Hmm, I don't see the standard stock/7+1 listed in the 2000 catalog (1999 catalog too). It is legal in this configuration though. They do have the 4 round extension listed so buying a standard stocked M1 and buying/installing the 4 rounders is OK. They do sell the Practical which I got a few months ago (9+1) without any probs straight from Benelli (had to order).

Oddly enough, the 2000 catalog is giving the mag capacity of the Practical as 8+1 while the 1999 cat is 9(+1). I can fit 9 in the mag.

I have seen a few standard/7+1s occasionally but had not noted where I was at when I saw them as I already had my fill of Benelli shotguns and wasn't seriously looking for one. I did see a tactcial Nova that looks interesting (I think I will buy) with ghost ring.
