After 10 years in development and with insight from their staff of experienced hunters, Benelli redesigned their renowned Super Black Eagle platform from the ground up to create the Super Black Eagle 3. The Super Black Eagle 3 features upgrades in three major areas: better ergonomics, enhanced reliability, and a more modernized design.

In terms of ergonomics and overall handling, the Super Black Eagle 3 is outfitted with a wide array of user-friendly features. These features include a beveled loading port, a redesigned carrier, and a two-piece carrier latch. This allows the user to load shells into the port without having to take your eyes off of incoming birds, and the two-piece carrier latch actually moves during the loading process with minimal tension to reduce the possibility of jamming. The bolt handle and safety have also been enlarged. These features come together to make loading and operating the Super Black Eagle 3 easy even when wearing gloves. The Super Black Eagle 3 also features the Benelli BE.S.T. – a proprietary finishing technology that protect the steel parts with a tough impenetrable armor coating. One of the Super Black Eagle 3’s more notable aspects is Benelli’s exclusive Comfort Tech 3 recoil reduction system, which utilizes a series of shock-absorbing chevrons to greatly mitigate felt recoil.

In addition to its optimized handling and ergonomics, the Super Black Eagle 3 operates via the Inertia-Driven System, a hallmark of Benelli shotguns’ strength and reliability. Because it functions on inertia rather than gas, the Super Black Eagle 3 operates more cleanly and reliably, and can cycle a wide range of shells from light field loads to the heavy hitters.
