SBE3 New Colors (2)

Benelli USA has added several color options to its Benelli Super Black Eagle 3 lineup, including new Cerakote and camo combinations for their 28-inch barrel shotguns with 12- and 20-gauge three-inch chambers.

For hunting flooded timber, the new Tungsten/Gore Optifade Waterfowl Timber combination blends the muted hue of the barrel and receiver's Tungsten Cerakote with Gore Optifade Waterfowl Timber camouflage on the stock and forend. When the action turns to grassy swamps, the Patriot Brown Cerakote and Gore Optifade Marsh pattern are the perfect combinations. Overall, this dual-color treatment provides hunters with a firearm that elevates the barrel and receiver's clean lines and metal finish while complementing the camouflage furniture.

Underneath the Cerakotes and finishes, these SBE3s are the same shotguns that have endeared themselves to shooters around the world. The proven Inertia Driven System, recoil-absorbing Comfort Tech 3 stock, drop and cast shim kit, shock-absorbing Comb-Tech cheek pad, Crio-treated barrels, and chokes all combine to create a shotgun that is easy to point and keep on target throughout follow-up shots. More importantly, the SBE 3 is the preferred choice of discerning waterfowlers for the most significant reason of all—unflinching, reliable performance in the most demanding hunting conditions on Earth.
