I really want a Benelli M2 3 Gun Edition. I can't decide if I want a
21" or 24" barrel. What are the pro's and con's of each?

You get slightly more velocity with the 24" barrel, plus the mag tube doesn't look disproportionate.  I shot with a person that had the new 3G tuned by RCI.  It was a bust.  They had nothing but trouble.  Personally, I would get a Taran Tactical M2.  I have a 24" M2 from TTI and never had any issues.  Occasionally, I forget to change the mag tube spring and the last round wont feed but M2's are known to go through springs.

Where in PA are you located?

Do a search on here, it's been covered
Basically NO difference between a 12" and 26"

Longer sighting plane vs more maneuverability.  Really a preference.   I know the M2 is supposed to dominate but I see more Benellis" with issues than any other gun.  Maybe because there are more o them around to fail?  I went with Verasmax Comp Tact. 22" barrel.  Added nothing but a home made Match Saver (3/4" Pex pipe same as the real one).  Zero issues so far.

This weekend is the Armalite 3person 3G team match.  Come and check out tomorrow if you can.  There are going to be a lot of great shooters.  Dean puts on a great match.
