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?

For ipsc I use the A400 28" with the 3.5" chamber. You can put an extension tube to load less than six 3.5" shells which works out to be seven 2-3/4" shells in the tube. So you can get a total of nine 2-3/4" shells into the gun. I also run a dot and tony system comp, which puts me in modified iirc. I needed to make some modifications to the comp to get it to fit though since it is designed for the 1301 iirc. The overall length of the gun with the comp is a little bit less than the ipsc limit.
