Bigjim:

We have been having a little running conversation on the Super Sport. I two nights ago I was in the local Bass Pro Shop and Gander Mountain Sports.

They were each asking $1,799 for a Super Sport!

By my recollection that is a price increase of about $150 over two weeks ago.

I guess Benelli has a good thing and wants to cash in. Although, a little of the increase can be from recent exchange rate differences.

None-the-less I was surprised at the increase.

To the original poster:

Bottom line is a quality gun costs money. Do not compromise on quality. Wait, save your nickles and get what you really want, when you can. You will be happier.
