By the mid-1960s gas-operated semi-automatic shotguns were considered
to be state-of-the-art fi rearms, and appeared to be the way of the future.
At the same time, attempts were being made to develop
a non-gas-operated system, but the best of those attempts
resulted in little improvement, nor advantage over gas.
In 1967, Benelli introduced the Model 121 semi-automatic
shotgun featuring a revolutionary cleaner, faster system based
on inertia, rather than gas bleed-off which is prone to fouling. The
performance of this innovative operating system was mechanically reliable
and safe. Benelli’s Inertia Driven® system was considered a milestone in the
evolution of semi-automatic fi rearms in its reliability, simplicity, strength and
resistance to residue build-up. But what really caught the imagination of the
shooting world was not just the system’s speed of operation, but the total
reliability that guarantees every shot will fi re.
From those who founded the company right up to present day employees, Benelli continues to make revolutionary contributions to the fi rearms world, and the results of that work speaks for itself.
For 40 years Benelli has
embraced the latest
in technology, which
continues today and will
do so in the future.
INERTIA DRIVEN SYSTEMBest Operating System ever devised
BENELLIUSA.COM THINK SAFETY: BEFORE HANDLING ANY FIREARM UNDERSTAND ITS OPERATION.2
Reliable — The Inertia Driven® system never needs adjusting and will cycle
anything from light field loads to 3½" magnums with consistent reliability,
year, after year, after year. In fact, there are Inertia Driven® Benelli shotguns that
have fired over 500,000 rounds, still in the field and functioning perfectly.
Simple — Inertia Driven® is simple with only three
primary parts: the bolt body, the inertia spring and the
rotating bolt head. Simple is better.
Faster — With a greatly reduced mass of parts, Inertia
Driven® is faster.
Cleaner — Gas, smoke and burnt powder stay in the barrel
where they belong, rather than being channeled into
the gun’s mechanism, as they are in gas systems.
Strong — The strong steel locking lugs on the Inertia Driven® system’s rotating
bolt head not only lock steel-to-steel into the gun’s barrel; the lugs lock-in
even tighter during firing.
Low Maintenance — The Inertia Driven® system is much cleaner so gun
cleaning takes a fraction of the time that it takes to clean a gas-system gun.
Light Weight — The Inertia Driven® system is not only incredibly simple, it
is also lightweight, allowing Benelli shotguns to be some of the lightest
semi-automatic shotguns ever produced.
Perfect Balance — With no springs, action bar linkage or heavy gas cylinder
under the fore-end, Benelli’s Inertia Driven® shotguns balance like a fine
game gun should.
Benelli’s automated manufacturing
system produces the Inertia-Driven®
bolt system with surgical precision.

“THE LAW OF INERTIA”— is Newton’s First Law of Physics and is as consistent and
unchangeable as The Law of Gravity. Benelli has harnessed this basic law of physics in the
Inertia Driven® system to operate the world’s fastest, simplest and most reliable semi-automatic shotguns.
It’s not boasting, it’s the law — The Law of Inertia.
CHAMBERING
As the bolt assembly moves into
battery, the locking head pin moves along a
curved track in the bolt body to rotate the
steel bolt head into engagement with the
steel barrel extension. The cartridge drop
lever is down, the red dot indicating that the
gun is cocked.
FIRING
When the trigger is pulled, every
part of the shotgun except the bolt body
moves rearward. The curved track in the bolt
body, which is moving forward relative to the
rest of the gun, presses against the locking
head pin, turning the bolt head even tighter
into the barrel extension. At the same time,
the inertia spring is compressed between
bolt head and body. The cartridge drop lever
moves up, allowing a shell to move from the
magazine to the carrier.
M AG A Z I N E T U B E
STEP 1:STEP 1:
STEP 2:STEP 2:
RECOIL
Near the end of the recoil cycle,
chamber pressure drops to a safe level and
the gun’s rearward motion slows. The heavy
inertia spring then thrusts the bolt assembly
rearward, unlocking the rotating bolt head,
extracting the spent shell from the chamber
and pulling it against the ejector.
EJECTION
As the empty shell exits the receiver,
the energy of the moving bolt assembly re-cocks
the hammer and compresses the recoil spring
in the buttstock. The recoil spring then
thrusts the bolt assembly forward, lifting the
on-coming shell into position and chambering
a fresh cartridge. The gun is ready to fi re
again in a fraction of a second!

