Misc Beretta 1301 Mod 2 Follower Question

Post image

Hi All,

I recently purchased a brand new 1301 Mod 2, and the follower is green. Every video on the Mod 2 I’ve seen shows the stock follower as silver.

I was wondering if anyone else received their 1301 with a green follower?

I’m a bit paranoid that I was sold a used gun. But it looks brand new, and there are no blemishes or wear and tear.

Unrelated question but what do you guys typically do with those short shotguns?
I only have 30" long beretta a400 for clays

IPSC?

I have a long 28" beretta a400 xtreme plus for IPSC :)

For IPSC almost 6x 3.5" shell capacity is godsent for stocking 2 3/4" shells in the tube magazine.

The 1301 is only a for 3" shells which limit the legally allowed capacity. I still prefer more shell loading capacity and a longer & heavier canon with A400 XP Versus a shorter lighter 21" or 24" canon the 1301 has with lower loading capacity.

You can shoot 2 3/3out of the 1301 no problem and you can have 6 in the tube if you get an extension i belive correct me if i am wrong though

Yes i think you are right about this, 6x 2 3/4" shells would fit in the 1301 but for competition more is always better, you lose time reloading.

7 2 3/4 inch in the tube for SAMMI spec guns with 3" chambers.
