Benelli this week unveiled a host of additions to the company's popular ETHOS and Super Black Eagle 3 shotgun lines as well as caliber expansions for its Lupo bolt-action rifles.
Set to make sportsmen happy in 2021, Benelli revealed a variety of 3-inch 12-gauges along with 3-inch 20-gauge Super Black Eagle shotguns. Their new, lightweight ETHOS Supersport will also boast 12-gauge, 20-gauge, and 28-gauge offerings. The Lupo series, meanwhile, will add new rifles in 6.5 Creedmoor, .308 Win., and .243 Win.

“For three decades, the Super Black Eagle platform has dominated the semi-auto waterfowl market as a 3.5-inch 12-gauge shotgun,” said Tim Joseph, vice president of brand marketing for Benelli USA. “We’ve applied all of the Super Black Eagle 3 enhanced updates and ergonomics to 3-inch 20-gauge and 3-inch 12-gauge models for 2021. We know the 20-gauge, in particular, will be a welcome addition for hunters who want the feature sets of an SBE3 but prefer a lighter gauge as well as for waterfowlers who are hunting areas that mandate the use of sub-gauge shotguns.”
