Benelli M4 Tactical
Benelli's gas-operated tactical semi-auto — one of the most expensive shotguns on this list.
Who it's for
- Premium: about $2,299 list price from the maker.
- Semi-auto: the action loads the next shell for you, so there's no pump stroke to fumble under stress. Pick ammo it's known to cycle reliably.
- Adjustable stock length — easier to fit shorter shooters, longer arms, or body armor and winter coats.
- Heavier at 7.8 lb — more to carry, but extra weight soaks up recoil.
