How long has the Benelli M2 been on the market? I hear its pretty reliable and I'm trying to get a semi auto shotgun for home defense. I want something that is well tested and will last a long time.

How does the M2 do with light 2 3/4" dove and trap loads? Also, should my home defense shotgun be expected to run on these light loads? I only plan on using 2 3/4" 00 buck. But because I will be trusting my life to the weapon, it must be very reliable.

And overall, how is the M2?
