Whilst I admire the Model 12, I've never shot one well enough to keep it.

Cleanup after a rainy day or a dunking or whatever is where a plastic stock Benelli really shines.

Gun is in pieces in seconds with no tools, except for a buttstock pull and that's about a minute of effort with the correct metric socket and an extension. Oil and airhose out the action spring and tube, the magazine tube and spring, reassemble the receiver to the stock, and presto. Plus, the job can wait until after dinner and a cocktail.

I enjoy doubleguns, but nice days only please!

Good story Fox.
