Dear members,
Do all Beretta AL391 models (Urika Standard, Urika Synthetic, Urika U, Urika Slug etc) have an alloy (aluminum?) receiver? Are there any AL391 models that have steel receiver?
I am asking this because there is a weight difference between various models. For instance:
Urika Base weighs 3 kg,
Urika U Base weighs 3,3 kg,
Urika Slug weighs 3,2 kg
Urika Synthetic weighs 3,4 kg,
Urika U Synthetic weighs 3,6 kg etc.
(I apologize for using the metric system!)
I understand the purpose of the weight difference but in what way is that achieved? By using alloy vs steel receiver? Different woods? Other?
I am particulary interested in the differences between the Standard Urika model and the Urika Synthetic (apart from the synthetic stock and forend)
Your info is much appreciated, thank you :)
