TFL Review Summary

This is one of the most popular Waterfowl guns on the market. Benelli has become the pinnacle of status. All that aside, the SBE3 is a solid and reliable shotgun. If you are looking for a soft recoiling shotgun, you won't find it with the SBE3, but if that doesn't matter to you, the SBE3 has great ergonimics, is extremely easy to breakdown, and it cycles a wide variety of shells reliably.
