Title: New Benelli Guns 2023
Post by: Glades on January 20, 2023, 02:11:16 PM
It looks like Benelli came out with a brand new M2 and brand new Montefeltro. Thoughts?

M2 doesn't seem much different but I'm not a fan of the montefeltro changes.  The pistol grip and forearm look awful.

Looks like they did what other companies are doing, finding ways to make them cheaper.

The M2 is priced about the same, but they removed the Comfortech option, which was a $300 option.
The Montefeltro you could buy for $1k (as I did mine), and now goes for $1500.

Ouch!  I'm glad I got the old model.

The new benelli m2 seems very similar to the franchi affinity3. Minus the tapped receiver......

Makes a guy think.

Pretty sure it has the new bolt.
