[QUOTE="Master Carper, post: 2843963, member: 15527"] I picked up a new Benelli ETHOS a couple of weeks ago, and finally got out today to run a few rounds through it... Thought I'd post a couple of pictures of my new Benelli, and keep a running tab on this particular gun, so I hope you don't mind the pictures and round count along the way...
