New Benelli Super Vinci and Something About Peanut Oil

YouTube Preview Image

Three hundred bucks on top of the usual Vinci msrp buys you a Super Vinci that chambers 3.5″ magnum shells. That’ll be $1759 for camo and $1649 for black, minus discounts, plus tax, minus rebates, if any. Quite why Benelli wants to associate itself with the whole Supersize Me thing is a mystery best left to the marketing mavens, who may not have seen the movie by the same name. But definitely saw ZZ Top’s Sharp Dressed Man video. And Go Daddy ads. And John Lee Hooker’s Boom Boom Room. Magazine Capacity: 3+1. Crio® Chokes: C,IC,M,IM,F. Length of Pull: 14-3/8″. Drop at Heel: 2″. Drop at Comb: 1-3/8″. Type of Sights: Red bar front sight and metal bead mid-sight. Minimum recommended load: 3-dram, 1-1/8 oz. loads (12-ga.). Receiver drilled and tapped for scope mounting.

    Fun commercial. Guns, comedy, chicks and explosions. What more could a red-blooded American want. And only 30 seconds, Hollywood are you taking notes?

    Best. Drive Thru. Ever.

    “I’ll take a .357 Magnum, hold the adjustable sights, two small 9mms and ummm….what colors do your AR’s come in? Ok, black with OD grips. Oh and she’ll have a 1911. Kids you want some .22s?”

    But seriously, this may be the greatest gun selling idea EVER. If I owned a gunshop, I’d do it for the novelty and publicity. In fact…I have been looking for a job.

    If there was a shotgun in that ad, I must have missed it.

    ’80s hair band video director finds work. That looks like Whitesnake’s old pyro kit.
