The Black Eagle slug gun which is what you have according to this post and your previous post was imported in 1990-1991 according to the Blue book of Gun Values. You can check with Benelli customer service but I am pretty sure that Black Eagle barrels interchange with Montefeltro Super 90 barrels and maybe others but certainly not SBE. The date code is 'CN' and the last two #s' of the serial # is 15 so taking things into account it is a 2015 model, both receiver and bbl are 'Made In Italy'. I I really don't know if this is assembled in the USA or Italy? It does also have 'Benelli USA Corp stamped on it.

2. A serial number can be a crucial bit of information in determining the value of a shotgun. It's common for a shotgun to have a serial number but no information about the brand name of the weapon. Since an antique shotgun can be worth a lot of money - ranging in value from hundreds to several thousands of dollars.

Overall Condition: This shotgun retains about 95+% of its metal finish. There are light compression marks on the tube extension serrations, the metal shows faint scuffing, which did not pierce through to bare metal. The bolt does not have any notable operational wear, overall it does not look like this shotgun saw much use in its life. The screw heads are sharp. The markings are crisp. Overall, this shotgun rates in about Excellent condition.

Mechanics: The action functions correctly. The shotgun incorporates Benelli’s Inertial Driven System: http://www.benelliusa.com/in-line-inertia-driven. The installed magazine tube holds 7 shells. We have not fired this shotgun. As with all used firearms, a thorough cleaning may be necessary to meet your maintenance standards.

Box, Paperwork & Accessories: None.

Our Assessment: The Benelli M1 Super 90 sprang forth from the Heckler & Koch 512, which incorporated Benelli’s inertia recoil system; the 512 had a ‘man cutter’ choke which could pattern projectiles into stripes, aptly named for its ability to chop through anything it wanted. Fast forward a few years and you have the M1 Super 90, a famous shotgun, used by professional 3-gun shooters on tactical courses, all the way to competitive sporting clay champions; the inertia system is extremely smooth with minimal maintenance and reduction of recoil as positive attributes. This is a 1989 Super 90 with fixed rifle style sights, a nice matte black finish and 7 shot tube capacity; HK imported M1 Super 90’s can be ‘ghost loaded’ with one in the chamber, another right behind it in the receiver and then whatever you have in the tube. We believe its high condition is enough to label this early HK import ‘collectible’, as the M series is still going strong with its track record, it has gained attention through modern video games and movies, so if you keep it in this condition, you will have invested wisely. If you want the ultimate semi-auto scatter gun for home defense or duty carry, this one will perform reliably and is a little lighter than the 1100 with an alloy receiver. It is well balanced and some of the punch from buckshot or slug shells will be reduced with the rotating bolt face and inertia system.
