I bought this gun only a couple of months ago. It was unfired and still in the factory grease. I have fired about 250 cartridges with it. I have had the safety catch converted to manual ($150) and had a Pachmyer Decelerator recoil pad professionally fitted ($200) so that even ounce and a quarter magnum loads are not painful to shoot.

It is a beautiful little gun but, now, as sometimes happens, something has come along which I lust after even more. So, on the basis of last into the gun safe first out I am offering this gun for sale again.

It is a Beretta Model 471 Silver Hawk side by side 20 gauge. The barrels are 26 inches with multi chokes. Five chokes are provided: Skeet, Imp.Cyl. Modified, Imp. Modified and Full. The chambers are 3 inch and the gun is proved for 3 inch ounce and a quarter magnum loads.

The English straight hand oil finished stock is one of the nicest pieces of walnut I have ever seen on a mass produced gun and the laser cut chequering is just amazing it is so good. Length of pull is 14 and 7/8 of an inch. There is no appreciable cast so the gun is useable by both right and left handed shooters. The gun weighs 6 lbs 12 oz.

Comes in a superior quality fitted Beretta case. The gun is in unmarked, as new condition and since the current retail price of this model is over $6000 this auction offers the chance to make a considerable saving.
