Editor’s Note: "The Benelli M3 is my favorite shotgun of all time. It might be the most capable and versatile shotgun on the market. And it’s one of the rare convertible shotguns. A convertible shotgun is one that allows the user to swap between a semi-automatic action and a pump action. The benefit of the M3’s system is that you can use any shotgun round on the market. The pump-action mode allows it to cycle low recoiling rounds that won’t cycle in a semi-auto action." -- Travis Pike

FINAL VERDICT

The Benelli M3 is the sibling of the M2 and M4 -- nestling in that nice middle area. It offers plenty to keep things interesting though. In fact, it's a favorite around the Pew Pew office.
