    I borrowed one from a dealer for opening day last year. Was really good.
    Appearance is definitely in the eye of the beholder, but once you get used to it it's quite nice.
    Feel and balance was good. Pointed and shot really well for me. Pretty soft shooter too I thought.
    I also really liked the unusual shape of the forend- found it gripped really well, even with the thick neoprene gloves on.

    Used it alongside my M2, which I usually won't part with. And I have to say I prefered the Vinci.

    Only complaint I have was with the feeding: I borrowed a "Super" Vinchi, and found it did not cycle the 2 & 3/4 shells 100% of the time. It was fine with 3" and 3.5" though. -May have just been that it was practically brand new and still a bit tight. I've spoken to a couple of other owners: They had the same issue, and chose to run a standard vinchi instead- problem solved. Interesting both these guys have serious a serious shotgun fetish- about $20k of shotties each, and both own other top of the range Benelli's, and also the equivlant berretas. They both said that they found themselves using nothing but the Vinchis.

    For my 2 cents I was impressed, and will be buying a standard Vinchi for this season.

    Cheers.
