I don't think you can beat an SX3, right down to the trigger group.  I also have a belgum Light 12 ga, It is easy also, the only thing is you cannot take the trigger group out without doing a lot of disassembly, which is not recommended by browning.

Browning Maxus. Easiest I have seen by far.

I don't have any experience with any other than my beneli vinci but it would be hard for me to imagine anything easier or quicker.

not a Stoeger3500........I literally knocked myself out cleaning mine the first time.  I'd removed the barrel and was taking the bolt and trigger group out.  that involves removing the bolt handle.  there is no trick to it, just pull like hell.  well after trying unsuccessfully for 15 minutes, I got a pair of pliers.  I put a rag over the handle to keep the pliers from scratching it.  laid the gun on the table and stood over it (that part is key), gripping the pliers in my fist.  I pulled up as hard as I could and finally the bolt handle came loose all at once.  this sent my fist directly upward, straight into my nose.

my next recollection is laying on the floor, looking up at the ceiling, with my wife kneeling beside me looking worried, but at the same time laughing.  she said she saw the whole thing.  said I was out cold before I ever hit the floor, and was out for a few seconds.  I haven't removed the bolt handle on that gun since.

Haha that's pretty funny there Gomer. My beretta xtrema is super fast and easy. I can break it down with trigger group removed and put it back together in less than 5 mins no problem

Benelli, plus it isn't really dirty  due to the inertia drive.

That's the big bonus.. All the crap goes out the barrel. Not into the forearm..

Ithaca Featherlight semi gas assist auto is the most simplistic, least amount of parts of any shotgun I have ever seen. The only drawback is all the parts are made strong as a gorilla so the gun is not a featherlight it is one of the heaviest I have ever carried.

All are pretty simple. I can strip my Benelli completely down in a couple of minutes. I'm talking taking the trigger group completely apart and safety. Carrier latch roll pin can be a bugger tho. Beretta is pretty fast to strip as well

Sbe is about the simplest gun to take apart , I imagine the Vinci is about the same

My versamax is real quick to take down too , but not as quick as a sbe
