    What I'm hearing is:
    A 1301 is about the same price as an A300 WITH a Fighting Shotgun class thrown in.
    I think I'll just deal with the minimal recoil increase.

      💯 A300 is exactly what I have been looking for.

    FYI - The most recent Beretta 1301 "Gen 3" comes with the new Pro-Lifter, a semi-flat trigger, the A300 forend, and a 7rd fixed extension tube.

      @@donhinkle3693 He's referring to the bolt knob. It's still the same, but that's definitely not a deal-breaker. Some thread locker, and you're good to go. zero issues.

      But it still has the same old loading port and not the newer, scalloped one like on the A300. I have no idea why they'd implement all the new changes and leave out this obvious one. I guess I'll hold out for the "Mod 3." Until then, more than happy to pick up the A300

      I own the a300 all decked out and it’s fantastic, for the price difference I went with the 300 it still shoots all ammo I’ve put through it, I have a few videos on my channel

    The 1301 has the recoil spring in the forearm while the A300 has the recoil spring in the buttstock...giving the 1301 an advantage when it comes to aftermarket buttstocks (it can use the Magpul stock). Also, the 1301 Tactical has been around longer and thus has more aftermarket support overall than the A300 Ultima Patrol. I think that BOTH are the best shotgun on the market for the money. So the question of which one to get has a simple answer...which one can you afford?

    • @JamesYeagerofTacticalResponse
      @JamesYeagerofTacticalResponse  5 місяців тому +1

      well, "afford" is tricky. If you can afford the 1301, that means you can afford an A300 and enough ammo to run it through a class. If clones took those 2 options then had to fight each other with their shotgun, I know who I'm betting on🤷‍♂️

      @@JamesYeagerofTacticalResponse,
      If getting the 1301 leaves one with no budget left for sling, ammo & training, that person cannot afford the 1301.

      The recoil system used by the A300 was what they used before they developed the system for the 1301.

    • @bullpup33
      @bullpup33 2 місяці тому

      The 1301 is a better shotgun. The real question is how/why are you running it? If it's just gonna sit there most of the time then just get a A300. That includes taking a class with the occasional range day. However, if you're gonna run it hard then maybe 1301 has the advantage in recoil management and rapid follow-ups. Not to mention you can customize it better.

    Nice comparison! I liked that you had 2 different test subjects, one a less experienced shooter than the other, to get their impressions of the 2 models. I'm trying to decide between the A300UP and the 1301. I've been leaning towards the A300UP and your video may have made me lean that way even more. But considering the 1301, what are your feelings on a sport stock vs. a pistol grip stock?

    Cheap overpriced plastic junk vs an even more overpriced plastic junk.
    For competition they might work fine…for serious use get a benelli m4
    And no…DO NOT KEEP YOUR THUMB STRAIGHT you’re asking for bites…keep your thumb bent to 90 degrees when loading shells
