Benelli M2 and Montefeltro Upgrades
Benelli has implemented some updates to its scatter guns in 2023. To start us off, the Montefeltro and M2 now come with a 2-piece shell latch that makes loading shells into the magazine tube easier.
Also, the tried and true Inertia-Driven System of these shotguns now comes complementary with the new Easy Locking Bolt System that will reliably cycle the lightest of shotshell loads.
The last update to these guns was in 2004, so these are a welcome change to these proven shotguns.

There are subtle differences between the M2 and Montefeltro that place the M2 in the waterfowl niche while the Montefeltro is known more as an upland shotgun.
Since the M2 is more of a waterfowl gun, you will also find new camo patterns for 2023 that help you blend in, including the OPTIFADE Waterfowl Timber, Realtree Max-7, Mossy Oak Bottomlands, and the original synthetic black color.
The new upgrade to the M2 also includes a tweaked buttstock design featuring an extended AirTouch surface behind the trigger, aiding in grip with gloved hands in wet conditions.
Prices:
- Montefeltro $1,499.00
- M2 W/ Camo $1,499.00
- M2 black synthetic $1,399.00
Benelli Lupo Rifle Upgrades
Benelli’s BE.S.T. Lupo Bolt Action Rifle is the same as the original Lupo rifle but features Benelli’s exclusive industry-leading BE.S.T. surface treatment and comes in other rifle stock colors and material options.
This surface treatment is a hybrid PVD method and is guaranteed corrosion-resistant for 25 years.
A new AA-Grade satin walnut stock is now available for the .308 Winchester and .30-06 Springfield. This classic look is well-loved, according to Benelli, and they wanted to offer these new calibers in this classic style.
Don’t be fooled though, the BE.S.T. Lupo Bolt-Action Rifle still comes with its aluminum bedding block, cryo-treated barrel, and adjustability that makes its performance so legendary. Price on this new offering will be $2,199.00 and it is available for purchase now.
