Key features that matter on duty or at home

The BERETTA 1301 TACTICAL is a gas-operated semi-automatic engineered for ultra-reliable cycling. Its integrated Blink gas operating system with a cross tube gas piston allows the platform to cycle 36 percent faster than competing designs, delivering reduced lock time and faster follow-up shots. The receiver’s aircraft-grade aluminum construction includes a MIL-STD 1913 Picatinny rail, so adding optics is immediate and tool-free.

Controls and ergonomics

Controls are designed for fast manipulation under stress: oversized charging handle, large textured bolt release, and a reversible oversized safety button improve accessibility whether you’re wearing gloves or operating in low light. Aggressive checkering on the fore-end and stock helps maintain a secure two-handed grip while moving through tight interiors.

Barrel, sighting, and choke versatility

The barrel features a ghost-ring rear and an interchangeable front sight for quick target acquisition. The shotgun ships with an OptimaBore HP Improved Cylinder choke in a flush configuration and supports an interchangeable choke system to tune shot patterns for different defensive loads. These features make the 1301 Tactical adaptable across engagement distances and payload types.

Priced at $1,777.99 and listed in the Semi Auto category, the BERETTA 1301 TACTICAL represents a premium defensive platform with modern controls and rapid-cycle performance.
