*Loads new Benelli M1*
*sights target*
*pulls trigger*
"OOOOOWWE!!!" "This thing kicks like a mule!"

My experience with my new M1...
I still love it however, and is the gun I'm reaching for in the middle of the night.

Kernel:

Just a note to you. Beretta licensed Benelli to use their inertia recoil system.

Actually, Beretta owned Benelli shotguns division and divested itself of them just recently, I think last year, but not for sure on the date.

I've personally got a Beretta 1201FP3 that will handle ANY shotgun round made. Repeat any shell. I, too, am fortunate to have a reliable, right out of the box firearm. I would not give it up. If I can find another, I'll probably buy it.

Regards.

Do not only train, also teach.

Nightcrawler: They have all been discontinued, AFAIK. The fact it, though, there are still plently of Mossie autos in both dealer's and distributor's inventory. That's why they are still seemingly so available.
