This Benelli Super Black Eagle 3 is the Mississippi Flyway 12-gauge, 3 1/2-inch, 28-inch-barrel configuration (item 12052). It is the same inertia-driven SBE3 platform used for heavy waterfowl work: Comfort Tech 3 stock, Combtech comb, Easy Loading magazine port, Easy Locking bolt, and oversized controls meant for gloves.

The 3 1/2-inch chamber is built to run 2 3/4-inch, 3-inch, and 3 1/2-inch shells, with Benelli’s usual 3-dram, 1 1/8-ounce minimum on 12-gauge magnum guns. A Crio-treated barrel and Crio choke set (flush and extended tubes on current 3.5-inch 12-gauge SBE3s) keep patterns consistent with steel and bismuth. Capacity is 3+1.

The Mississippi Flyway designation is a special-run identity rather than a separate action. Confirm wood, camo, Cerakote, and any flyway engraving on the gun in hand; those cosmetics are not published on Benelli’s current standard SKU chart. Right-hand SBE3 geometry is typically 14 3/8-inch LOP, about 49.6 inches overall, and about 7 pounds.
