Benelli m2 comfortech stock – darelobazaar

Description

The Benelli M2 Comfortech Stock—often referred to in the marketplace as the Darelobazaar variant—brings a familiar level of reliability to the U.S. shooting community. For hunters who require a lightweight, fast-handling shotgun for upland birds or waterfowl, and for sport shooters who value reduced felt recoil during long sessions at the range, this 20-gauge semi-automatic offers a practical balance of features. Whether you are working a field in the Midwest or walking a course in the Northeast, this model is built to perform without unnecessary complexity.

What This Product Is and Who It Is For

This is a Benelli M2 semi-automatic shotgun chambered in 20-gauge, fitted with a 28-inch barrel and a black synthetic stock equipped with Benelli’s proprietary Comfortech system. It comes with a 3-round magazine capacity, making it compliant with many state hunting regulations while still offering sufficient firepower for clays or pest control. This shotgun is designed primarily for the hunter who needs a reliable, low-recoil platform for long walks in the field, and for the sport shooter who wants a consistent cycling action without excessive maintenance. It is not marketed as a dedicated home-defense or tactical weapon, but its light weight and manageable recoil make it a versatile choice for shooters who want one gun for multiple purposes. Collectors may also appreciate the Darelobazaar designation, which often indicates a specific import batch or distributor configuration.

Feature Deep-Dive

The most notable feature of this Benelli M2 is the Comfortech stock. Unlike traditional foam or gel recoil pads, the Comfortech system uses a series of chevron-shaped, flexible baffles built into the stock that compress and flex upon firing. This design reduces felt recoil by spreading the impulse over a longer duration, which is particularly beneficial in a light 20-gauge platform. For a shooter spending a full day in the field or running several boxes of shells at a sporting clays range, the reduction in shoulder fatigue is measurable. The stock is also shim-adjustable for drop and cast, allowing the shooter to fine-tune fit without purchasing aftermarket hardware.

The inertia-driven operating system is another key advantage. Unlike gas-operated shotguns, the M2 relies on the kinetic energy of the fired shell to cycle the action. This means fewer moving parts, less fouling buildup, and minimal need for cleaning in dusty or wet conditions. For hunters working in muddy marshes or dry grain fields, this system reduces the risk of malfunctions caused by debris. It also allows the gun to cycle a wider range of 20-gauge loads, from light target loads to heavier 3-inch magnums, without requiring gas port adjustments.

The 28-inch barrel with Benelli’s Crio choke system provides consistent patterns and tight shot strings. The Crio process cryogenically treats the barrel steel to relieve stress, which improves uniformity and reduces shot deformation. For a hunter taking shots at 30 to 40 yards on pheasants or doves, this translates to more reliable kills with fewer cripples. The barrel also features a ventilated rib with a red bar front sight, which aids in quick target acquisition when swinging on moving game.

The receiver is machined from a lightweight aluminum alloy, keeping the overall weight under 6.2 pounds. This makes the M2 a strong candidate for hunters who cover significant ground on foot. The black anodized finish resists corrosion and scratches, though it is not a full camouflage pattern—so if you require a matte or camo finish for waterfowl hunting, you may need to consider aftermarket cerakote or a different model. The synthetic stock is also weather-resistant, with no wood to swell or crack in humid conditions.

Magazine capacity is limited to 3 rounds from the factory, which is standard for many hunting jurisdictions. The magazine tube can be modified or replaced for increased capacity, but doing so may affect compliance with local laws. The bolt release and safety are ambidextrous-friendly, though the safety is located at the rear of the trigger guard and is equally accessible to right- and left-handed shooters. The bolt handle is oversized for easy manipulation with gloves, a thoughtful detail for cold-weather hunts.

Ideal Use Cases

This shotgun is best suited for upland bird hunting (pheasant, quail, grouse), waterfowl hunting with non-toxic shot (when fitted with appropriate chokes), and recreational sporting clays or trap shooting. The 20-gauge chambering and 3-round capacity make it a natural fit for walk-up hunting styles where mobility and quick shouldering matter more than raw firepower. It is not designed for home defense due to the longer barrel and limited capacity, though it could serve in that role in a rural setting. For concealed carry or tactical applications, a shorter-barreled model would be more appropriate. Competition shooters in disciplines like 3-gun may find the 28-inch barrel and 3-round capacity restrictive, but for traditional clay games, it performs well.

Compatibility Notes

This Benelli M2 accepts standard 20-gauge 2.75-inch and 3-inch shells. It will cycle reliably with most field loads (1-ounce to 1.25-ounce) and high-brass hunting loads. Light target loads (7/8-ounce or less) may not generate enough inertia to cycle consistently, particularly in cold weather—test a few boxes before relying on them for competition. The Crio choke system uses Benelli-specific choke tubes; aftermarket chokes from Carlson’s or Briley are available if you need extended or specialized constrictions. The stock accepts standard Benelli M2 recoil pads and shim kits. Holsters are not applicable for this long gun; however, soft cases and hard cases for shotguns up to 50 inches will fit. Magazines are not interchangeable with other Benelli models; the M2 uses a proprietary magazine tube and follower. For optics mounting, the receiver is not drilled and tapped, but aftermarket saddle mounts or rail systems are available for red dot sights if needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can you ship this shotgun directly to my home address?
A: No. Federal law requires that all firearms shipped from a licensed FFL dealer must be transferred to another FFL dealer in your state. We will ship this Benelli M2 to the FFL dealer you provide during checkout. You will then complete the ATF Form 4473 and a background check at that dealer before taking possession. Please confirm with your receiving FFL that they accept transfers from out-of-state dealers.

Q: What is the FFL transfer process for this firearm?
A: After you place your order, we will require a copy of the receiving FFL’s license (sent via email or fax). Once we verify the license, we ship the shotgun via a carrier that complies with firearm shipping regulations. You will receive a tracking number. When the firearm arrives at your chosen FFL, they will contact you to schedule the transfer. Transfer fees are set by the receiving dealer and are not included in our price.

Q: What ammunition is compatible with this Benelli M2?
A: This shotgun is designed for 20-gauge shells with a case length of 2.75 inches or 3 inches. It will function with lead shot, steel shot (with appropriate choke), and bismuth or tungsten loads. It is not rated for 3.5-inch shells. For best reliability, use shells with a minimum velocity of approximately 1200 fps for target loads. Avoid using reloaded or subsonic ammunition, as it may not cycle the inertia system reliably.

Q: Does this shotgun come with a manufacturer’s warranty?
A: Yes. Benelli USA provides a limited lifetime warranty to the original owner for defects in materials and workmanship. This warranty does not cover normal wear, misuse, or modifications. We recommend registering your firearm with Benelli USA within 30 days of purchase to activate the warranty. If you have specific warranty questions, contact Benelli USA directly or reach out to our customer service team for guidance.

Q: What is your return policy for firearms?
A: Due to federal regulations and safety concerns, we do not accept returns on firearms that have been transferred to an FFL or shipped from our inventory. All firearm sales are final. If your shotgun arrives with a manufacturer defect or damage from shipping, we will work with you and Benelli USA to resolve the issue. Please inspect the firearm at your FFL before accepting the transfer—any visible damage should be noted on the transfer form and reported to us within 48 hours.
