“Tag: 828U”

Benelli’s new 828U Sport over/under shotgun is based on the company’s revolutionary 828U platform with its patented, innovative steel locking plate and streamlined receiver. It features an integrated adjustment capability using a combination of small weights in the buttstock, allowing users to balance the shotgun to their preferred shooting style.

The 828U has been one of the year's hottest new releases, and that's a big part of the reason our friends at American Rifleman made it an NRA Gun of the Week.

Unless you’re one of those folks out there that’s a devout fan of the centerfire rifle (for all applications), you’ve probably noticed that Italians have a habit of making pretty nice shotguns. And I’m not just talking about the folks that have been at it for nearly five centuries. Benelli’s been at the scattergun game for just under 50 years —which still makes it something of a new kid on the block in this industry—but has more than made its mark on history.
