Description
The Benelli Super Black Eagle II Left Hand 12ga 26 APG HD Camo ComforTech Stock is a purpose-built, left-handed inertia-driven semi-auto shotgun. It’s designed for southpaw hunters who demand reliability in tough conditions, featuring a 26″ barrel, Advanced Performance Grade camo, and Benelli’s recoil-reducing ComforTech stock system. I’ve put hundreds of rounds through this platform in blinds and fields, and its performance for lefties is the real deal.
Key Features
- True Left-Handed Design: Ejection port and safety are configured for left-handed shooters, making operation intuitive and keeping spent shells out of your sightline.
- ComforTech Stock: This isn’t just a pad—it’s a system of chevron-shaped gel inserts and flex-tech panels that genuinely soak up the punch of 3.5″ magnums.
- Inertia Driven System: Benelli’s famous action is simple, runs clean, and cycles everything from light target loads to heavy 3.5″ waterfowl shells without adjustment.
- APG HD Camo Finish: The Advanced Performance Grade Hydro-Dip camo is durable and provides excellent concealment in a variety of timber and marsh environments.
- Crio-Choked Barrel: Comes with a set of Benelli’s cryogenically treated choke tubes (IC, M, F) for patterning versatility.

Look, lefties have been adapting to right-handed guns forever, but that ends here. This SBE II is built from the ground up for you. The 26″ barrel offers a great balance for swinging on ducks in timber or geese over decoys, and the whole package comes in at a manageable 7.3 pounds for long carries. At $1640.85, it’s an investment in a tool that finally fits you correctly, and it’s available at firearms-missouri.com for Missouri residents and nationwide. The inertia system is famously low-maintenance—a quick wipe-down after a muddy day is often all it needs. It’s also compatible with a huge range of aftermarket chokes from brands like Carlson’s and Patternmaster, so you can fine-tune your spread for any game.
Who This Shotgun Is For
This is for the serious left-handed waterfowler or turkey hunter. If you spend seasons in a layout blind or a soggy timber hole, this is your workhorse. It’s also a fantastic choice for lefties who shoot high-volume clays or pursue upland birds where reliability across different shell types is non-negotiable. The price point puts it in the dedicated hunter’s category, not the casual once-a-year shooter.
Pros & Cons
Pros: The true left-handed configuration is a game-changer for safety manipulation and ejection. The ComforTech system makes shooting 3.5″ shells manageable over a long hunt. Benelli’s inertia drive is arguably the most reliable semi-auto action in the world—it just runs. The camo finish is tough and well-applied. It fits out of the box with no gunsmithing required for the average shooter.
Cons: The premium price tag is the main barrier. Some shooters find the ComforTech stock a bit bulky compared to a traditional stock, though the trade-off in recoil reduction is worth it. The 26″ barrel, while versatile, might feel short for some pass-shooting purists who prefer a 28″ or 30″ tube.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will it cycle light 2.75″ target loads reliably?
A: Yes, absolutely. One of the strengths of the Super Black Eagle II’s inertia system is its ability to cycle a huge range of ammunition, from 1-ounce target loads up to 3.5″ magnums, without any manual adjustments to the gun.
Q: Is the camo applied to the barrel and receiver as well?
A: Yes, the APG HD Hydro-Dip process covers the entire firearm—barrel, receiver, and ComforTech stock—for a seamless, fully camouflaged appearance that holds up to field abuse.
Q: What is the magazine capacity?
A: The plug is installed for hunting compliance, limiting capacity to 2+1 (two in the magazine tube, one in the chamber). With the plug removed, the magazine tube can hold up to four 2.75″ shells.
That said, if you’re a left-handed shooter tired of compromising, this Benelli is the solution built specifically for your needs. It’s a proven platform dressed in serious camo, ready for the marsh at dawn. See the full details on our site.
