For upland hunting and fast-paced field work, a shotgun that balances speed, reliability, and minimal maintenance is a force multiplier. Experienced shooters want a tool that returns to target quickly, handles a variety of loads, and spends more time in the field than on the cleaning bench.

BERETTA A400 UPLAND is a purpose-built semi-auto whose gas-operated action was engineered for speed and dependability. The A400 action is self-cleaning, which means significantly less maintenance than nearly any other shotgun in regular service. Its low-profile action and self-cleaning piston combine to deliver the fastest follow-up shots of any shotgun in many hands while keeping felt recoil low. Shop this product

Action and Field Maintenance

The A400’s gas-operated system uses a self-cleaning piston that vents fouling and reduces the buildup that typically forces frequent strip-and-scrub cycles. Tool-free field-stripping is intuitive and fast — shooters report they can breakdown and reassemble the shotgun with minimal instruction. For hunters and professionals who need a reliable platform at dawn and a low-maintenance tool at dusk, that simplicity is a major advantage.

Performance attributes

Key features highlighted in the design include a low-profile action for sighting consistency, engineered low recoil for faster second-shot recovery, and a nickel finish that offers corrosion resistance and visual appeal. These characteristics make the shotgun versatile across chokes and loads, delivering consistent patterns and quick follow-ups in moving-target scenarios.