BENELLIUSA.COM THINK SAFETY: KEEP FINGER OUTSIDE TRIGGER GUARD UNTIL READY TO FIRE.4
Benelli’s ComforTech™ system revolutionizes firearms technology. For
centuries, the laws of physics have defined shooting comfort. If you
wanted less recoil, your choices were to make the shot charge lighter
or the gun heavier. Reducing the shot charge
compromises on-target performance, and
increased gun weight affects the speed and
balance of the shotgun.
You can’t repeal the laws of physics, but
sometimes you can fool Mother Nature.
Benelli reached outside the firearms industry
to materials scientists, computer specialists and design engineers
to take a fresh look at recoil and how to tame it. The result? A new
stock system that reduces felt recoil by as much as 48 percent over the
competition. It’s often said there’s nothing new in guns, but the
ComforTech™ system is unlike anything ever seen before. Previous
generations of firearms designers never had access to the computer
modeling, high-speed photography and state-of-the-art synthetics that
make this revolution in shooting comfort possible.
Benelli’s technical department
utilizes Computer Aided Design (CAD)
software programs for cutting-edge
design-and, Computer Aided
Engineering– (CAE) for precise
structural calculations of the
finished elements.

Maximum Stress
Minimum Stress
To test durability, the stock was subjected to 100,000 brutal cycles with the recoil pad removed in a fixture exerting 20% more force than the most powerful 3½" magnum loads available. Testing was conducted at temperature extremes ranging from 150° F to -75° F. In the end, the ComforTech™ stock looked and performed as well as it did when new!
COMFORTECH™ STOCK
The ComforTech™ stock is split diagonally from the heel of
the buttstock to a point just behind the pistol grip. Connecting
the two pieces are eleven synthetic recoil-absorbing chevrons
that form a highly effective recoil barrier.
Computer simulation showed Benelli engineers the path of recoil (blue areas
are minimum stress) through a gun stock. The ComforTech™ stock was computer
designed so that even the exterior shell flexes to dampen recoil.
Synthetic Recoil-Absorbing Chevrons
COMFORTECH™ RECOIL MEASUREMENTS
Benelli engineers developed specialized machinery to measure and graph recoil. Here a Benelli Super Black Eagle is plotted along with an SBE II with ComforTech™. A dramatic reduction with ComforTech™ can be seen in all three peaks of recoil — firing, bolt cocking the hammer and the end of bolt travel.
The Super Black Eagle II does what many thought was impossible; it is both the lightest gun in its class and the softest-kicking. Imagine how fresh you’ll be at the end of a long hunting day with that combination!

How the competition stacks up against the ComforTech™ system:
• WEIGHT COMPARISON – the competition weighs 13% to 15% more (on average, that is a pound or more!)
• RECOIL COMPARISON – the competition kicks up to 48% harder.
• MUZZLE CLIMB COMPARISON – the competition recovers as much as 69% slower. To put it simply, Benelli
engineers have created the lightest, softest kicking shotgun on earth. It gets back on target faster than
any other and don’t forget, Benelli is already the fastest cycling auto-loading shotgun in the world!
At Benelli, we can’t break the laws of physics, but we can bend them just a little.
COMFORTECH™ SYSTEM REDUCES MUZZLE CLIMB
The Super Black Eagle II with ComforTechTM system reduces muzzle climb by 15% and recovery time is 20% faster, when compared to the original Super Black Eagle.
M U Z Z L E C L I M B
Forget about losing sight of a fleeing flock. You’ll get 15% less muzzle climb and 20% faster recovery with the Super Black Eagle II. Bagging doubles will become the rule, not the exception.
They’ll wonder how you do it. You’ll know the reason is that your recovery time is as much as 69% faster than competitive shotguns. You’ll bag birds while they’re still trying to get back on target.

