I have a Benelli M1 Super 90 for tactical/home defense. I just took a Tactical Shotgun course at The Tactical Defense Institute located in Southern Ohiowww.tdiohio.com and the gun performed flawlessly. I had a flashlight mounted to the underside of the extended magazine and still had no problems. There were no other M1s, but there were a couple of M2s there. The M2s failed many times, mainly with extraction. The consensus was that due to the inertia system of the Benelli autoloader, added weight such as side saddles and such, prevent the Benelli from operating 100%.
I am not sure this is correct evaluation of the problems with the M2.
However, I like the idea of a side saddle for the extra rounds and wondered if anyone has heard of such a thing affecting the performance of this high quality weapon?
I wrote to the folks at Benelli and two weeks later, I am still waiting for a response.
Any input is greatly appreciated.
