Save your money and stick with the 3" Vinci. 3 1/2" shells are overrated, and there are very few instances where they are needed. In addition, the 3 1/2" chambered guns are heavier.

Keep the Vinci. I'm not fond of any of Benelli's auto lineup but inertia is the way to go.

I liked my Benelli M2 when I had one. I'll buy one again.

Based on the used 3" ones I've seen just buy new. The discount is little to none even after the 3 1/2 came out. I go to tons of gun stores and Cabela's all the time at school and I've only seen a handful of used ones all over $1100.

I seen one used one in camo at Cableas, I'm holding out for a blued one. If you're right though I'll end up w a new one. Anything you don't like about it?

Nothing. I need to work with the adjustment shims but other than that I've had no issues with it. I wish I would have gone blue and walnut instead of camo though.

Good to know. They did a nice job on the finish on those guns.

Super Vinci. 3-1/2 are nice with steel shot cause it sucks. Depends on how/where you hunt too though.
