Shotgun identification?

[KMA-367]

Hello, does anyone happen to know what model shotgun this is and what kind of lighted forend it is using? Thank you.

I am guessing it is a defensive/offensive weapon. It appears to be an SBS (short barrel shotgun) which would need registered. The TFL NFA section will help with the legal end.

Benelli M3 with a Surefire forend?

Benelli M3 with a Surefire forend?

I thought so, but I don't recall Surefire making a dedicated forend for the M3.

So, after searching around, it seems to be an M1 entry model with Surefire forend. If not, let me know.

Greetings KMA-367, and welcome aboard.
May we assume from the old call sign that you're LAPD, Ret.?

Not retired yet. Still going strong.

IMO it's a Benelli Entry gun, with a tricked-out forend.

Most likely an M1, ILO this M4

.

Yep, its 99% Benelli.

And i conclude that is used by Swat or Police.

This is the entry model of M1.

Is obvious that they changed the forend to have a build in torch.

A bit OT, but I haven't gotten any response to my former post, so my question is:

Is it normal for the Benelli M3 breech to open partially when being fired in the pump mode? It's contrary to every other pump shotgun I've ever fired and it's a bit unnerving.

Thanks for your help.
