The receiver underside is marked "P. Beretta 682 Gold" in gold-filled script with the Beretta trident-in-wreath emblem, and the action is the model’s signature low-profile O/U boxlock. Italian Banco di Gardone proof marks and "MADE IN ITALY" confirm origin and proof history. The Sporting series configuration is correctly noted on the barrels.
The 30 in barrels are monoblock construction in "EXCELSIOR – HIGH STRENGTH ALLOYED STEEL" with a ventilated top rib, ventilated side ribs, a white front bead, and a small mid-bead. Chambering is marked "12 GA. 2 3/4 AND 3 IN. SHOT SHELLS" and "CAM. 76." Both tubes are stamped "18,4" for bore diameter, and the barrel weight stamp reads "KG1,490."
The interchangeable choke system aligns with Beretta/Benelli Mobilchoke compatibility. The sale also includes Heritage Gunsmithing (Ken Eyster) custom flush-profile choke tubes.
The stock set is checkered walnut with a pistol-grip buttstock and a narrow sporting forend with a Schnabel tip. Length of pull measures 15.0 in. Kickeze recoil pad installed with a metal spacer for added length and recoil management. Controls include a manual top-tang sliding safety and a single, gold-colored trigger.
Capacity is two rounds via the break-action over/under design. The barrels are marked "SPORTING," matching the series intent and rib configuration for clay-target applications.
