Default need advice on used benelli?

I found a used benelli super 90 m-1 12 gauge, it is in very good to excellent condition, i wanted to purchase a new one but the $1200 price tag is a little much. anyhow they are asking $800 for this gun, also i am left handed and don't want to spend the extra money for a left handed benelli either, but don't seem to have a problem shooting right handed pumps or semi's, i think that this gun is only a couple years old at the most by the camo design. what do you guys think on this shotgun. i would appreciate any advice yous have. thank's rick this is a right handed benelli!!

I have a M1-90 that is about five years old. I like the wieght and the handling of the gun. Since I have not found the need for 3.5 inch shells I have not felt any lack of power. My biggest complaint id htat the gun shoots low. I have the shim to keep my head as high as it can go, but it still shoots low. I have learned to keep my head up when gunning ducks and the uplands. For turkeys I have to put sights on to make sure I am on when shooting a tight choke.

I am probley a little behind the times here but I have shot a Benelli for alot of years and just bought a new SBEII last year. But that price seems high to me, I have traded in 3-4 SBE Benelli's in the past and my guns are well taken care of and they end up selling$700.00 - $800.00. Again maybe they have gone up in price but to me that price is high. JMO

Call a couple of your local benelli dealers, you can get a new M-1 for that price. In the fall Cabelas was selling the black SBE for under $900