Cryogenic physics has revealed that strange things happen
when matter is taken to temperatures of -300° F; gases
become liquids and solids, ceramics become conductors
of electricity and steel is changed at the
molecular level.
When a Benelli barrel is cryogenically
treated, all of the stresses caused by hammer
forging are relieved and the surface of the bore
takes on a more even-grained, slicker surface that offers less resistance
to wads and shot charges. With a smoother and more uniform surface,
Benelli Crio® Barrels not only pattern better, they stay cleaner longer.
Crio® Chokes are the second part of the Benelli Crio® System. Extra
long choke tubes, with a more gradual constriction, coupled with the slick
surface created by the cryogenic treatment, puts more pellets on target.
The Benelli Crio® System improves patterns by as much as 13.2% and
yields denser, more uniform shot patterns.
CRIOCRIO® SYSTEMDenser pat terns with 13.2% more pellets on target
BENELLIUSA.COM THINK SAFETY: REGULAR CLEANING IS AN IMPORTANT PART OF GUN SAFETY. CLEAN YOUR FIREARM OFTEN.8
The Crio® System combines a barrel frozen
to -300° F with a specially designed longer
choke tube that is also cryogenically treated.
The result is a denser, more uniform pattern
with up to 13.2% more pellets on target.

When compared to the competition, the new Crio® Barrel puts 13.2% more pellets in a 30" circle. That’s bird-busting power you’ll see in the field! This sort of pattern performance once required special barrels and aftermarket choke tubes. With the Crio® System, you get it right out of the box!
CRIO® CHOKEThe specially designed longer choke tubes of the Crio® System allows for more gradual constriction of the shot charge, which reduces pellet deformation. Frozen to -300° F, Crio® Chokes have a more evenly grained and slicker surface that provides less resistance to the shot charge as it passes down the bore. When coupled with a Crio® Barrel, the result is as much as 13.2% more pellets on target.

WHY FREEZE BARRELS?
Hammer-forging induces

the barrel to -300° F
changes the steel at the
molecular level, leaving
a more even grain structure.
The result? The barrel flexes
more predictably and has
a smoother bore surface
that resists fouling.

Benelli includes a set of shims to make customizing the gun’s drop and cast quick and simple.
THE SUPER BLACK EAGLE II SETS THE STANDARD for styling, versatility and performance by which all
other semi-auto shotguns are judged. That judgment is based on unfailing reliability — the kind of reliability
that you can count on, shot, after shot, after shot. As the original 3½" semi-auto shotgun, the Super Black Eagle
was on the cutting edge of shotgun development. Utilizing the proven Benelli Inertia Driven® bolt mechanism
allows the Super Black Eagle II to shoot 2¾", 3" and even 3½" magnum ammunition without adjustments.
The Super Black Eagle II also incorporates some basic improvements, like the ComfortTech™ system,
reducing recoil up to 48% without adding any moving parts or weight. Compared to competing brands, the
Benelli weighs 13 to 15% less — on average, that’s more than a pound less! The ComforTech™ system

THINK SAFETY:
THE M2 FIELD IS THE WORKHORSE OF THE BENELLI SEMI-AUTO LINE. Light, nimble, but ruggedly built,
the Benelli M2 is built around the ultra-reliable Inertia Driven® bolt mechanism. The Inertia Driven® system
allows the M2 to digest nearly any 12-gauge cartridge, from 2¾" target loads to the heaviest 3" magnums.
Benelli engineers have also adapted the ComforTech™ recoil system for the M2. This revolutionary system
reduces felt recoil by up to 48% and cuts muzzle climb by 15%. When combined, this puts the shooter
back on target up to 69% faster than with any other comparable semi-automatic shotgun. The M2 is not only
faster, but with the new ComforTech™ system, it may be the most comfortable shotgun you will ever shoot.
The M2 is a workhorse with the speed of a thoroughbred.

