I often hear and read comments regarding the sharp recoil when firing the Benelli M1 S90. Most folks think this is due to the light weight of the Benelli as compared to an
870 or 590. Check the specs. The M1 S90 weighs about 6.7 to 7 pounds compared to 7 1/4 pounds for the 870HD or 6.75 for the Mossberg 590. I don't see a significant difference in the weights.
Could it be that the Benelli's action is what causes the sharp recoil? I have fired all three shotguns and I find the Benelli somewhat unpleasant.
Of course, this is just my opinion and we all know what that's worth.
