Thanks for showing us

When I got to the store to buy “a best fun shotgun available, no matter the price”, very trusted store owner advised me on the Beretta 1301 tactical, though he had both - M4 and 1301 in stock. His reason : 1301 lighter, cheaper and real fun to shoot ( realistically we understand, that , living in Brooklyn, NY, all you can do with a shotgun is to go to a rage ) and does the same job, if not better, than Benelli M4. I got the basic model: 7+1, regular straight stock with plastic hall for a sling on it and this little stamp on the barrel: Beretta, Gardone, made in Italy - priceless! Now, what I want to share, because it turned out to be just perfect: I bought and installed a Limbsaver ( for All Beretta ) - ideal fit, I bought and installed the Bushnell Advance micro red dot ( and can’t be happier ), I bought this :MOSANDON 12-Gauge Red Dot Laser Bore Sight for adjusting the Red Dot ( worked like a charm ) and a sling, this one : SOMA 2 Point QD Sling ( I had to widen the hall on the stock, which took me one minute ). The sling really helps with “loop around” technique, when you shoot in standing position. And finally, I had removed the rear iron sight ( the Ghost Ring ), I have fabricated out of a hard plastic the strip to cover the groove, where the sight had been and attached it to the sight place with the same two screws. And this is it. I got a beauty: light, perfectly balanced, all you need for the purpose shotgun. If it only could “eat” the mini’s, even if with manual recycling…

Nice shotguns there! Finally found a lgs that had a couple 1301’s so got to handle them. One was the standard model in green and the other was a black Tactical like yours. Was tempted but can’t buy anything right now. Already have an M4 LE with the collapsible stock and full length tube. Was Marine Infantry so it’s a nostalgia thing

Great bear guns! Thanks

I fell asleep, thank goodness I already have the 1301

Comparing both guns receivers would be more accurate if you had one receiver directly underneath the other. You said the 1301's receiver is shorter. The 1301 is wrongly positioned to the rear of the M4 because you have them lined up primarily by the stocks and barrels. So, measuring the receivers is totally cock-eyed the way you did it.

Out of the box the 1301 pretty much has all the upgrades to the Taran Tactical M4. How much more $$ is it to upgrade everything on the M4? I just placed an online order for the 1301 tactical 😎

I’ll keep my M4 thanks.

I can’t afford either 😂

My forend lug sheared off my 1301 LE and no hangs off the side.. is there moving parts that could have damaged it? I had many failure to ejects first 100 rounds then ran great and boom Fronde lug gone. I ordered another forend.

The pad was upside down wasn't it?

Been 4 months trying to buy a 1301 tactical but nobody has them. Wish Beretta could get more out the door.

The "Lightning System"?? Not sure what you're talking about.

Why not go stock to stock the m4 was modified

What is the better ?

How the gun been running after all the bs

The M4 is combat proven by the US military. Enough said.

The other huge advantage is the cheek riser since I mount an eotech xps2 on the pic rail.

Langdon Tactical Beretta 1301 would be a better comparison.

Nice! They're banning benelli m3 in canada.. fml

You should have lined them up for length at the rear of the receiver. The difference is not in the receiver as much as the stock. The 1301 stock is shorter for use with body armor. I like the 1301 better purely for price vs what comes standard out of the box. Got a 1301 like the one in your video and immediately got rid of my m4.

Cheer up buddy 🙄
