Post New shotgun
I used to shoot a Benelli m2 that was stolen a few months ago. I'm starting to shop around a little to replace it because I loved it so much. Any experience with a beretta xtreme unico a400? Or do you recommend the m2 again?

A400 here with no complaints other than the cost.

I love my 400 Extreme. Runs through low brass target loads in the summer like a champ. Awesome during hunting season too. Wouldn't have any other gun.

Getcha another M2! There ain't a better candidate out there. Don't let it be "the one that got away", sometimes the younger sister is the one... ;) Any distinguishing features on the old one? I'll brain the sorry SOB for ya...

I'd buy another M2 in a second if something ever happened to mine. I figure if I've had a gun for a decade and don't want another one...that it must be a keeper

I lost my original M1 in 99 on PAC. It took me 10 years and more than a few shotguns to realize that I needed a new one.Replace the M2!

Na there weren't any distinguishing features and the shitty part is I'm pretty sure the sheriffs arrested the kids and have my gun locked up I just can't find the bill of sale with the serial number. I probably will end up just getting a new m2, I loved that thing haha

i have an A400 extreme and love that gun. Expensive but i wouldnt give it up for anything. IMO you cant go wrong with Benelli or Beretta.

Yeah I've been in Kevin's a few times looking on the used gun rack for it but the guy I bought it from bought it at South Georgia. He finally found the bill of sale last night so I'm gonna take the serial number in to the sheriff today. If I don't get it back come dove season I'll be buying something from y'all.

A-400 by far! I think I have shot all the favorite Benelli guns as well as the common Beretta's and the 400 is by FAR the smoothest gun of all of them. Recoil reduction is incredible and mine will shoot the lightest target loads no problem. The same light loads a few months back on the sporting clays range jammed every time in my buddy's M2. They are a little more money but in my opinion, whish is typically not worth much, is that it was worth it

ive had two seasons with an a400 now with no problems you get what you pay for. it cycles anything great and wants more! ive found the more I shoot it the better it gets durability is very good too ive dropped it sevral times in the mud/water with zero malfunctions. my backup 870 supermag still comes along in the boat but the only use its gotton is from my buddies one has sbe2 and the other has some franchi junk.

Traded my M2 for the new A5 and haven't missed it once but I gotta give it to the Benelli it cycled every load I put in it just have to properly break it in and use extra light oil.

Both the a400 and the m2 are good guns. I have friends with both. But don't count out the a300. I've had mine for going on two years this teal season and I've had zero issues. It's a great gun for the price.

I have an m2 that I passed on to my wife to shoot. It's a good gun, never let me down and she really likes it to. It still isn't my extrema 2 though, I've been really pleased with it and once if wears out ill get whatever new gun beretta has out at the time.
