Default Beretta A400 Extreme

One helluva deal on just about the best semi-auto in the under $3000k range.

$1647.77

https://www.dantesports.com/en/shop/...-grass-blades/

$2249.99 at Cabelas--just waiting to hear if they will price match.

Was looking for a gently used A300 for a back up, but this was just too good to pass up. Absolutely love it--cycles everything from 2-3/4"--#7.5 to 3.5"--BBB--the best shotgun I have ever used or had.

They have the black model on at under $1400.

Bashaw Sports had the Camo on for $1539, but they sold out quick.

I bought the black one. Was supposed to be delivered today, but alas it wasn't. I sold my SBE2 after one season. Nice gun, but too many Benelli "clicks" for my liking. When you are in your 50s, on your back in a Chinese Torture Chamber (aka layout blind), it is hard to always get a consistent mount. I bet I went to pull the trigger 5x last fall and nothing happened. Thankfully, Elk would usually drop enough for both of us. LOL.

Be aware you’re not comparing apples to apples... Cabelas is selling the new A400 Extreme “Plus”. Beretta recently rolled out the new “Plus” model which features some imporovements/mods from the older A400 Extreme. Looks like these stores are just cleaning out the old inventory as the new “Plus” models are arriving.

Check out The Gun Dealer down east, they have the A400 Extreme in black with kick off and hard case for $1398

If you don't need the supposed improvements, why not save $600? Personally, I am not a fan of stepped ribs, so I prefer the older A400.

I agree 100%... I have had the A400 Extreme for a number of years and love it.

Just thought the OP should know why Cabelas is not likely to price match.

Forget about Cabela's & buy from Canadian stores
The A400 is a great gun just like 99% of beretta' guns.

Good luck!
