    SBE3 will run you $1800 the “same” gun in a retay will cost you $1225-1350. That is a pretty significant difference. I’m not advocating just saying. I’m working on purchasing my 2nd SBE3, this one in a 20ga.

    True for the SBE and A400 plus, but you can get most other decent shotguns under the $1,500 mark. A couple hundred bucks shouldn't sway someone's decision IMO

    Just because I don’t know, what is the difference between a 20gauge SBE and M2?

    Little bit different four arm design and the biggest difference being the new bolt design on the SBE3 that prevents you from accidentally disengaging the bolt. I've exclusively shot my new M2 20 all duck season and have set the gun down by the butt end too firm a couple times. You do that and it's gonna go "click" on your next trigger pull unless you reseat the bolt.

    The Benelli "click" cost me a turkey this season with my M2. Frustrating......
    I'm going to heaven for the weather and hell for the company.

    Be dangerous, unpredictable, and make a whole lot of noise.

    You also get the comfortech 3 on the sbe3. Just the 3rd generation recoil system

    I can honestly say I've never had the Benelli "click" out of all three that I own

    I've never had one click either.


    That's because when you own a 30 yr old Brown Stalker, ...you just go out and kill shit.

    Dibs, my unicorn for over 30 years. Had one in my hand and bought the A500R, duh. I kick myself every time I think of it.

    I bought the SBEIII in a 20g in November. I haven't shot anything else since. I have a buddy with a Retay, he likes it but for the 300 dollar difference, i'd buy the benelli again.

    The only way to ensure you’ll never have a click is to never buy a Benelli.
    Problem solved.

    I love not having to worry about setting my guns down on their butt.
    Or whether it shoots straight out of the box.
    Or whether Rob Robert’s polished my barrel right.
    Or if I need to install a sure cycle system.
    I guess you get the point now…

    Stand mine on the butt all the time. Never had it click. Any of the 4. Rob Roberts “polishes them all. Had an xterma 2 that shot 8” left. Can be fixed. Shooting high can easily

    You don’t get it with a SBE3.

    Sure cycle system? Never had to do any bull shit like that. Been shooting them for 15 years and haven't had a problem

    I don't have time to come home and polish every cunt hair of a square inch to make sure it's not going to mess up the finish. That's got to get old with that 1100 or whatever it is
