Overview
Built for tactical use, this 12-gauge semi-auto pairs Benelli’s A.R.G.O. system with a fixed-position skeletonized stock and pistol grip for a purposeful, no-frills setup. The 18.5-inch barrel, ghost-ring sight, and fixed modified choke make it suited to close- to mid-range work where fast handling and straightforward aiming matter. It is chambered for 2-3/4" and 3" shells and carries a 5+1 magazine capacity, giving it a practical balance of capacity and compactness. At 40 inches overall with an 8-pound weight, it is a substantial shotgun that favors stability over portability.
