Key features that matter

The 1301 Tactical C Model 2 is a 12 gauge semi-auto built to run 3″ shells from a 7+1 capacity with an 18.5″ black steel barrel. The black Picatinny rail receiver accepts optics and lights, while M-LOK handguards offer modular accessory mounting without excess weight. The black fixed synthetic stock provides a stable cheek weld and weather-resistant durability for daily carry or home defense duty.

Controls and ergonomics

Beretta focused on manual manipulation under stress: an oversized charging handle, a large highly textured bolt release, and an oversized reversible safety button give positive tactile engagement with gloved or wet hands. Those features shorten manipulations and reduce fumbling during high-tempo drills or low-light conditions.

Why 12 gauge matters for defense

The 12 gauge remains the standard for defensive shotguns because of its wide selection of defensive loads and consistent terminal performance. With the 1301’s reliable semi-auto action, follow-up shots are faster and more controllable than many pump options—important for scenarios that require rapid, accurate repeat shots.

Spec-driven value

At a suggested price of $1,699, this Beretta balances high-end controls and accessories with combat-ready durability. The combination of an 18.5″ barrel, Picatinny rail, and M-LOK handguard makes it a flexible platform for lights, optics, and sling systems.

For those specifying a duty shotgun that prioritizes ergonomics, rapid follow-up, and accessory compatibility, the BERETTA 1301 TACTICAL C MODEL 2 is engineered to perform.
