Benelli's new Vinci features an inertia-driven operating system that is now all contained in the receiver. The semi-auto's three modular components; the shim-adjustable buttstock, fore-end/magazine/trigger and barrel/receiver snap together, then apart for easy maintenance.

Shooting all 2 3/4- and 3-inch shells, the versatile 6.9-pound Vinci uses Benelli's ComforTech-Plus stock to significantly absorb recoil, and the Crio-System barrel and choke tubes ensure good patterns. Its rifle-style trigger is smooth and breaks cleanly. The Vinci is available in Max-4D and Realtree AP camo and all-black.
