Beretta Ultraleggero 12ga 28" Bbl OBF-HP Over-Under Shotgun J690UFJ8

Beretta’s Ultraleggero Under/Over Shotgun combines elegance with utility, and offers the exclusive features that Beretta shotguns are known for. The Ultraleggero is exceptionally lightweight – weighting roughly the same are an aluminum-action shotgun – but delivers the strength and reliability akin to that of a steel-action shotgun. The low weight of the Ultraleggero can be attributed to a skeletonized receiver, as well as state-of-the-art engineering techniques, and optimized structural elements. The weight-saving features include an increased cavity in the stock, reducing weight by 129 grams when compared to other shotguns of the same size, and a select wood that features a reduced weight and density to achieve perfect balance. Weight is reduced even further thanks to an Extralight recoil pad which features a closed-cell structure, making it 30% lighter than other recoil pads, as well as providing greater resistance to abrasion and liquid absorption.

In addition to its ultra-light design, the Ultraleggero is equipped with numerous qualities and designs to enhance performance. Its receiver is based on Beretta’s renowned 690 series, which delivers a solid locking system with trapezoid shoulders and dual conical locking lugs. The sides and bottom of the receiver are meticulously carved out, leaving only the amount of metal that is strictly necessary in order to reduce even more weight and guarantee an extreme level of reliability for all types of cartridges, including magnum shells. One of the receiver’s more advanced qualities is its use of techno-polymer inserts. These inserts feature an aesthetically pleasing floral motif, and uses advanced manufacturing techniques that creates unique angles the surface, and simulats the visual effect of light reflected on steel engravings. The result is an in-and-out fade effect which casues the name “Ultraleggero” to be revealed when the receiver is rotated into the light, giving the shotgun’s appearance a distinct character. The Ultraleggero’s fore-end system is based on the 694 series, a design known for a smooth opening of the breech via redesigned barrel hook, and an aluminum construction for weight reduction. In addition, the Ultraleggero’s stock is made from 2.5 grade walnut and features an oiled finish for greater resistance to the elements and a timelessly classic look.
