Benelli Super Vinci magnum shotgun review

Benelli Super Vinci magnum.
It is little more than a century since the first successful semi-automatic shotgun came on to the market.

For years they were slow to catch on in the UK. In both recoil and gas-operated designs, it seemed they were just not for us.

Often dismissed as unsporting, what really concerned a lot of shooters, even for a knockabout gun, was their apparent complexity.

It was more like an automatic machine, feeding and cycling cartridges with a strange mechanism clattering away in the dark recesses of the receiver.

If comparatively simple and well-tried semi-autos caused confusion, what on earth would those old gunsmiths now think of the Benelli Super Vinci?
