The Beretta A400 Xtreme Plus J42XN18 raises the standard for 12-gauge semi-automatic shotguns. Chambered for 2¾”, 3″, and 3.5″ shells, it cycles every load smoothly and reliably with Beretta’s proven Blink gas-operated system, delivering exceptional speed and dependability in any environment.
Its 28″ Steelium Plus barrel is precision-crafted from Beretta’s tri-alloy steel, producing superior shot patterning and reduced muzzle rise. The step rib and fiber-optic front sight allow for fast, natural target alignment, while the extended charging handle, oversized bolt release, and enlarged loading port make operation effortless even when wearing gloves.
The Kick-Off® Mega recoil reduction system cuts felt recoil by up to 70%, letting you stay on target for faster follow-ups. The Gore Optifade Timber Cerakote finish gives complete camouflage coverage and extreme weather resistance — perfect for flooded timber or open marsh setups.
