I also want to know. Been eyeing this up for awhile. Is any Benelli truly worth that much?
I was just looking at this today. A friend talked me out of it.

I see it's already out of stock.
They are among the best made. Beretta also makes fine semi-auto shotguns. Quite a pain to disassemble I hear.

Its a great running gun, and thats not a bad price. Im happy with the M2. And the versamax is a really good gas gun. But if you want the m4 because its the very top of the line then grab it.

The m4 is the best semi auto shotgun there is, imo. I believe it to be the most durable and reliable.
If it's so well made, how was a friend able to convince you to not purchase it? Honest inquiry, no offense intended.I was just looking at this today. A friend talked me out of it.

I don't need it. I was just browsing and it's a lot of money.
I wish I would have grabbed a Mossberg 930SPX when I had the chance. Great gun for ~$700.

I want one as well but can’t justify it financially. Other priorities at the moment.
Sold out
I have an M4 I bought a few years ago.
Once you get used to loading and especially unloading, its quick and reliable.
However, when I need a shotgun in a hurry, I instinctively grab my Mossberg 500. Not sure why but I can shoot it better and its more comfortable too me. Probably because ive been using pumps for almost 4 decades.
I bought the M4 specifically for home defense and generally use the Moss 500 for critters.
If youre into shotguns an M4 or equivalent is a must, its a whole other animal.
Also, in about 4 years and a couple thousands rounds, ive had zero issues.
When I bought mine it was $1400 with the extended mag tube. They have went up in price I believe.
There is something about firing 10-3 inch slugs as fast as an AR. Makes targets disappear.

I have a Benelli montefeltro and I love it. It’s light, shoulders well, 100% reliable and it’s just very well made. I got mine when gander outdoors was closing for $675.00.
I am new to shot guns/rifles in NY and was wondering if people can chime in what configuration of Beneli M4 will be legal in Westchester county NY. Not that I can find these in stock anywhere, but if I can - what configuration can I have and what can I not?
Thank you
Thank you
7 round tube with no evil features:
(i) a folding or telescoping stock;
(ii) a thumbhole stock;
(iii) a second handgrip or a protruding grip that can be held by the
non-trigger hand;
Or whatever evil features you want with 5 round tube.

I wanted an M4 for the "cool" factor and because of the legend behind it. Settled on a Beretta 1301 Tactical. Cost me like $1200-1300? Bought the Nordic tube and clamp and the Mesa Urbino pistol grip stock (maybe $250?). I've read multiple places, for what it's worth, that the 1301 handles light and heavy loads, a complaint that some people have about the M4. It worked for me with slugs, 00 buck and #8 bird. It's also faster I believe (though honestly, I'm not sure who runs shotguns that fast to notice) than the M4.
Unless you want an M4 because of history/Hollywood/cool factor, 1301 is probably a smarter buy. Not that the M4 is a bad gun, I just think it's an old design and newer ones are just as good or better and a lot cheaper too.

Benelli M4 Model 11703. Comes with a 5 shot tube which can be upgraded $$$ to a 7 rounder. There is also a Cerakoted version of the same model.
Is it worth it?.......... Well the M4 represents the very best of tube fed tactical shotguns so if you want the very best then yes I would say it is.
Benelli M1 cycles with inertia M4 is gas driven by two pistons.

I have no experience with this particular beretta and beretta makes great guns but I compared the Beneli montfeltro vs the beretta A300 and A400 and I hated the berettas. Very heavy and clunky. Shouldered horribly. I shrimped and saved for 18 months to get the Beneli and I’m not sorry not for a moment.

I bought mine for $1400 back in 2013. Take down and cleaning is pretty easy. Parts/upgrades can be pricey though. I left mine stock as is. I've run shooting drills with friends where I'd shoot about 100-200 rounds of a mix of buck shot and slugs, handles the recoil very well and allows for fast follow up shots. I've also used it for shooting clay, while not ideal with its sights, it's worked pretty well. My only complaint is the "civilian stock" it comes with is a longer full stock, wish it was a bit shorter. I'd upgrade but again, parts are expensive. 10/10 shotgun for me
Mesa tactical makes a nice shorter fixed stock for it dont believe too pricey.

Just checked out their site, I think i'll be grabbing one. $140-160 is a realistic price for me so thanks for suggesting them. When things get $200+, that's when I prioritize other things (like ammo or a red dot haha)

I’m not sure if it’s the same as the one I have on my 1301, but it’s a great stock. The pistol grip is a little chunky, but limb saver is nice and has an adjustable comb piece. Good value.
