Scope mounts for Benelli M3

General description:

Benelli Armi S.p.A. was formed in 1967 from a motorcycle business. Benelli brothers were passionate hunters as well as fine engineers – with the help of Bruno Civolani, they developed an extraordinary hunting shotgun that used a simple inertia driven mechanism in place of a conventional gas-operated system. Today, they are best known for producing shotguns for law enforcement, military and civilians. Benelli M3 12 gauge, used by American SWAT teams, is perhaps their most famous firearm.

Physical properties and dimensions:

Benelli M3, which is an updated version of M1, was first introduced in 1989. It is a pump-action semi-automatic shotgun – the user can switch between pump-action and semi-automatic operation. The dial, used to switch from one mode to another, is located in front of the front grip, close to the carrying sling swivel. It is equipped with a 76 mm (3 in.) chamber. Weight of the rifle is 3.3 kg. M3 uses the same recoil-driven system as M1 – it repeats by means of the recoil from a previously fired shot. There are two slug versions on the market. The round capacity is either 7+1 (military version) or 5+1 (civilian version). Benelli M3 has no holes drilled for the purpose of mounting options. Most frequently users mount Red Dot Sights on Picatinny Rails with Benelli M3

Mounting bases:

Picatinny rails:

The Picatinny rail is on a good way of becoming a global standard for mounting since it was invented in 1995. Developed on the Weaver template, the biggest advantage of the Picatinny rail is the usage across its entire length, unlike Weaver which has predesignated slots for mounting, limiting its usability and versatility. Ease of use and interchangeability are also its assets. Picatinny has slots evenly placed, namely exactly 5.23 mm one from the other and 3 mm deep. Because of this, the mounting is identical on all firearms using the Picatinny standard. Picatinny rail can accommodate all types of mounts, also those designed for Weaver standard.
