At its heart, it has the best-in-class 686 action, which is compact and low-profile while being extremely strong. Besides 12 and gauge, for a true premium-grade experience. Whether you take it to an upland hunt or to the clay range, the Silver Pigeon I gives you the flawless performance and the classic looks of a Beretta. Featuring classic lines, the most-durable action on the market and the flexibility of the Beretta Mobil-Choke system, the 686 Silver Pigeon I was designed to last through generations of hunters. The Silver Pigeon I is built on the legendary 686 action, a long-standing favorite among hunters and competitive shooters. It features two conical locking lugs at mid-action, right between the barrels, giving it great locking strength and durability while keeping the action&#8217;s profile considerably lower. The advantage is that the eye of the shooter is a lot closer to the plane of his supporting hand &#8211; considerably better swing and hand-eye coordination. With its unmistakable low, slim action and ultra-reliable mechanisms, this version adopts the perfect ballistics of the stellium Optima HP barrels and features a more defined and lustrous floral engraving of grapes on the vine as well as the iconic Beretta logo on each side of the action.<\/p>\n<h1 class=\"wp-block wp-block-post-title block-editor-block-list__block editor-post-title editor-post-title__input rich-text is-selected\" role=\"textbox\" aria-label=\"Add title\" aria-multiline=\"true\"><\/h1>\n<p><strong>Features:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Flawless fit and finish<\/li>\n<li>Interchangeable chokes &#8211; the Silver Pigeon I features the popular Beretta Mobil choke system, allowing you to easily interchange choke tubes to suit a gamut of types of hunting or shooting<\/li>\n<li>Low profile receiver &#8211; the 686 action is renown for its compactness and low profile, besides adding to the overall elegance of the gun, it enables the shooter&#8217;s eye to be close to the plane of the supporting hand, making pointing easy and natural<\/li>\n<li>Schnabel &#8211; the schnabel forend adds a touch of old-world flare to the 686 Silver Pigeon I Sporting, guiding the eye even better along its smooth lines<\/li>\n<li>Scroll engraving &#8211; the receiver of the 686 is embellished with traditional designs reminiscent of the British and European gunmaking schools<\/li>\n<li>Scroll engraving &#8211; the geometry of the scrolls is proportioned to match the elegance of the receiver, as well as to complement the overall lines of this perfectly-balanced shotgun<\/li>\n<li>Cold hammer forged barrel &#8211; no matter how great a shotgun&#8217;s action and how impeccable the balance, the shot must first travel through the barrel in order to make it to the target<\/li>\n<li>Tang safety and barrel selector &#8211; the tang safety control is conveniently positioned to be easily operated by the thumb of the shooting hand<\/li>\n<li>Tang safety and barrel selector &#8211; it also contains a barrel selector that enables you to choose which barrel to fire first, depending (for instance) on the chokes you have selected<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>SPECIFICATIONS:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Series\/Collection:&nbsp;<\/strong>686 Silver Pigeon I<\/li>\n<li><strong>Action:&nbsp;<\/strong>Over\/Under<\/li>\n<li><strong>Stock Type:&nbsp;<\/strong>Fixed Checkered<\/li>\n<li><strong>Trigger Type:&nbsp;<\/strong>Single Selective<\/li>\n<li><strong>Magazine Capacity:&nbsp;<\/strong>2<\/li>\n<li><strong>Caliber\/Gauge:&nbsp;<\/strong>12 Ga<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sight:&nbsp;<\/strong>Metal Bead Front<\/li>\n<li><strong>Barrel Material:&nbsp;<\/strong>Cold Hammer Forged Steelium<\/li>\n<li><strong>Stock Material:&nbsp;<\/strong>Walnut<\/li>\n<li><strong>Barrel Finish:&nbsp;<\/strong>Chrome-Lined<\/li>\n<li><strong>Receiver Finish:&nbsp;<\/strong>Nickel Engraved<\/li>\n<li><strong>Stock Finish:&nbsp;<\/strong>Oil<\/li>\n<li><strong>Barrel Length:&nbsp;<\/strong>28&#8243;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chamber Length:&nbsp;<\/strong>3&#8243;<\/li>\n<li><strong>CWeight:&nbsp;<\/strong>7.2 lb<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chokes:&nbsp;<\/strong>Optima-Choke HP C, F, M<\/li>\n<li><strong>Barrel Type:&nbsp;<\/strong>Vent Rib<\/li>\n<li><strong>Orientation:&nbsp;<\/strong>Right<\/li>\n<li><strong>Rib Width:&nbsp;<\/strong>1\/4&#8243; x 1\/4&#8243; Flat<\/li>\n<li><strong>Recoil Pad:&nbsp;<\/strong>MicroCore<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Back in Stock &#8211; Latest Version!
