Over-and-Unders Beretta has developed and refined an incomparable design technology, enabling it to become the only manufacturer in the world to surpass the record figure of 1.5 million over-and-unders produced - an extremely high percentage of which are still being satisfactorily owned and operated by their owners. Beretta's patented locking system creates a particularly slim receiver, making the Beretta over-and-under the most elegant, finely balanced and responsive double barrel shotgun in the world. Beretta's extensive line of over-and-unders allows hunters to choose shotguns ideal for their needs, and to even customize their own firearm. On request, some competition models can have special comb and cast stock dimensions or be equipped with adjustable stock.
A leap in quality The new Silver Pigeon III represent a further leap in quality in the Silver Pigeon over-and-under range.
Dedicated to the increasing flock of hunters who desire for their shotgun to set them apart, they are produced in classic 12, 20, 28 and .410 gauges. The new 28/.410 gauge receiver is a masterpiece of slenderness and elegance, functionality and robustness.
Stock, receiver, barrels, fore-end: each component is perfectly proportioned with the other, and balanced in weight in order to guarantee maximum handling and ease of swing.
Close to a masterpiece What’s impressive at first sight, in the new Beretta Silver Pigeon III, is the superior quality of the walnut stock and fore-end; its beauty further exalted by a precious oil finish and the newly designed, ergonomic checkering executed by Laser technology. The Schnabel fore-end and oval initials shield further personalize these handsome shotguns.
If the standard shock absorbing Gel•Tek recoil pad makes a day of intense hunting even more enjoyable, then the Truglo® luminous front sight (in alternative to the classic nickel silver one) assures maximum performance even in conditions of scarce visibility. The cold hammer forged and deeply blued barrels come with the appreciated screw-in Mobilchoke® tubes, or classic fixed chokes for 12 and 20 gauges only.
Richly engraved On the Silver Pigeon III, the rich engraving perfectly marries the ornate floral motifs of the receiver to the lovely hunting scenes of the side panels depicting ducks and pheasants on the 12 gauge and quails and woodcocks on the smaller gauges. The “gold” Beretta logo stands out on the trigger plate making the firearm identifiable in the gun rack at a glance.
The special Beretta nickel base treatment protects the receiver from weather conditions.
