Yep, 3 franchis to one SBE II. He had a trigger assembly disintegrate on an I-12. We never found all the parts, but a bunch had sheared into fragments. Then a bolt that cracked on his new infinity (I think that's what that model was called). He's now onto a new 3" affinity. I think his now 17 y/o son has claimed that gun and he told me had a line on a SBE I.

We burn a bunch of powder. My SBE II is probably near 7K duck loads in that time period. I sheared a shell extractor off the bolt around 4K loads. Benelli fixed it for free. Springs replaced year before last with wolff springs. Its ugly, but it goes BOOM, BOOM, BOOM every time.
