I have one, 28" IC/Mod 3" chambers, SG/Splinter/DT, 14 3/4" LOP. No idea how many were made that way. I love it, although lately I've been using my 20 ga. Beretta 687 EELL Diamond Pigeon (DT 15" LOP by Rich Cole) for duck hunting. Although aesthetically I prefer SxS doubles, I shoot the Beretta O/U better than any other shotgun I own.

Hope I am not breaking proper etiquette by contributing to this as my first post but thought I would chime in.
I have one virtually identical to the specs cited by Joe Bernfeld 12ga - SG - DT - 28"(IC/Mod) - SPL - bbl marked 2-3/4 & 3" Bore = .735 Actual choke dim / L = .0115 R = .008 14-3/4 lop / 7# 3.5oz (Butt = 3# 10oz. - Fore = 7.6oz - bbl = 3# 2oz) New as the day it was made. ~Scot |

Scot's gun is a duplicate of mine. Now we know of 5. Pics of mine have been posted before.

But the neat thing about the one I just got is the original owner wanted to make the gun "right" so he sent it to Bachelder's and had the case coloring done correctly, had the borders on the checkering mullered, and had it refinished. The gun looks super now! I only wish it had double triggers.

It are true Joe..lol
Here you go.. IMG_6224.JPG IMG_6223.JPG IMG_6228.JPG The grain straightens quite nicely through the grip and it is a satin factory finish in lieu of bowling alley shine. I have put a small amount of lead down the tubes but alas - the gun does not fit me quite right for the type of instinctual shooting that I do I'm on the fence about a slight bend to add some cast which would align the rib properly as I prefer to just learn to shoot the darn gun as delivered more often than not. Gerry - those 26" bbls choked proper are nice and it sounds like a very nice set you have. Out of the 5 detailed your tally for the set seems to still remain all of 1..nice! |
