The Benelli M2 Field is a semi-automatic hunting shotgun chambered in 12 gauge and 20 gauge. It uses Benelli’s Inertia Driven System for its action. The bolt is semi-fixed until the backwards force, vibrating through the gun, arrives to the bolt housing, the vibration rattles the bolt and it slides back. As it travels back it pushes against the inertia spring and once compressed all the way, the spring pushes back in turn the bolt travels forward. This system is used instead of letting gas or the initial explosion drive the bolt back. And, since the gases can’t seep through into the chamber there won’t be any carbon-build up.

Features include the ComforTech Plus Recoil Pad adds comfort and absorbs and dampens recoil. The vent rib acts as a guide leading to the bright red bar front sight. It’s lightweight at around 7 pounds. And, it’s capable of firing magnum loads.

Benelli recommends the M2 for hunting any winged game or shooting clays.
