The 687 Silver Pigeon Grade I Sporting configuration is identified by the SPORTING barrel marking and 680-series low-profile action. The receiver wears a coin finish with factory floral/scroll engraving, round medallions on the flanks, and an engraved trigger guard with the Beretta logo. The barrels carry the P. BERETTA – MADE IN ITALY legend, and PB/star markings appear on the flush choke tubes.
The 28 inch barrels use a ventilated, matted rib with a front bead and are threaded for interchangeable chokes. As configured, the top barrel is Improved Cylinder and the bottom barrel is Skeet, aligning with the sporting setup. Capacity is two rounds.