CORDOBACORDOBAManages hot-barreled, high-volume shooting with ease
BENELLIUSA.COM THINK SAFETY: ALWAYS WEAR EYE AND EAR PROTECTION WHEN SHOOTING.18
INSPIRED BY THE HIGH VOLUME DOVE SHOOTING found around Cordoba, Argentina, Benelli engineers designed
the Cordoba as a lightning-fast hunting gun with all the advanced features of a serious sporting clays shotgun.
Incorporated into the Cordoba is the 10-mm tapered sporting rib favored by competition shooters and porting to
keep barrel climb to a minimum. The ComforTech™ stock cushions the blow when ammo isn’t measured in boxes,
but by cases in an afternoon. The ComforTech™ system also helps reduce barrel climb and puts the shooter back
on target 69% faster, so that the Cordoba just may be the fastest fi eld gun ever built. A Crio® barrel and extended
Crio® choke tubes put more pellets on target and the whole package is fi nished in matte black GripTight® coating or
Advantage® Max-4 HD™, so a refl ected fl ash won’t give you away.
Extended Crio® Choke tubes are standard. 12-gauge in 28" and 30" barrels. 20-gauge in 28" barrels only.
Extended Crio® Chokes reduce pellet deformation and the ported barrel nearly eliminates muzzle climb allowing for fast second target acquisition. A high-visibility red bar sight provides fast sight alignment.

080SUPERSPORT & SPORT II8SUPERSPORT & SPORT II8SUPERSPORT & SPORT IIThe ultimate “speed guns” for clay games
THINK SAFETY:
THE BENELLI SUPERSPORT AND SPORT II ARE THE ULTIMATE “speed guns” for sporting clays. The
SuperSport’s ComforTech™ recoil-dampening system allows the shooter to recover for the critical second shot
up to 69% faster than with other comparable shotguns — that’s fast! Couple the quick recovery speed with
a ported barrel that keeps muzzle climb to a minimum and it’s doubly fast. And the ComforTech™ system’s
special gel recoil pad and comb insert reduce felt recoil by up to 48% compared to the competition.
For traditionalists, the Sport II’s stock features beautifully fi gured A-Grade walnut with a satin luster
fi nish, a right-hand contour gel recoil pad and cut checkering on both pistol grip and fore-end.
When one clay often separates the winner from the losers, the SuperSport and Sport II’s
superior reliability, faster recovery time, lower recoil and denser shot patterns is
almost like having an unfair advantage.

LIKE THE BIG-BROTHER 12-GAUGES, Benelli’s 20-gauge SuperSport and Sport II
were both designed with sporting clays in mind. Traditionalists love the look and feel of
the Sport II with a stock cut from beautifully fi gured A-Grade walnut fi nished to a satin
luster. Cut-checkering graces both the pistol grip and fore-end, and a contoured
gel-pad fi ts the butt stock. The racy-looking SuperSport features a carbon-fi ber fi nished
stock, incorporating the ComforTech™ system to accommodate high-volume shooting. Extended
Crio® chokes come standard with both the Sport II and SuperSport.
Benelli’s original Cordoba came in 12-gauge — a gun developed for high-volume shooting
anywhere in the world. But when ammo on an afternoon is measured in cases rather than boxes,
dove afi cionados choose the Cordoba’s 20-gauge version. This handy gun incorporates ShellView™ ,
which allows you to check the shells in your magazine at a glance.

be slim and graceful while the light-weight, anodized aluminum receiver keeps weight to a minimum. Chambered
for 3" magnum loads in both the 12- and 20-ga., the Montefeltro is equally at home in New England woodcock
cover as in a Louisiana duck blind. This is one gun that looks as good as it shoots. Stocked with beautifully fi nished
satin walnut, the Montefeltro is the gun the wingshooting purist who wants the added
advantage of a semi-auto and the feel of a classic game gun.
Benelli includes a set of shims to make customizing the gun’s
drop and cast a snap.

Grooving at the top of the receiver extends the sight plane for fast and consistent target acquisition.
Benelli Inertia Driven™ system uses a rotary bolt head for secure lockup and lightening-quick functioning. It’s the truest example of “less is more” in gun design.

