Cool! Enjoy the heck out of it.

Now, to be a true Benelliphile, you need to learn the "secret trick" on how to load an extra round. Maybe the dealer showed you. You fill the mag, the slip one shell under the bolt into the carrier, then a round in the chamber.

The trick is the extra shell in the carrier. In most semiautos this would cause a jam of the worst kind. In a Benelli it's just another advantage. -- Kernel
