Black Eagle is the semi-automatic with 76 Magnum chamber derived from the bestseller SBE 3, from which it takes its unmistakable look. A trusted gun which can be used in any hunting environment. Designed around the 76 chamber, it is synonymous with extreme reliability. Black Eagle is equipped with the best absorption and comfort systems, such as the ComforTech 3 system which works in conjunction with the innovative Combtech comb, guaranteeing total comfort for the user. Loading and unloading are made even easier by the Easy Loading system, while the gun is always ready to fire thanks to the innovative Easy Locking bolt lock. The barrels are equipped with high-visibility sights and Knurled chokes, which ensure compact and uniform patterns.
Inertia-Driven System
The hallmark of Benelli strength and reliability, our clean-burning Inertia Driven System never requires adjusting, cycles consistently in conditions that border on the unfair and easily handles everything from light field loads to 3″ magnums. From a cleanliness and speed perspective, gas systems simply cannot compete—whereas Inertia-Driven Benelli shotguns are known to fire 500,000+ rounds and still function without flaw.
A larger bolt release and safety, along with an outward angled drop lever make the Black Eagle quicker and easier to operate–even with gloved hands.
Cryogenic physics has revealed steel changes at the molecular level when cooled to -300° F. When a Benelli barrel is cryogenically treated, all the stresses caused by hammer forging are relieved and the surface of the bore becomes more even-grained. The result is a slicker surface offering less resistance to wads and shot charges. With smoother, more uniform surfaces, Benelli Crio® barrels deliver superior patterns and stay clean longer.
Versatility without compromise: having a shotgun with a 3½“ chamber does not mean you always have to shoot the powerful stuff. The SBE 3’s patented locking mechanism is designed to work flawlessly with all shotgun loads—from light clay loads to the ultimate goose-busters.
A beveled loading port, redesigned carrier and a new two-piece carrier latch have all been incorporated into the new Super Black Eagle 3 to make loading the magazine effortless.
During loading, only the front section of the Easy Loading System’s two-piece carrier latch actually moves, allowing shells to slide up easily with minimal tension or possibility of jamming.
Grooves in the loading port help you guide shells in without having to take your eyes off incoming birds. The new, beveled loading port also features a wider design to help funnel shells toward the magazine, a must for gloved hunters.
