Benelli M2-G1 Tactical Semi-Auto Shotgun 11610, 12GA 18.5in, Fixed Stock, 5+1, Black with Anodized Gray Receiver

Benelli M2-G1 Tactical Shotgun, Fixed Stock, 5+1, Item 11610

The Benelli 11610 is the 5+1 model of the M2-G1, Benelli's 2026 gas-operated tactical shotgun line. It runs the same platform as every other M2-G1: the new RPO gas action, an 18.5 inch barrel, ghost ring sights with Picatinny rail, an M-Lok forend, and enlarged controls, carried in a fixed synthetic stock with a standard grip. What sets it apart is the standard-length magazine tube. Five rounds in the tube, one in the chamber, which makes the 11610 the model built for jurisdictions and applications that cap shotgun capacity, and at 7.4 pounds, the lightest M2-G1 in the line. It shares the line's lowest MSRP, $1,949, with the 7+1 model 11611. Botach sells the 11610 below MSRP.

Key Features

• 5+1 capacity from a standard-length magazine tube. The configuration for capacity-limited jurisdictions, and the only M2-G1 without the extended tube.
• Fixed synthetic stock, 13 inch length of pull, standard grip. No pistol grip, no telescoping mechanism. Combined with the 5+1 tube, this is the most restriction-resistant configuration in the line.
• Lightest M2-G1 at 7.4 pounds average, and 38.5 inches overall.
• RPO gas system. The first gas-operated M2. Dual short-stroke pistons at the chamber, recoil assembly sealed inside the stock away from carbon and debris.
• Ghost ring sights with Picatinny rail, receiver drilled and tapped for optics.
• M-Lok forend for lights and accessories.
• Enlarged controls, beveled loading port, ramped trigger guard for speed with gloves or under stress.
• QD sling mounting positions built in.
• Parkerized bolt, Modified choke installed, 10-year limited warranty.

Same Engine, Simplest Configuration

Nothing about the 11610's action is reduced. It carries the full Rear Piston Operated system that defines the M2-G1: gas tapped at the chamber by two short-stroke pistons, the recoil assembly housed in the stock where fouling never reaches, cleanings spaced further apart, teardown kept simple. The M4 and its ARGO system remain Benelli's military benchmark. The M2-G1 is the cleaner-running tactical line beside it, and the 11610 is its most straightforward expression: fixed stock, standard tube, nothing to adjust.

Specifications

Benelli 11610 vs the Other M2-G1 Models

Straight talk on the 11611: same shotgun, same $1,949 MSRP, but with the extended 7+1 tube. If capacity is unrestricted where you live, the 11611 gives you two more rounds for the same money. Choose the 11610 when your jurisdiction or application caps capacity, or when you want the lightest gun in the line. The 11612, 11617 FDE, and 11622 MultiCam step up to the 5-position telescoping pistol grip stock with 7+1. All five are compared on our Benelli M2-G1 category page.

Shipping, FFL Transfer, and State Law

Botach ships in-stock firearms fast from our Las Vegas warehouse to your local FFL dealer for transfer. The 11610 pairs a fixed stock and standard grip with the line's lowest capacity, which makes it the configuration least likely to trip state feature or capacity restrictions. Laws still vary and change, so verify your state and local rules before ordering, or contact us and we will help you confirm. Botach has supplied law enforcement, military, and government agencies for over 35 years; departments can request unit pricing.

What is the difference between the Benelli 11610 and 11611?

The magazine tube. The 11610 holds 5+1 with a standard tube. The 11611 holds 7+1 with the extended tube. Stock, finish, barrel, weight class, and $1,949 MSRP are otherwise the same shotgun.

Who should buy the 5+1 Benelli 11610?

Three buyers. Anyone in a jurisdiction that caps shotgun capacity. Anyone whose department, range, or competition rules require a standard tube. And anyone who wants the lightest, simplest M2-G1 at 7.4 pounds. Everyone else gets more gun for the same MSRP in the 11611.

Is the Benelli 11610 the lightest M2-G1?

Yes. At an average 7.4 pounds it is the lightest model in the line, two tenths of a pound under the 11611 and roughly half a pound under the telescoping stock models. It ties the 11611 for shortest at 38.5 inches overall.
