Beretta Xtrema ?
I've been looking at the utube demos of the Xtrema. It seems very comfortable and reliable. Which model holds 12 shots? Is that an adapter or tube extension? What's the lowest prices you've seen on it? Thanks.

I've never seen the "12 shot" gun however I can only speak to the one I have which is the extrema 2 in camo. I've had it a few years and have had nothing but reliable service and the kick is almost like a .20 gauge As far as the price, the cheapest I've seen it was $1,100.00

You may be confusing the Beretta Xtrema with the AA12 which has detachable box and drum mags.
I went to YouTube and did a search for Beretta Xtrema and clicked the first offering. While the Skeet field pro shooter was doing his demo, the YouTube side bar had thumbnails of the AA12. I can see how you may have been confused. |

I really like my extrema2. for shooting clays or bird hunting, it seems just about perfect. I'd say it recoils maybe 2/3rds as much as a pump gun, just going by feel.

Zippy, there is a 12 round xtrema, I seen it on a dvd catalog first than on youtube finally seen one in my local gunshop... Must be heavy as a tank with a full tube... 28 or 30 inch barrel and the mag goes ALLLLLL the way to the end...

Thanks for the show, hogdogs.
I couldn't find any listings for a retail version of a 12-shot Beretta. But, if you do the math: 11 x 2 3/4" = 30 1/4" So, it's conceivable that the demonstration team armorer could get an 11-shot magazine under a 32" barrel. |

Yeah in the years since I seen the DVD catalog I have seen a total of 1 multiplied by 1 with my own eyes
