I took a look at a Benelli Super Black Eagle today. I was impressed. My dealer will sell it to me for $985 + tax and gun check. The one I handled had the wood stock and 26" barrel. Can anyone comment on this gun...good or bad. Is it worth the price? Is this a good price? My only other semi-auto shotgun I own is a Remington 1187 Premier that I bought about 12 years ago for about $450. How will the Benelli compare in quality, handling, reliability, durability, shootability, pointability, etc. to my Remington and other semi-auto shotguns on the market? Thanks for any and all feedback!
