It's a want and not a need for sure, but if you want a Benelli SBE3 28 gauge with a 24" barrel you should make the move now. The MSRP was $1899 until very recently. It's now $2149. Usually there is a little wiggle room on price and a number of places offer military, veterans and first responder discounts.
I don't know if Benelli is factoring in tariffs or what, but if anyone wants a Benelli, Beretta or Franchi--all from Italy, now may be the time to find one that's already in inventory.
Again, it's absolutely not necessary, but thought I'd pass it on to whomever might be contemplating a buy.

I will also add the place I got mine was hoping they would do another run of these before fall but that may not happen. That's why they are pretty scarce. He was only allowed 5 on his first order ..

Yep. I got the last one from where I eventually bought mine and the other places I checked distant from me were both down to their last one as well.
