Benelli M2 20 Gauge in Brief

[@thelastlatchkeykid8466]

Hey Randy! Thank you for your reviews, both here and on your website. You’ve been the only consistent unbiased source for shotgun information for years and many of us truly appreciate your analysis and personal opinions when it’s time to buy.

[@RandyWakeman]

You're quite welcome.

[@chootum8295]

Thank you Randy. Great review.

[@RandyWakeman]

My pleasure!

[@bmoorear]

That’s a great looking shotgun. I picked up a Mossberg SA-20 last year based on your review, it has been fantastic. In fact, my son kinda hijacked it from me so I had to get myself I Weatherby Element upland.

[@RandyWakeman]

What are you going to get when the Weatherby gets hijacked? :)

[@jaydenhall187]

That’s a kids gun anyway.

[@avidwaterfowler7522]

I was in the market for an m2 20ga, but opted for an older one. I prefer the higher quality comfort tech. Stock option. I was fortunate to find a traded in as new gun recently.

[@RandyWakeman]

I'm with you.

[@bobbyscott8024]

Hey Randy, thanks for the review! I was wondering if you still hunt some with the A-5 Sweet Sixteen during Phesant season and do you feel the same about it now?

[@RandyWakeman]

With a 12 gauge semi-auto, I use a Fabarm L4S. For 20 gauge SA, either a B-80 or an old style M2.

[@jeffreyhall838]

That is a dandy looking shotgun indeed....Randy how about reviewing one of the new Stoeger 3020 shotguns (sku 36004 would be nice) ...Stoeger made several changes on these that should be improvements but id like to see your review

[@RandyWakeman]

No thank you!

[@jake300win]

I have the older m3020 it's been a great gun. 500.00 for a Turkish shotgun that works and, I think that's fair. I picked up a retay at the store the other day. I would buy the stoeger or franchi. No way am I paying 1000 plus for a retay. It felt like a cheaper Benelli copy than the stoeger or Benelli

[@jeffreyhall838]

Yeah everybody aint looking to spend 1k+ on a shotgun and the guys I know that shoot Stoegers seem to like them. I am considering a 3020 for some of my rough country rabbit hunts that I dont want to take my Benelli's

[@rjhammonds7440]

i got one about a year ago for $100 have dove,goose,duck,squirrel and rabbit hunted with it with zero problems what so ever

[@nickl8247]

Has the quality of the plastic stock material stayed the same as your older M2 ??

[@RandyWakeman]

No, it is a cheaper stock.

[@nickl8247]

Thanks Randy,

I handled the new montefeltro this past weekend and it felt like a great gun. I’ve been considering one with a 24 inch barrel but do you think having the shorter barrel might make it butt heavy?

[@RandyWakeman]

No.

[@TheRobTuber]

Do you think this is the best 20ga waterfowl shotgun on the market or do you recommend others?

[@RandyWakeman]

My version of a mallard gun, with steel shot, always points to 12 gauge.

[@brentbusick2245]

I use my older M2 20 gauge on everything from woodcock up to big geese. With NO problems. Anyone that tells you you need a 12 gauge should think again.

[@dbuckner902010]

Good review I am personally disappointed in this new release when I played with one at the nwtf convention it felt cheap compared to my older m2 I personally feel benelli is missing the mark don’t get me wrong I love my m2 And I am just a dedicated turkey hunter but for $1300 bucks doesn’t come drilled and tapped no over size bolt release and having to buy a spring from wolf or taran tactical to eliminate the click

[@RandyWakeman]

They of course want you to spend the extrs scratch on an SBE3 0).

[@MC-je7qm]

Is the receiver drilled and tapped?

[@RandyWakeman]

No .

[@TommyboyGTP]

Would be awesome in 16 gauge

[@gennarojerrypiscitelli4549]

Is Benelli offering this improved M2 20ga in left handed version?

[@RandyWakeman]

Not that I know of.

[@Squizzle-56]

I would rather have a cardboard box if it would save me money.

[@RandyWakeman]

Sure it will-- but if you want a shotgun with that box, it will cost you more.
