All SOLD!!!!

Thanks for taking the time to post this. I am very tempted by the LTT Beretta 1301 every time someone posts pictures / information about it but I’ve promised myself I won’t buy another shotgun that isn’t better than a Benelli M4. The Beretta might be very, very good but I have yet to see anyone post any reason why it’s better. I keep a Benelli M4 beside my bed for the bumps in the night because I want the most durable and reliable semi-auto shotgun available for protecting me and my family. And I keep coming back to that quote you posted from the owner of Battlefield Vegas - “If I ever had to have one shotgun for the rest of my life, it would be the Benelli M4.”

When I was a kid, I had this Chinese one pump .177 caliber rifle. That thing fucks. I think it was only like 600 FPS, but that was pretty good back in the 90’s. It was so accurate with iron sights that I would cut those rubber super balls in half and lay them on the ground out at 50-70 yards, and chase them away out of sight. Same with 12 gauge hulls. It was a sad day when that thing broke and couldn’t be repaired.

stock was delivered quickly and in fantastic condition. thank you

I've had a very good experience with Benjamin Marauder pre-charged pneumatic in .22cal with Vortex scope for 3 years now. Amazing how quiet and accurate it is. 10rnd rotary mag. Very effective for squirrel control out to 50yds in my back yard. The Benjamin hand pump (like a bicycle pump) requires some effort but serves me well. Sold my RWS 45 & Beeman break barrel spring air guns and not looking back. https://www.amazon.com/Benjamin-Marauder-Synthetic-22-Caliber-Pellet/dp/B00AU6EICA/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIoue46ZaB8gIV8Ql9Ch03swNmEAAYAiAAEgIUafD_BwE&hvadid=409932612870&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=9032443&hvnetw=g&hvqmt=e&hvrand=17370986227004947859&hvtargid=kwd-366283456686&hydadcr=9653_11535436&keywords=pcp+marauder&qid=1627317705&sr=8-2

Been down that rabbit hole. There are some nice reasonably priced break barrels out there. Most .177 are fast and loud. Settled for a Crossman(reproduction) CO2 in .22 that I made a lot of modifications to boost the power but try stay subsonic. Still kinda loud. Just not like a .22LR. .22 and .25 cal have quite the punch. Sometimes on small targets the .177 passes thru and they can go cartwheeling and bouncing off into neighbors yard. LOL Rangeing your setup is very important. I setup some targets at different positions in the yard to know my drop. This allows for headshots. My favorite break barrel is an RWS 34 that will shoot one hole at 30yds. Then there's the PCP world. These are the pre-charged pneumatics. The glorified co2. Fill off of a scuba tank, and can get multiple high velocity shots with little loss. But, one of the name brand break barrels at big box stores will do the job. Make sure if you scope that it is an air gun scope. They have a reverse recoil that will damage a regular scope.

I have one of those Gamo Bone Collector 22 caliber single pump air rifles with an integrated suppressor. Man that thing thumps. It beats the hell out of my old 22 caliber Sheridan that took 10 pumps.

Whatever you get, you want it to be very accurate and guaranteed deadly. That means you need a minimum 1000 FPS .177 cal. Anything less than 1000 FPS and it's not guaranteed to kill anything tougher than a bird. And really a waste of money IMO. Trouble is, they are loud. And you need to be careful of over penetration and be mindful to have a good backstop in case you miss. But the good news is that many of them can be had with a built into the barrel silencer, which are supposed to be very good at suppressing the sound. I have no experience with one of those though. A break open, single shot, spring piston air rifle. Iv'e had a Ruger brand one, (made in China LOL) for about 10 years and it's been extremely accurate with a 50 dollar scope on it at the ranges Iv'e used it at, (max. 60 yds or so) and a reliable killer on very tough rodent-type varmints..if you opt for one of these type expect to pay about $130-$150 up to about $200+ for one with a suppressor. This is the one Iv'e had for ten years but I put a better scope on it. It is pretty loud. Very sharp CRACK! And these spring piston Hi-Vel types do recoil some. https://www.airgundepot.com/ruger-blackhawk-air-rifle.html

ill take the M4 stock..message inbound

Your car is disgusting. Thanks for sharing

WCCPHD, My 1301 has the Magpul stock which has seperate inserts for customizing the length of pull. Might want to try one out. It is actually the mossberg magpul stock with adapter for the beretta.

It is extremely robust. https://www.aridusindustries.com/product-category/beretta1301/ The 1301 will cycle all things well, except LL, and it comes closer to cycling those than the M4, from what I have HEARD. I would believe it. That said, if you have a shell that will not quiiiettttte cycle your M4, but does the 1301, I'd say the margin is too slim to count on it, anyways. My test for cycling/function is to hold the weapon like a big pistol without locking my arm, and run it. If it will cycle through the mag and lock back, I consider it G2G. The 1301 is a great shotgun. It is, however, a hunting gun steered toward tactical use, and the elements of design when you take it apart show this. It will not run for as long as an M4, but it will run very very very very long, indeed!
