Description
The Benelli M4 Tactical is the semi-auto shotgun that earned a U.S. Marine Corps contract, and this version dresses it in a Flat Dark Earth finish over a black synthetic pistol grip stock. Its A.R.G.O. (Auto-Regulating Gas-Operated) system uses twin stainless pistons mounted just ahead of the chamber, so it cycles a wide mix of 2-3/4" and 3" loads, from light target shells to full-power buckshot and slugs, without any adjustment. The short-stroke design also runs cleaner than most gas guns.
Up top you get an adjustable ghost ring rear sight, a windage-adjustable front post, and an integral Picatinny rail for a red dot or other optic. The 18.5" barrel holds 5+1 rounds in the tube, and the fixed-length stock with a vertical pistol grip keeps the gun steady and fast to the shoulder. It is a serious home defense shotgun that is also at home in tactical and 3-gun style matches. Order online and pick it up at Brute Dynamics in Thousand Oaks, CA once your DROS clears.
