About the Benelli 828U
The Benelli 828U is a premium over/under shotgun that redefined the category with its innovative steel locking system and lightweight aluminum receiver. Unlike traditional O/U designs, the 828U's patented locking plate contains firing pressure within the barrel, eliminating wear on the receiver and hinge pins. This results in a stronger, lighter shotgun weighing less than 6.5 pounds, perfectly balanced for upland hunting and sporting clays.
The 828U was Benelli's first-ever over/under shotgun, representing decades of engineering innovation applied to a classic platform.
