Benelli BiMillionaire

The name BiMillionaire was selected to celebrate the completion of Benelli's two millionth shotgun. More than 90-percent of the BiMillionaire’s contrasting two-tone receiver is covered with floral scroll engraving surrounding gold-accented game scenes. Each BiMillionaire is stocked with figured, AAA-Grade select, satin European walnut with fine-line cut checkering on the pistol grip and fore-end. Only 200 guns of each gauge will reach the American market and each gun of this limited edition is specially numbered on the bottom of the receiver. Designed and executed at the engraving workshop of Cesaré Giovanelli, the baroque entwined acanthus leaves and fine bevel-cut scrollwork that decorates the receiver is inspired by the masterwork of the great Italian armorers of the Renaissance. The left side features a cartouche surrounding a duck in flight, and the right side displays the Spinone Italiano, northern Italy's classic gun dog. Matched walnut butt plates are standard on the 12-gauge model. The 20-gauge BiMillionaire is fitted with a rubber recoil pad. Each BiMillionaire comes with a separate sterling silver medallion that can be custom engraved and set into the grip cap without having to ship the entire gun. A duck in full flight, rendered in gold engraving, rises above a cattail bordered marsh on the left receiver face. A distinctive half rosette, flanked by entwined scroll engraving accents both sides of the BiMillionaire’s receiver base. The rosette, with gold overlay and shaded background, is based on Renaissance-era interpretations.
