Product Description
The Benelli Super Black Eagle 3 A.I. BE.S.T. semi-automatic shotgun, featuring a 28" barrel and finished in GORE OPTIFADE Timber with Matte Grey Cerakote, is the ultimate evolution for serious waterfowl hunting. This "Advanced Impact" (A.I.) model represents a technological breakthrough in ballistic performance, pairing Benelli's legendary inertia system with a completely redesigned barrel and choke geometry. Its durable Matte Grey BE.S.T. Cerakote finish is engineered to withstand the harshest saltwater environments, setting the benchmark for modern semi-auto performance.
Advanced Impact (A.I.) System. The new A.I. barrel technology provides up to 50% more penetration on target. By optimising the internal bore profile, Benelli has increased pellet velocity and energy density, resulting in tighter, more uniform shot strings that stay effective at significantly longer distances.
BE.S.T. Protection. Benelli Surface Treatment (BE.S.T.) is a proprietary finishing technology that provides an impenetrable shield against rust and corrosion. This Matte Grey Cerakote finish is applied to the barrel, receiver, bolt, and even small internal components like the safety and trigger, backed by an industry-leading 25-year warranty against corrosion.
Inertia Driven Reliability. The heart of the Super Black Eagle 3 is the Inertia Driven system. Designed to be simple, clean, and incredibly fast, it never needs adjusting and will cycle everything from light 2-3/4" field loads to the most powerful 3-1/2" magnums with total consistency, year after year.
Maximum Comfort. Utilising the ComforTech 3 stock system, the Super Black Eagle 3 transforms the entire stock into a recoil pad through shock-absorbing chevrons. Combined with the Combtech cheek pad, this system drastically reduces felt recoil and facial vibration, allowing for faster and more comfortable follow-up shots.
GORE OPTIFADE Timber Finish. The stock and forearm are finished in GORE OPTIFADE Timber, a scientifically developed pattern designed to make the firearm vanish in flooded timber and dark marsh environments.
Easy Locking Bolt. The patented locking mechanism ensures the bolt always seats correctly, eliminating the "Benelli click" and ensuring the gun fires every time, regardless of how softly the bolt is closed.
