  • @raletky
    @raletky Před 2 měsíci +14

    I bought a 1301 mod2 a couple of weeks ago. I quickly discovered that I need to remove the magazine spring retainer clip in order to get a capacity of 7 shells into the magazine tube. Hornady shells are slightly shorter, allowing 7 shells into the tube without removing the retainer spring. Also, the stock barrel clamp is sub par.
    Aside from that nitpick, it is an exceptional weapon that is better than my older beloved Benelli M1S90 in every respect. It is also a more complete firearm than the Benelli M4 out of the box. Almost every M4 buyer will want to upgrade the stock, add an extended mag tube, and change the bolt release right away. This isn't necessary with the 1301, although I do really like the Magpul stock. Lastly, the 1301 runs the Federal Flite Control 1145fps LE 00 buck without any problems.
    This concludes my evaluation of the Beretta 1301 mod 2 12 guage shotgun.
    Thank you for the video.

    • @Jrh-rp7np
      @Jrh-rp7np Před 2 měsíci +1

      That’s probably my biggest gripe you pay nearly 2000 for a shotgun you’d expect the tube at the end there to be at least aluminum as well as the MLok at the end… you can actually buy the a metal magazine extension and the MLok clip,,it’s a package deal together for a pretty decent price ,, I forgot the brand,, but if you search you’ll find it..

    • @ZSmith-yy4lv
      @ZSmith-yy4lv Před 2 měsíci +3

      Nordic Components makes that aluminum tube shroud and clamp combo for about $100.

    • @raletky
      @raletky Před 2 měsíci +1

      @Jrh-rp7np the 1301 mod2 that I have, comes stock with M Lok slots on the forend. Yes, the plastic shroud for the mag tube is a bit off-putting and I'll probably replace it and the clamp.

    • @markn4526
      @markn4526 Před 2 měsíci +1

      GG&G has a solution as well. How necessary is it to even have the barrel clamp installed if you don't need the extra M-Lok points?

    • @jreezy70
      @jreezy70 Před měsícem +1

      I’ve noticed with some brands I can only get 6 in the tube, so that’s interesting feedback. I did change to the Magpul stock, and added an Esstac 5-round shotgun card to the receiver.

    I bought one when the Tactical Model first came out. Mine had the shorter mag and the problematic bolt release. I put the aftermarket fix to the bolt release issue on it, and added a mag extension and accessory rail mag brace, and it's pretty much just like yours now. Never had a failure. Great gun. And mild recoiling for its weight.

    Sir Hickok, I qualified Sharpshooter and proud of it !! But the last shot at 300 meters that would have qualified me as Expert marksman,haunts me. I hit 2 out of 3 three hundred meter targets,but I got cocky expecting a closer target and my round fell a nanosecond after the last 300 meter target fell .I say it haunts me because that might have been the round out of all that may have saved a fellow soldier.

    Thanks. When I upgrade to semi-auto, it will be this gun, so it's good to see this video.

    It’s a symbiosis Sir. Buds provides you with weapons to showcase and my first Buds purchase was because I heard about them on your channel. Love your content.

    I have a Panzer Arms M4 clone nicely dressed out, and with that, I have the Holosun HS510C mounted up top and it is a very nice match for this tactical shotgun!

    Hickock45 is John Wick in retirement using a tactical Beretta shotgun. 😅

    As always, ❤ your content. I already own a Rem 870 & Mossburg Shockwave. But just might need to get one of these Berettas ( providing I'm still allowed to in the people's rebuplic of WA)
    BTW, in the PNW a slug fest is going out to the garden and hand picking all the slugs off your freshly planted greens! 😂

    I have the green 1301 and love it. The gun is light and it hasn't bobbled a single time

    I love my pump shotgun, I just purchased a Remington 1100 non magnum? , Great trigger and the choke is tight next to my Mossberg with the turkey twist in
    Just a great shotgun 😊
