I bought mine last year and have put around 6000 rounds through it from light 1oz target loads to heavy 3.5 magnum steel loads. Slugs and buckshot too. 0 malfunctions at all. Love the gun and am happy i spent the extra money on it. The gas system is basically self cleaning and very reliable, no stupid seals to worry about. stock is adjustable , comes with all the choketubes most will ever use. Not that its expensive but it comes with quick disconnect sling mount. For me it was a decision between the sbe2 and xtrema2 i went with the beretta because it fit me better. Also t is very easy to breakdown and clean.
