The Benelli M3 is an Italian combat shotgun made by Benelli Armi, designed in the 1980s and in production and service since 1989. It is a dual mode shotgun, meaning it can be switched between manual pump action, useful for lower powered rounds such as rubber bullets, and semi automatic operation for full power combat loads, using an inertia driven action. Its stock can be configured in different ways for different tactical roles.
