used rack at Gander Mountain, saw that wood and did not let go till they came and unlocked it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
