I have owned this gun for about 12 years and fired approximately 500 rounds through it. For some years it was my main duck gun, using Federal Speed Shok 7/8 ounce load of No 4 shot through a half choke. This was a particularly effective load for ducks and geese out to 45 yards. This gun has been cleaned after every use and is in very good condition. The Benelli M2 in 20 gauge is a very nicely balanced gun, comes to the shoulder very quickly and is very easy to shoot. This gun would be ideal for someone that is starting out, a person of smaller stature or someone who loves quality Benelli shotguns. It has the standard 26 inch barrel and the bore is in excellent condition. The gun comes in its original factory hard case with all 5 chokes, shim kit and other accessories. I am happy for this gun to be picked up, otherwise I will arrange for the gun to be couriered via the H&F store to H&F store normal process (cost is an additional $70 for this service). A current FAL/police mail order form must be used for a successful purchase.
