benelli legacy 28

[sp-10]

does anyone have a benelli legacy 28? I was looking on the benelli site and this gun caught my eye. does anyone have one or has anyone handled one?

Yes handled one in store. It was very light and shouldered very well. if I had an extra 2K kicking around, I would like to add it to my Benelli stable!

I handled one at the local range, and it was light, actually a little too light in the muzzle for my tastes. Eli's had two of these guns on sale at a great discount this spring, but I just couldn't come up with a use for one, as I use my 28 gauges for skeet, upland and pheasant hunting, and I prefer an O/U for those uses.

Agree. Also found it very light in the muzzle. 2 grand was the biggest draw back however. I just could not see what it could do better for the cost than my Rem 1100 28ga sporting or my Franchi al48 which were 2 grand for both of them and have never given me any issues

Have not handled one,but have read quite a lot about them.They seem to be nice working shotguns.However I find the $2000 price tag a bit high. Especially when one can purchase a 28 gauge Franchi 48 AL,which is almost the same weight,but for half the price.Like 3macs said, I too find the price to be the biggest draw back.

I've put a few rounds through one and didn't like it. At a 5lbs. it is too light for me. Also it was burdened with the typical Benelli trigger pull which tends toward awful.
