Beretta 1301 Comp 12 Gauge 21 in Overview
Beretta built the 1301 Comp to win tactical competitions right out of the box, combining technology from its sporting shotguns with what fast action shooters need. It cycles extremely fast, handles quickly with its short barrel, and has competition oriented controls that are easy to work under the clock.
Blink Gas System
The Blink gas operating system cycles about 36 percent faster than many competing semi autos, and Beretta says it can fire four shots in under a second. The self cleaning gas piston sheds fouling, so the gun keeps running through long match days with less maintenance.
21 Inch Steelium Barrel
The 21 inch barrel is made with Beretta Steelium technology and has a vented rib and a fiber optic front sight. A short barrel swings fast between targets, which is exactly what you want on a stage with targets spread across a bay.
Optima-Choke HP
The 1301 Comp takes Optima-Choke HP flush tubes and ships with an Improved Cylinder choke, a good all around choice for close to medium range steel and paper. Other Optima HP tubes are widely available if you want more constriction for slugs or longer shots.
Competition Controls
An oversized bolt release and oversized safety are easy to find and run with gloves or under stress. The pistol grip has aggressive checkering for a secure hold. The receiver is drilled and tapped so you can mount a red dot plate or rail.
Stock and Fit
The synthetic stock is short, with a 13 inch length of pull and aggressive non slip checkering, so it mounts quickly in a squared up stance and works with heavier clothing. Spacers let you adjust length of pull to fit.
Capacity and Magazine Extensions
From the factory the tube holds 5 shells plus one in the chamber. To comply with federal import rules, Beretta does not ship magazine extensions installed, but aftermarket extensions are available for buyers who want more capacity for 3-Gun and other matches where legal.
Home Defense Use
The same fast cycling and short barrel make the 1301 Comp a solid home defense shotgun. Add a weapon light and a sling, and pattern your defensive loads before relying on them.
State Laws
Shotguns are legal in every state, but a few restrict features or magazine capacity. We can only ship this shotgun where it is legal. Pennsylvania buyers can transfer at our Collegeville shop or at any FFL.