IT SEEMS THAT SOUTHPAWS HAVE
ALWAYS BEEN IGNORED by gun manufacturers. Over the years their choices have been few and, in
many cases, limited to cosmetic changes to right-hand guns. Benelli has changed that minority status and produced
a selection of semi-autos created especially for the left-handed shooter.
The Benelli fl agship semi-auto, the Super Black Eagle II, is made in a left-hand version with a specially designed
ComforTech™ stock that features a gel pad contoured to fi t the left shoulder pocket. The Benelli workhorse M2 Field
also comes with left-handed ComforTech™ stock and, like the SBE II, in two patterns of camo or black synthetic.
The classic Montefeltro left-hand comes stocked with satin fi nished walnut. With three different left-hand models,
there’s a southpaw gun for every occasion.
COMFORTECH™ GEL RECOIL PAD
The Benellli engineers have thought of everything. There’s even a Gel recoil pad on the SBE II and M2 specifi cally designed to fi t the left shoulder. The ergonomic shape spreads the impact over a larger area for less felt recoil.
▲ This special synthetic gel comb insert not only cushions the shooter’s cheek during recoil, it also has a slippery surface that allows the cheek to slide along the surface for added comfort. Available in 3 comb sizes, ComforTech™ stocks only.

THE BENELLI SUPERNOVA EMBODIES A MODULAR DESIGN CONCEPT in a
pump-action shotgun. With the optional SteadyGrip™ stock, the SuperNova can
be transformed into a high-performance turkey gun or mount a fully-rifl ed slug
barrel for tack-driving accuracy on deer. There’s even a barrel with rifl e sights
for home defense and a SuperNova Tactical fi tted with a ghost-ring rear sight
and pistol grip.
At the heart of this new pump gun is a lightweight steel skeleton framework
over-molded with a high-tech polymer, making the new SuperNova super-light, super-strong and
almost completely impervious to any weather condition. But the SuperNova isn’t just tough on the
outside, with its dual-action bars and two-lug rotary bolt head that locks up steel-to-steel inside
the barrel, the SuperNova is rock solid to the core.
Built super tough, the SuperNova makes no compromises as the ultimate pump-action gun for waterfowl, turkey or as a slug gun for deer.
The SuperNova’s newly styled trigger guard, similar to the Super Black Eagle II, allows for 30% more fi nger room for a gloved hand. In addition, a new larger safety button provides easy acquisition and quick, positive function.

BENELLIUSA.COM THINK SAFETY: KNOW HOW TO USE YOUR GUN SAFELY.38
BACK WHEN EVERYONE thought that the pump-action shotgun couldn’t
be improved, Benelli unveiled the Nova Pump. Completely original and innovative, the
Nova Pump incorporates a polymer stock and lightweight receiver into a single unit for unsurpassed
strength and weather resistance. Italian styling and high-tech ergonomics make the gun not only pleasing to
look at, but a delight to hold and handle. Distinctive grooves on the pistol grip and fore-end in place of conventional
checkering provides a positive gripping surface and compliments the Nova’s innovative engineering.
With dual-action bars and rotary head locking lugs, the Nova will handle anything from target loads to 3½" magnums.
Available in Black synthetic, Advantage® Max-4 HD™, and new Realtree® APG HD™ fi nishes, and as a youth model, the
Benelli Nova is the most versatile pump-action shotgun ever made.
Benelli’s Nova is truly a 21st Century pump shotgun. Corrosion proof polymer is over-molded on a skeleton framework to form the one-piece receiver and buttstock, in a revolutionary shotgun manufacturing process. The lightweight polymer stock also provides plenty of room for mounting an optional 14-oz. recoil reducer.

