The Beretta 1301 Comp is a competition-ready semi-automatic shotgun, specifically designed for 3-gun matches and practical/tactical shooting. Drawing from Beretta’s extensive experience in sporting shotguns and tactical firearms, the 1301 Comp is engineered to deliver lightning-fast performance and exceptional handling. This shotgun is available in two barrel lengths—21" and 24"—and is equipped with a drilled and tapped receiver for easy mounting of optics or tactical aiming devices without the need for gunsmithing. The Optimabore HP interchangeable choke system further enhances its versatility. Key to the 1301 Comp’s competitive edge is its Blink gas-operating system, which allows it to cycle 4 shots in less than a second—36% faster than any other shotgun in its class. The shotgun is also designed with oversized controls, including an enlarged cocking handle, bolt-release lever, and loading and ejection ports, ensuring easy and intuitive operation under the pressure of competition. The Steelium barrel, Beretta’s proprietary steel blend, is built for durability, offering consistent performance even after tens of thousands of rounds. The barrel features a stepped, wide sporting rib to minimize mirage, and a combination of mid-bead and front fiber optic sights for quick target acquisition. The 1301 Comp also boasts a tactical stock with aggressive non-slip checkering and an adjustable length of pull that provides a customized fit for optimal control and accuracy, no matter the shooter’s style or build.
