I am in agreement with this post. If I needed a 3" gun I would choose the M2. I see nothing of any real magnitude gained with a Vinci.

Don't remind me. I had one of those left shooting Xtrema1's. I had a very bad experience with that gun and Beretta Service or shall we say lack of it. To make a long story short I got rid of the gun....
Handled a Vinci in Max4 at my local Cabela's store last week. Personally I'm not impressed. The Vinci didn't feel any better than my SBEII and it was just as ugly as pictured and I really don't need...
Hopefully you find a shell catcher for the gun or you may not be welcome at some trap clubs. Nothing like hitting an expensive trap gun or shooter with your empties.
Have you checked the bolt recesses in the barrel to be sure there is no residue in them? This could be the problem as the gun won't fire if the bolt can't lock.
I checked out the Benelli videos, the specs and the rest of the advertising plus the price of the Vinci in my area and came to a conclusion. That conclusion is I'm not impressed. In my opinion the...
No matter how many times I look at this gun it just doesn't get any better. I'm disappointed. Good luck to Benelli with this gun... I think they'll need it.
I like the engineering ideas but wish the Vinci was a little more stylish like the SBEII. Personally I think there was way too much hype for what I'm seeing. I'll stay with my SBEII.
I would give this gun a through cleaning including the bolt return spring in the butt stock especially if the gun has been soaked in the rain or snow. I'm assuming your shooting loads heavier than...
My apology for the miss spelling. Should have read patent I believe. I corrected the post.
Novaking its a break open auto. like this but a hunting verson https://www.berettausa.com/e2wProduc...381:4100001524#
After looking at this gun I must admit this is probably the new Vinci...
Thank you gentlemen for the information. I think the Kriss type system is probably the new innovation. I'm sure there is a patient on the Kriss system that Benelli either bought the rights to use or...
I guess I'll have to tell everyone what's in the box. It's a clip fed SBEII with an additional belt feed attachment for the snow goose season. All the shotgun shell manufacturers are going to love...
I have an SBEII with a non comfort-tech black synthetic that kicked like a mule with the factory recoil pad on it. The pad that was on the gun appears to be the same pad that is used on the wood...
Shyda's Gunshop in Lebanon,Pa. There were 2 left. One in black with a 28"barrel and one camo with a 24" barrel after I bought mine.
They are SBE2's and they're not at Grice's. If those guns are still in the shop... I may get one of them. They only had 3.
Black model a little under a grand,Camo model a little over a grand or so if I recall these prices correctly. Anyway I'm thinking this is a good deal.
A gunshop in my area has some SBE2's without the comfort-tec stock on sale. Is the recoil about the same as the SBE1 or a little less ? Thanks in advance for your help.
I use snap caps in all my guns. Don't want any firing pin or spring problems.
Anyone shoot large steel shot like T or BBB with the factory chokes. If so which choke do you use?
