I would take a long look at adding the magpul stock. It takes what is a superb shotgun to the next level.

To put it bluntly the factory non pistol grip stock has no business even being near a 1301… it’s garbage.

People who worry about 922r are the same people that leave those ugly plastic rear fenders on motorcycles because it’s “illegal” to remove them.

Has anyone opened up the loading port on their 1301 tactical? I know the competition models are opened up some already, along with having the longer receiver.

I’ve been thinking about opening up mine, I’m not planning on crazy 3 gun opened up, but it could certainly use some work.

Any tips? Just removing some metal doesn’t seem too bad, well within my capacity. I’d have to pick up some tools for this for sure, I think a number of small files and dremel bits. Any tips on getting it really smoothed and polished. Good files to use?

I have one of the 'pre production' 1301 Tacticals they pumped out back in July. Don't like pistol grips (on shotguns) so put a standard Beretta stock on it. Features I like; bolt release, the weight, and build quality is what you expect.

Ran it against my FN SLP. The 1301 ran great, but the SLP remains my favorite. Benelli makes a nice gun but the M4 never really did it for me.

I'll probably keep the 1301 but a better rifle stock would be a good upgrade. I've got Magpul furniture on my 590 SBS, and really like it, but am having a hard time thinking about doing that to a Beretta.

Edit: other upgrade will be a competition lifter whenever those come back in stock.

@KILLERB6

I’ve wanted a second stock only 1301 but how do you like the pistol grip version?

Agreed, my M4 has liked all the ammo I've tried, never had a ftf or fte. Bought my M4 many years ago for around $1300 or so. The Beretta looks nice, but I see no reason to buy one when I've already have the Benelli.

Says Capacity is 6+1, I thought the 'new' 1301 model was 7+1?

Thanks to NY's (un)SAFE Act, a semi-auto shottie with a pistol grip is a no-go, regular stock is fine though (max of 7 rounds, and no detachable mags allowed). I'll probably grab a 1301 next year, bought too much this summer...

I bought mine two months ago from GunPrime and it came with the screw in choke. The SKU Model was J131T18C. I added everything else. It originally had the Mossberg/Aridus stock but my old snowboarding wrist could deal with the grip angle. Switched over to the pistol grip and it’s perfect.

1 - gen 2 has an opened up loading port, I don’t believe it’s as mush as a competition model though

2 - new extension seems to be polymer, I can’t say it’s an upgrade or not. I’m sure it will work just fine.

It works that good, about 5 minutes of playing around I have it down pretty well.

beretta doesn’t leave much room under the factory hand guard so getting it drilled in the right spot the first time is a little stressful.

If you're using that light mount and (I'm assuming) a mag extension, where/how are you attaching the front end of a sling? Thanks for the advice!

I don't use a sling on my home defense guns.

But if you wanted to run both you can put a sling mount or a light mount forward with a barrel clamp attachment. Or use something like the BFG universal sling loop.

I strongly considered the 18.5 inch Tactical version.

Nordic makes a perfect flush +2 for it.

I never found a 24 inch version like I wanted locally to handle first.

I have a 21 inch with a plus three that lines up real good with a Beretta 0.5 extended choke.  The plus three tube is 7.5 inches long.



The plus four tube is a touch under ten inches long.  It looks about an 1/8 of an inch short on a 24.

I saw someone with a plus 5 on a 24, that lines up pretty good with the extended 2” beretta choke.
