Product Description
Benelli R1 Pro Semi-Automatic Rifle
Most sporting firearms today differ little in terms of technology from those developed a century ago. That’s why the design team at Benelli set out to create something completely new, and succeeded with the R1 semi-automatic hunting rifle – a trim, fast-handling firearm with style to spare.
The R1’s action is based on Benelli’s innovative M4 military shotgun used by the United States Marine Corps. It incorporates the auto-regulating, gas-operated (ARGO) system adapted for use with centerfire rifle cartridges paired with a three-lug rotary bolt. The gas cylinder is positioned to allow for a short operating rod, resulting in less felt recoil than other rifles.
Astute observers will note the R1’s sleek outline somewhat resembles Benelli’s legendary Super Black Eagle shotgun. The free-floating, cryogenically treated barrel is mated to a sturdy steel upper receiver to offer outstanding accuracy and a secure platform for mounting optics. The lower receiver is anodized aluminum to reduce weight. The stock is select walnut and fitted with a unique recoil pad that is thickest where recoil is concentrated.
The Pro is similar to other R1s in basic styling and function, but there are some significant differences. First, these rifles have standard adjustable iron sights with fiber-optic tubes. The rear sight is secured in a sleek, durable carbon-fiber housing, and the front sight is adjustable and can be easily replaced. The rifle is also drilled and tapped for a Picatinny rail, so mounting a scope is fast and easy. Other upgrades include a bronze finish on the receiver and a higher-grade wooden stock.
