Buy recommendations Federation sa-2

Post image

Anyone have any experience with the federation sa-2? I recently purchased one and can’t find anything online at all. I know it is made as a benelli m2 clone and that’s basically all i can find. I put 3 boxes of shells through it so far and it cycled and ejected flawlessly. I did find that the recoil is a bit more than i expected but i guess for a cheap, lightweight inertia gun i shouldnt expect anything different. Looking for others opinions on long term reliability? Thanks

Well i spent two weeks googling every semi auto shotgun available to me at my local dealers trying to make a decision, came across this one and can find nothing about it period as its a newer model where the patent just ran out on the m2 recently. I don’t have the money to dish out $1600+ for a semi auto, the cheapest option i could find other than this was the stoeger m3500 for 1399.99 plus tax. I know i could order online from cabelas but i’d rather purchase in person.

I didn’t say I only started googling it after purchase. I spent a long time trying to find out what i could but never found much or anything only on other federation models so for half the price of any other semi on the market i decided to get it and find out for myself.
