The really big deal is that it's US made, which means no 922r frickery. The 1301 and Benellis only come with short 5 round tubes and you're out several hundred bucks extra for a good quality extension kit plus US-made compliance parts to prevent ATF from shooting your dog. Being US-made this thing comes right out of the box with a full-length 7 round tube, and that's pretty uncommon in general, I think the Mossberg 9xx series are the only other good-quality semiautos with that.
Depends where you live and what ends up happening with the gun, in theory prosecutors could pound you in the ass over 922r if you used the gun defensively and that's especially likely in blue states/cities, which also happen to be the places where an HD shotgun makes the most sense. I'd rather not risk it and besides, good upgrades for Italian shotguns are expensive as frick anyway and this thing comes with most of the stuff you'd want, it's arguably more comparable to the Langdon 1301 than a stock one and there's really a big price differential when making that comparison, plus you won't have to wait in line for it.
>in theory prosecutors could pound you in the ass over 922r if you used the gun defensively
How? You know what the magazine spring has stamped on it? You know what the trigger has stamped on it? You know what the follower has stamped on it? Fricking NOTHING. The ONLY "Made in Italy" on the gun is on the receiver. They can't prove you aren't in full 922r compliance because they can't prove a single part of the gun, save the receiver, isn't made in the US.

Your quads trump my dubs but I'd still rather not risk it, and like I say, even if there's no real concern of legal issues on our end it still means the gun can come already equipped the way I'd want it and I don't have to spend hundreds on an extension, spring, clamp, and aftermarket forend or other solution for mounting a light. Seems pretty win-win to me and from everything I've heard the A300 is still a good, reliable action.

If the prosecution cared enough to push 922r they could line up oem part diagrams with your identical unmarked oem parts and use that to present the *reasonable* argument that they are the oem parts and thus imported. It then falls to the defense to prove that they are NOT the oem imported parts.

Burden of proof is never on the defendant. They don't have to present a reasonable argument, they have to prove beyond all reasonable doubt. Saying you bought clone parts in cash at a gun show provides reasonable doubt. A well made clone part should match factory specs exactly anyway.

The judge would still need to determine if imaginary gun show unmarked exact clone part scenarios are enough to to provide a reasonable doubt. It does not prevent the prosecution from submitting that as their evidence even though it could be determined inadmissible.

You're moving goalposts from "it can't be submit as evidence" to "the jury gets to decide". The fact doesn't change that it would be simple for prosecution to get a 922r violation into court. It is up to the judge to decide what evidence makes it to the jury, and then the jury to deliberate on how and if that evidence and the arguments provided for and against it apply to their decision towards the charges.

I never had goalposts of "it can't be submitted as evidence". You could buy all 922r parts and still have it submitted for evidence with the claim you forged the "made in us" markings. The outcome is the same, there isn't proof beyond all reasonable doubt to convict on a 922r violation in any set of circumstances. It's a fundamentally impossible charge to prove with how gun parts are actually marked unless you're doing it at the importer level intercepting whole guns off the boat.

Anything that makes it to the jury is a gamble. Both the prosecution and defense arguments can blow on the spinning coin, but claiming it is unprosecutable assumes that a jury will always flip one way (which they won't) or that it wouldn't be admissible as evidence in the first place.
[...]
[...]
I'd also bear in mind that even if they can't convict you it's still an opportunity for them to turn an otherwise clear-cut defensive shoot into a trial that'll cost you tens of thousands of dollars to beat and potentially frick your life up in other ways too.
This is another not so well hidden truth. The cost of a trial is not just jail time or levied fines, but the cost of being in court itself. Even if you beat the charges, the financial burdens of doing so serve as their own form of rehabilitation that can prevent you from wanting to perform similar actions that resulted in the charges in the first place.

Wait wait wait wait.... wait.... are you anons telling me 922r is more than just an import restriction? We have to keep them compliant even as the end user??
It's effectively an import restriction because it is literally impossible to prove noncompliance even if they took your parts to fricking CERN to analyze.
Technically yeah. Prosecutions for it alone are basically unheard of, but it occasionally gets tacked onto a list of other charges or, more relevant to /k/, there's a possibility that some c**t libtard anti-gun DA will try to use it as a way to frick you over for what's otherwise a legal self-defense shooting.
Maybe, but like I said it also means you can walk into a gun store, spend less than a grand, and walk out with a gun that's already configured the way you'd want it to be, rather than having to order and wait for expensive parts for an already expensive gun to get the same capability. I can see going with an Benelli or 1301 if you're competiting with it or really into tactical shotgun classes or whatever but for the average HD user I see very little reason to deal with the cost and hassles of those other guns.
“Probably” doesn’t cut it.
You claim that they’ll charge you for it. Show me one person who is not an importer getting charged and convicted for it.
I’d wager that even the most anti-gun prosecutors have no idea that 922r is even a thing. And I’m also willing to bet that they aren’t even going to bother charging it because they have better things to do than convince a jury of twelve dumbasses of the minutia of import laws

That's probably fine for the vast majority of people who'd buy it, though. 99.9% of people are likely to stick it in a closet or under the bed in case of a break-in, maybe 25 or 30% will take it to the range a few times a year to stay somewhat proficient and make sure it still works, and a tiny fraction might compete with it and they'll still probably be totally fine. It might not hold up as well to being dragged through a desert by doorkickers for 15 years straight but that's not really relevant to any of us.

