This 1301 Tactical is built around Beretta's B-LINK gas-operated system for fast, reliable cycling. It includes an oversized charging handle and a large textured bolt-release paddle for easy manipulation, along with a reversible cross-bolt safety.
The 18.5-inch Steelium (tri-alloy) barrel is cold hammer forged and stamped OB HP with a 18.6 mm bore, reflecting the Optimabore HP back-bored system. It is Optima-Choke HP compatible and chambered for both 2 3/4-inch and 3-inch shells.
Sighting is straightforward and durable: a protected front post pairs with a ghost-ring rear. The receiver-top MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail is factory-installed and integrates the rear sight assembly.
The synthetic furniture is finished in FDE, including a fixed stock with a rubber recoil pad and checkered grip, plus a rear sling swivel stud. The forend is synthetic to match. Overall length is approximately 37.8 inches with a 13.0-inch length of pull.
This example is the Pre‑Mod.2 configuration and is marked with the B-LINK designation on the action. It carries the BERETTA U.S.A. CORP., ACCK., MD. marking, has uniform FDE over the receiver and stock, and retains black small parts for contrast. Capacity is 5+1.
