Beretta Goes Ultralight, or we should say, Ultraleggero

Those Italian shotgun experts in Gardone have flexed their way to another interesting modern design with classic styling: the Ultraleggero. A 12 gauge double-barreled over-and-under design whose selling point is that it uses a steel receiver and barrels but still hits the scales with a fighting weight in the 6-pound range, as you may have guessed, “Ultraleggero” means “Ultralight” in Italian.
