The M3's convertible system uses a knurled selector ring ahead of the fore-end to switch between inertia-driven semi-auto and manual pump modes. The bolt is marked "Benelli Armi System," underscoring the design lineage of Benelli's reliable operation.
The 18.5 in barrel pairs with a 6+1 tubular magazine and a 3 in chamber, offering a compact tactical profile. The magazine tube terminates short of the muzzle, maintaining the classic M3 Tactical silhouette.
Construction is centered on a matte black aluminum alloy receiver with a fixed polymer stock and pistol grip, plus a ribbed polymer fore-end for positive purchase. A Benelli-logo rubber buttpad and a 14.0 in length of pull complete the handling package. A cross-bolt safety provides straightforward control.
Sighting provisions include a protected front post. The installed B-Square receiver-mounted rail adds mounting real estate on top of the receiver. Italian PSF proof marks are present, reflecting its Italian manufacture and factory proofing.
