The Beretta 686 Silver Pigeon I delivers the refined performance and reliability that clay shooters and upland hunters demand from a premium over/under shotgun. This J686S1230 model combines traditional Italian craftsmanship with modern manufacturing precision to create a shotgun that excels across multiple disciplines. Built on Beretta's proven 686 action, this firearm provides the consistent lockup and smooth operation that competitive shooters rely on.
What Makes This Different
The Silver Pigeon I features Beretta's low-profile action with dual conical locking lugs that distribute stress evenly across the receiver for enhanced durability. Unlike basic over/under designs, this model incorporates a chrome-lined bore with Optima-Bore HP technology that delivers tighter patterns and reduced felt recoil. The Steelium barrel construction provides consistent shot placement while maintaining the lightweight handling characteristics essential for wing shooting.Key Features
