1973 Beretta AL2. 12/28 mod choke with a 3" chamber. Made in Italy. To my understanding the furniture on these was hand-checkered English Walnut, but the receiver engraving was stamped. Still, for $400 it's a classy little gun. I've been casually looking for a gas semi for a few years, and after a week of hem-hawing I finally called Beretta customer support to confirm it'd be steel-safe and pulled the trigger.
Hoping to bust a couple of clays with it tomorrow. Really looking forward to a bit less recoil in the timber. She's nice and light and seems to point right where I aim her. Total change of pace from the ole 500.
Buddy of mine named her. I told him I wanted a fancy Italian name...
