blackpowder Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 Why is it that the SBE II has a midrib bead and the M2 does not? I've heard that on a SBE you stack the beads to make a figure 8. Why would Benelli not do the same for the M2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackpowder Posted January 27, 2007 Author Share Posted January 27, 2007 Sooooo....does no one have an answer or is everyone just being shy all of a sudden? I did search the boards for an answer and didn't find it, maybe someone has a link to it? Curious minds want to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
photopro Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 I thought Yoda Tucker would have replied to this, I changed the pitiful bead on my M2 for a Fore & Aft Turkey sight by Truglo approx $22. photopro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucker301 Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 What is there to reply to? Why doesn't the M2 have a 3.5" chamber? Why doesn't it have the integrated receiver upper and barrel like the SBEII? Why isn't the M2 the same gun as the SBEII, only costing $300 less?

dagrizz Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Why is it that the SBE II has a midrib bead and the M2 does not? I've heard that on a SBE you stack the beads to make a figure 8. Why would Benelli not do the same for the M2? I'll also have to ask why?? While we are at it why don't they offer a ported barrel like the Super sports and Cordoba? If your heart is set on having a mid-bead then order the SBEII one and have your favorite gun smith install one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
photopro Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 There you go - it appears the reason is to make a $300 per gun saving !! photopro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackpowder Posted January 29, 2007 Author Share Posted January 29, 2007 Sorry I even asked, I should have known I'd get a smarta%$ comment for a legitimate question. All you would have had to say was that Benelli didn't put one on to save costs. The comments and attitude can go. Besides that, if I really wanted a mid bead, I'd of bought an SBEII. I just thought that maybe Benelli had a specific reason. Sorry for bothering you guys. I'll make sure not to do it again:mad: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucker301 Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 I knew I should have stayed out of this one . Just telling it like it is. I don't use a lot of sugar. Didn't mean to offend you, but the answer stands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackpowder Posted January 29, 2007 Author Share Posted January 29, 2007 Okay, I understand and appreciate that tucker. However, I took the replies to mean that I was complaining about my gun not having certain amenities and that is not the case. ****, I don't even WANT a mid bead. I simply am new to Benelli and I had a question. How was I to know that they did things differently between the SBEII and the M2 to save $ or market a different product? Now that I have been slammed and jumped on and labeled as a complainer, I now know that the two guns are made different like a Trans Am and a Firebird. One's made a little better and a little higher end. I thought that that is what the forum was for, so that questions can be answered. Or maybe that is not true and I need to call C/S for answers to my questions. I like this forum and I have learned alot here, but I think that people shouldn't jump to conclusions so quick.
