It was for defense paddling. Interesting model as well, M2 tactical entry but with a 19.75" barrel. It was for a European contract that was cancelled and sold domestically. It took some digging with a Benelli rep to figure out what it was. I swapped out the polymer stock for Super Black Eagle 2 wood and installed the Nordic 4 round (7 shot, good eye) w/ "high speed" follower and barrel clamp. The barrel size made it impossible to get a flush mag extension but I actually don't mind the look.
