Beretta Xtrema for 3 Gun

[oak hill]

I really like Beretta's shotgun and see that this is the first model that can be outfitted with an extended mag tube. Does any one have experience with dressing one up for 3 gun?

I don't have any experience setting up this shotgun for 3 guns, but without the existance of speedloaders, you are pretty much stuck in the limited class (unless you have access to a talented gunsmith that can fabricate one.) like my SLP. I do really like the Briley advertisement in the July/August issue of Front Sight with blue charging handle and carrier release.

Thanks,

It would be a limited gun. That is exactly what got me thinking about it!

did you ever go ahead and get the Beretta Xtrema and set it up for 3-Gun?

I run one currently and love it. Heavier than M2 but that helps with the recoil. With the Xtrema 1 you'll want a trigger job done but the Xtrema 2 addressed the sloppy trigger issue and should be fine. Never any problem feeding with ammo (other than one time I used some real old field ammo and the head separated but that was an ammo problem) and I run a dirty gun. Briley is now doing a full package on them but I just ordered the extension and bolt handle and also put on the Briley bolt release. The lifter is not forked like on a Benelli so you don't have to weld it up or learn how to properly load like Benny recommends to have a good chance of keeping all the skin on your thumb. If you have any other questions feel free to pm me.