WHEN THE U.S. MARINE CORPS went shopping for a combat shotgun they bought a Benelli. That’s because a
combat shotgun has to function the first time, every time. The Benelli M4 does it for the U.S. military and now it
can be the centerpiece of your own home defense plan.
Benelli engineers developed a unique Auto Regulating Gas Operated (A.R.G.O.) system. Dual stainless steel,
self-cleaning pistons located just ahead of the chamber operate directly against the bolt assembly. The M4 Tactical
comes standard with a Picatinny rail for optics, a fully adjustable ghost-ring rear sight and fixed-blade front sight
and a black synthetic pistol-grip style stock. An optional standard stock is offered.
Benelli’s versatile, reliable M4 serves our armed forces in some of the world’s toughest terrains.
The stainless steel pistons are required to move only ½" for complete cycling which results in a faster operation with minimum vibration and quick target acquisition.

BENELLI’S SUPERNOVA TACTICAL
IS A MODULAR concept pump-action
shotgun that can be quickly reconfi gured with different special-purpose stocks to
be ready for any home defense or tactical situation. The ComforTech™ stock absorbs nearly 48% of
felt recoil to dampen the jolt of heavy buck shot loads. The tactical pistol grip stock turns the SuperNova
into a rock solid shooting platform for optical sights and slugs at long yardage.
The Nova Pump Tactical comes with either open rifl e sights or click-adjustable military style ghost-ring
aperture sights. The Nova H2O Pump Tactical utilizes a corrosion-resistant chrome and nickel-plated
components to ensure function in the harshest conditions.
Optional three-dot tritium inserts can be easily installed into this military spec ghost-ring sight. (see page 59).

JUST IMAGINE A .300 WINCHESTER MAGNUM that feels like you’re shooting a light .270 and you’ll understand
what this rifl e from Benelli is all about. The R1’s ComforTech™ recoil dampening stock, cuts felt recoil. To put it
more graphically, other high-powered rifl es kick about twice as hard.
Three different thicknesses of quick-change pads for adjusting length-of-pull and three different comb inserts
to adjust for drop are available. Also included is a totally unique accessory — a shim kit to make
precise stock adjustments for drop and cast providing a truly custom fi t.

R1 RIFLER1 RIFLEWhen there’s no compromise for accuracy
BENELLIUSA.COM THINK SAFETY: KEEP YOUR FINGER OUTSIDE OF THE TRIGGER GUARD UNTIL READY TO FIRE.54
SIMPLICITY, STURDINESS AND INGENIOUS DESIGN are the distinguishing features of the patented Auto
Regulating Gas Operated (A.R.G.O), system — the mechanism that’s at the heart of the R1 rifl e. The operating
system contains a short-stroke piston, which captures pressure to create suffi cient force to operate the bolt,
and which also helps to absorb some of the recoil. Add to this unique and reliable operating system, the
recoil-dampening ability of optional recoil-pads of varying thicknesses for length-of-pull adjustments and much
of the sting of recoil removed from the R1.
Another unique feature of the R1 rifl e is interchangeable barrels, meaning that one rifl e can convert to any
caliber currently available from an ever-expanding selection of calibers from Benelli. Also included is a shim
kit, providing precise stock adjustments for drop and cast for a truly custom fi t.
Quick detachable magazine holds three to four rounds, depending on caliber.
The R1 is perfect for shooters of all sizes. Optional recoil pads are available for the desired length-of-pull (135/8", 14", 143/8").

The reliability of the R1’s Auto Regulating Gas Operated (A.R.G.O.) system has been proven in the M1014 military shotgun and has been adapted for centerfi re rifl e cartridges with a three-lugged rotary bolt. The rifl e’s gas cylinder is positioned just in front
of the chamber allowing for short operating rods and reduced recoiling mass.
GAS PORTThe gas port is located just forward of the chamber
where the gases are hotter and cleaner resulting in less fouling and more reliable cycling.
SIMPLE DESIGN GAS PISTONSTwo short stroke, self-cleaning gas pistons push directly
against the R1’s bolt body, eliminating the need for connecting linkage or heavy action bars.
TORQUE LOCKING SYSTEMSystem ensures repeatable accuracy when changing barrels, because tension remains
constant shot after shot.
Optional open sights feature a fully adjustable rear blade and front sight with a special red fi ber optic insert.
O P T I O N A L R 1 R I F L E S I G H T P A C K A G E
Chamber pressure is contained by the massive three-lug rotary locking head, which locks into the steel barrel extension.
Usually only found on custom-made rifl es, the R1’s barrel is cryogenically frozen to –300˚ F which changes the steel at the molecular level. The result, better barrel harmonics providing superior accuracy.
55
PISTONSSince the pistons push directly against the bolt, they are required
to move only ½-inch for complete cycling which results in fast operation with minimum vibration.

