BENELLI M2 SP Comfortech shotgun cal. 12/76 26''

TheBenelli M2 SP Comfortech 12/76 is a self-repeating rifle with the Inertia Driven System, widely regarded as one of the best standard class sporting rifles.

Shotgun for dynamic

The Benelli M2 SP Comfortech 12/76 is a sporting shotgun with the Inertia Driven System of mechanics, which is distinguished by its high ergonomics, reliability and lightweight design for comfort and speed on the range. The M2 model features the proven Inertia Driven System mechanism and two new technologies to enhance ergonomics and comfort: AirTouch and ComfortTech. AirTouch is the way the grip and bed are finished. The characteristic porous texture increases grip, improves the grip and makes it easier to operate the weapon, which of course translates into comfort and the speed of folding for a shot. The second solution implemented is the ComforTech system, which is responsible for reducing the perceived recoil. This effect has been achieved by applying chevron-shaped elastomeric panels to the butt, which, together with the footplate, largely cushion the recoil energy transmitted to the shooter's arm. According to the manufacturer, the system reduces recoil sensation by 47%, weapon toss by 32% and reduces the time it takes to fire a second shot by up to 34%.

Inertia Driven System

The Inertia Driven System consists of several parts, which, thanks to its clever design, allows shooting ammunition with a smaller weight. This mechanism dispenses with the gas system, which not only increases the weight of the weapon, but is also more prone to fouling and jamming. In the inertial system, much less fouling from powder combustion enters the breech chamber during firing. It also has the advantage of automatically adjusting the breech opening time depending on the cartridge weight. All this contributes to the smooth and reliable operation of the rifle, which is why it is so widely and willingly chosen by sports shooters. The mechanics of the weapon is based on the recoil energy created during firing. The main element of the mechanics is the spring mechanism (recoil system), which prevents the breech from being disengaged during firing. After firing, the spring initiates the unlocking and pushes the breech back into the rear position.

Ergonomics

The shotgun is fed from an aluminum magazine with a capacity of 9 rounds. Stability and adequate rigidity of the connection to the barrel is provided by a metal buckle. The shotgun has an enlarged reloading lever and breech drop. The charging port has also been enlarged and widened, making it possible to load twin or quad loads (2 or 4 cartridges) without gunsmithing adjustments, which dynamic shooters usually undertake on their own after purchasing the weapon. For aiming, there is a long fiber-optic musket, which catches the light perfectly, and a folding stock, useful when shooting slug ammunition. The sporting rifle, of course, could not lack interchangeable foreheads (Crio standard), which allow shooting at targets at different distances.
