Does anyone have any info on this shotgun?

Cabelas has it listed on their site, but there isn't much other detail.

Basically no English language sources. I can only find info on it through various European sites in different languages. Same for youtube videos. It doesn't seem to be all that new in the international market. I have managed to gather that it is made/assembled in Spain, but also has some Italian parts in it as well.

It looks interesting. Has a split receiver like some of the more expensive Benelli's, but at a lower price point.
If anyone here has handled the firearm or shot one, please share any info or experiances. It would be appreciated, thanks.
 
So, more news.

I went in to Cabelas and asked about the shotgun. Guy at the counter said they didn't have them and they pulled it weeks ago. I said I knew, but that the listing went back up again and the website says they have them. He looked them up in the system and sure enough they were listed in stock at that store. He has no idea where they are. His manager comes and says the listing shouldn't be up. He says they're locked up in the back in a special cabinet and he isn't allowed to display, show, or sell them.

Apparently they pulled them from sale due to 'safety concerns'. I got no extra details from them on what that actually means. I don't think they knew, just what corporate told them.

All very odd.
As of right now, it's still listed for sale on their website.
 
Sounds like the only Benelli/Beretta Italian part on this gun is the barrel. The rest is made in Spain, same gun is labeled both as Benelli and Beretta. Kind of odd having an inertia operated Beretta. One of the Beretta versions has a very nice bronze finish, very nice looking gun, don’t know how good they are. I have not found much for reviews on them.