Maybe as much SHOOTING but not nearly as much USE. Bashing the gun against rocks and the ground and shit. Shooting guns isn't the thing that wears them out most in the field.
There's a difference between being built to withstand hard use and being built to withstand Marines.
It's not "free", it's because it uses an entirely different operating system anon. The inertial system requires a decent amount of heft flying to work, a gas system requires a lot less mass. You could replace the entire inventory of benelli m4s with A400s and reliability probably wouldn't even wiggle, if not actually slightly improve just because of niche cases where the inertia system couldn't get quite enough of a firm backing to recoil properly against. This is arguing over niches when no significant difference exists here
if you got a deal, or a good as hell gunshop with a based as frick owner who is giving you a deal and really looking out for you.
1301's are getting to be a real motherfricker to find right now. its easier to find a Benelli M4 with doodads and other such crumpets.

99% of all guns in the US would be below your moronic standards. Nothing screams poor AND inexperienced like someone fussing over economy models or snubbing their nose at them.

it's not even really an "economy" model 1301. The A300 has been in production for quite some time for about the same MSRP if not less. This is better thought of as a "tactical" A300. There really aren't many changes to the very well-proven a300 design, which has done quite well with upland and waterfowl hunters/clay shooters over the years. All they did was bake-in the Modified Choke, add on a ring sight/post/rail, use a full length magtube, and that is essentially it. The A300 already had very solid bones for a tactical shotgun, it just wasn't Beretta's focus to make them BE tactical for the same reason they don't make a tactical A400. Sure, they COULD, but why even bother? It's a hunting shotgun that's too expensive for most to bother with.
TFB TV tested the most premium turkish pump action they could get their hands on and it still managed to shit the bed while the Maverick 88 passed the same test without a single issue.
Pretty much all the Turkshit brought in by fly-by-night importers is shit. Keep in mind other reputable manufacturers bring in Turkshit too that isn’t crap. CZ, Mossberg, Savage/Stevens, Weatherby and Beretta/Benelli as Stoeger all bring in Turkshit. Pretty much all of these are $500+. The dangerous shit is when you buy a $200 shotgun with a feature list that you wouldn’t find in a shotgun that costs 3x as much. Your Sizzlesazzlemas Black Eagle Goku Tactical imported by XYZ importer isn’t going to be worth its weight in scrap.
What Beretta/Benelli guns are turkshit? Not doubting, just curious since I've got a Nova, which is afaik Benelli's cheapest gun, and it's still all Italian.

The blink system is sweet, can the a300 hold 8+1? I like the 1301, basically a tactical a400. The a300 is alright, but there's a definite weight and quality difference between the American a300 and Italian a400s. I imagine the a300 will be a good competitor to the 940, but I doubt it will be as lightweight or smooth as a 1301 or m4
Piece of shit. How is this a new gun? It's the same as a bunch of other guns that have existed for decades. You can't keep letting them pull shit like this on you. It's the same fricking gun they're marketing as something new and innovative...
>a slightly worse 1301 >that comes with a bunch of stuff that you were going to buy aftermarket anyway
I'm not going to buy one, but lots of people who were turned off by the 1301's price point and need for aftermarket gubbins definitely will
ah yes finally a gentleman's shotgun with mlok, ir reduction, neat milling, and bearable recoil
might have to pick up this archaic technology for once
to think I even thought of a shoulder destroying
KS7 for my collection heh scoff
It's just a better stock setup overall, comes with ghost rings and a receiver rail for optics, has an M-LOK forend where the Mossberg only has slots on the barrel clamp (gives you more options and is really nice if you want to run a remote switch), it's slightly cheaper, and it's a Beretta shotgun so the ergos are probably god-tier. All that aside it's also just nice having choice.
the frick? it looks exactly the same as the 1301.
the 1301 has a slightly different locking system
This apparently has more creature comforts like mlok and quick attack points

I'm not going to buy one, but lots of people who were turned off by the 1301's price point and need for aftermarket gubbins definitely will
biggest thing is probably the receiver cut-out for quad loading
ah yes finally a gentleman's shotgun with mlok, ir reduction, neat milling, and bearable recoil
might have to pick up this archaic technology for once
to think I even thought of a shoulder destroying
KS7 for my collection heh scoff
What does this gun do that the Mossberg 940 doesn't?
It's just a better stock setup overall, comes with ghost rings and a receiver rail for optics, has an M-LOK forend where the Mossberg only has slots on the barrel clamp (gives you more options and is really nice if you want to run a remote switch), it's slightly cheaper, and it's a Beretta shotgun so the ergos are probably god-tier. All that aside it's also just nice having choice.
How much furniture compatibility is there between the Ax00 guns and the 1301?