TOM KNAPPTOM KNAPPBenelli “Top Guns” are the greatest
BENELLIUSA.COM THINK SAFETY: NEVER POINT A FIREARM, AT ANYTHING YOU DO NOT INTEND TO SHOOT.66
TOM KNAPP, recognized as the greatest exhibition shooter of modern times, appears at more than 140 live
shows a year in the United States and Europe, thrilling countless spectators with his seemingly impossible
feats with shotguns. Of course the shotguns that Tom shoots are Benellis.
The holder of two World Records for hand-thrown clay targets — 9 clays with a Benelli M1 Super 90 in
1993 and 8 clays with a Benelli Nova Pump in 2000, Tom set out to do it again. On October 20th, 2004,
he did the unbelievable, shooting 10 clay targets out of the air in 2.2 seconds with a Benelli M2 Field with
ComforTech™. Tom says that hard work and commitment are key elements to success, but added, “Without
the right equipment I could never do it. That’s why I shoot Benellis.”
Tom’s M1 Super 90–retired after 500,000 rounds fired – still in perfect working condition.

WORLD RECORD NO. 1
Tom joined Benelli in 1993 when he set the wor ld record with his Benelli M1 Super 90 by throwing nine standard clay targets and breaking them with individual shots in 2.3 seconds.
WORLD RECORD NO. 2
On July 19, 2000 Tom Knapp, with his Benelli Nova pump in one hand, threw eight clay targets in the air with his other hand and broke ever yone of them with individual shots in an amazing 2.1 seconds.
WORLD RECORD NO. 3
In Murfreesboro, Tennessee, on October 20th, 2004 Tom Knapp set out to make histor y again. With his 12-ga. Benelli M2 fit ted with a ComforTech™ stock and extended magazine tube, Tom launched ten clay targets into the air with one hand, shooting all ten with individual shots in an unbelievable 2.2 seconds.
Tom Knapp finally retired his old Benelli M1 Super 90 in 2006 when he donated it to the Buffalo Bill Historic Center in Cody, Wyoming, where it is on permanent display next to the guns of other great exhibition shooters like Herb Parsons and Annie Oakley. Tom’s old Benelli wasn’t worn out, in fact it had never let Tom down. After Tom had presented his faithful Super 90 to the museum, he sat down to figure out just how many rounds he had fired through that gun. With over 100 live shows per year, the total number of rounds put through the Benelli was over half a million. Well, it’s a good thing Tom decided to retire that gun, because at that pace he might have worn it out… in another hundred years or so.
Team Benelli’s newest exhibition shooterTIM BRADLEYTIM BRADLEY
TIM BRADLEY learned to shoot at an early age. Growing
up on his family’s farm in northeast Arkansas he shot
almost everyday, devoting every spare minute to
hunting, trapping and shooting — often burning up
five or six cases of .22 ammunition each year. During
his high school years Bradley became interested in
boxing and the martial arts, earning his black belt in
karate by the age of 17.
Utilizing the discipline he learned from the martial
arts and his ability for mastering extreme challenges,
Bradley tackled the unique and difficult requirements
of becoming a world-class exhibition shooter. He honed
his gun handling skills through years of practice, and
by firing thousands upon thousands of rounds of ammo.
Bradley’s talents were recognized by none other than
Tom Knapp, Team Benelli USA’s World Record holding
exhibition shooter. Determination and dedication to
perfect specific shooting skills finally paid off for
Bradley, who was invited to join Team Benelli’s busy
shooting exhibition schedule, teaming up with Tom
Knapp in 2006 to thrill crowds of all ages all across
the country.
