Beretta Pre-owned Model A-300 Semi-Auto Shotgun - 12 Gauge Walnut
Beretta Pre-owned Model A-300 Semi-Auto Shotgun - 12 Gauge Walnut
Good condition late 1980s model of the A-300 semi auto shotgun. This is an excellent field semi-auto, offering a quick, easy handling gun with the reassuring build that wooden furniture provides. The gas piston system that the A-300 utilises makes the shotgun smooth and comfortable to shoot. The built in adjuster system also makes it easier to cycle lighter cartridges, however this gun will be happiest with 28gr and over loads. There is some cosmetic marking to the stock and barrel, but that is to be expected from a gun made in 1988. The barrel is a later replacement, stamped as being from 1997 and is multi choked. This gun is supplied with 3 chokes and key.
