The basis of this model is the Beretta A400 where the House has concentrated every technical peak gained through years of experience and studies: in the presentation to the public nine points of excellence are indicated, some applied to certain specific models, others common to all.
Observing this Ultralite Beretta let's start with the weight that constitutes the emblem of the weapon: a mass of only 2.720 g in a 12/76 caliber with a wooden stock is a respectable result, especially if parameterized with what remains by physical law the antagonist of this value: the recoil.
Beretta A400 Ultralite - The characteristics
In this model there are no technical findings that we will see in other specimens, but the distribution of the masses and the low angle between the axis of the barrel and that of the stock manage to circumvent the numerical values of the forces involved, giving the shooter a very diluted.
Mastering the shotgun even by firing close shots is thus easier: the shape of the stock sees straight lines both for the back and for the lower part at the junction between guard and beak, raised nose piece and highlighted by two deep scratches, arched and elongated pistol on which hands of all sizes are well suited.
Beretta A400 Ultralite - The proof
Likewise, the shaft offers a firm and comfortable grip thanks to the strongly rounded prismatic section that falls ergonomically into the weak hand: the swing and directionality in pointing are instinctive.
