It’s nearly impossible to read anything about Benelli shotguns that doesn’t celebrate their inherent reliability, speed and balance. In the 20 gauge, it will cycle just about any kind of load up to 3-inch magnums. Through its simplicity and elegance, the Inertia Driven operating system never needs adjusting.
Inertia Driven Benelli shotguns are known to have fired over 500,000 rounds without a hitch. Shot residue is trapped in the barrel rather than cycled through the gun’s mechanism. Inertia Driven Benellis also burn cleaner than gas-operated semi-autos. With no gas cylinder, springs, action-bar linkage Benellis are famous for their lightning-quick recycling and perfect balance. Yet the underlying engineering is the big payoff.īenelli’s legendary Inertia Driven system has only three primary parts: the bolt body, the inertia spring and the rotating bolt head. Stainless steel, carbon fiber and the jet-fighter silhouette make Benelli semi-autos all the rage. Benilli must be the sexiest brand in shotguns today.
