Beretta Silver Pigeon 1 - Hunting - 12/76 - 71cm barrel length
The evolution of an icon
The 686 Silver Pigeon I has always been the most prized Beretta over and under, heir to the glorious 680 model and a passionate object of sport shooters and hunters around the world since the 1950s. Recognizable at first sight by the unmistakable, low and slender receiver and famous for the legendary reliability of the mechanics. The newly developed model impresses with the perfect ballistics of the Steelium Optima Bore HP barrels and a new engraving with a floral motif, vine leaves, grapes and the well-known Beretta logo with the three arrows on all areas of the receiver.
The slender and elegant action frame of the 686 Silver Pigeon I with the tried-and-tested flank lock is based on the glorious 680 series and is characterized by the typical Beretta, trapezoidal shoulder pieces and the conical, double locking bolt. The engraving is realized with modern Beretta technology: a 5-axis laser capable of engraving rounded surfaces with perfect pattern continuity. The motif, created by Beretta master engravers, consists of modernly designed leaf tendrils, enriched with vine leaves and grape umbels as symbolic good luck charms. In addition to the receiver, the trigger guard, the locking lever and the forearm are also decorated with these motifs.
The gold-colored single trigger has a selector switch inside the safety slide that, with a simple and quick lateral movement, allows you to select the barrel for the first shot. The extremely reliable and robust ejector system is the proven system of the model 680, which has sold more than three million units for over 30 years to date.
The special Optima-Bore HP barrel geometry with an 80 mm transition cone is designed for optimal gas pressure development with both steel and lead shot. The coverage of the shot patterns is characterized by high density and even distribution of the shot, the 70 mm long OCHP chokes enable fine tuning for the individual needs of the shooter at all hunting distances and with all shot patterns used for hunting and sport.
All Beretta shotguns are equipped with a particularly stable flank lock, single trigger and ejector. The shaft length is classic 37 cm.
