The Ten Commandments of Gun Safety:
1. Always keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction.
2. Guns should be unloaded when not actually in use.
3. Don't rely on your gun's "safety". Treat every gun as if it can fire at any time.
4. Be sure of your target and what's beyond it. Once you pull the trigger you can't stop it
5. Always Use correct ammunition.
6. If your gun fails to fire when the trigger is pulled, HANDLE WITH CARE. Keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction and get adult help.
7. Always wear eye and ear protection when shooting.
8. Be sure the barrel is clear of obstructions before shooting.
9. Don't alter or modify your gun, and DO have your gun serviced regularly.
10. Learn the mechanical and handling characteristics of the firearm you are using.
Firearm Cleaning:
Regular cleaning is important in order for your gun to operate correctly and safely. Taking proper care of it will also maintain its value and extend its life. Your gun should be cleaned every time that it is used.
A gun brought out of prolonged storage should also be cleaned before shooting. Accumulated moisture and dirt, or solidified grease and oil, can prevent the gun from operating properly.
Before cleaning your gun, make absolutely sure that it is unloaded. The gun's action should be open during the cleaning process. Also, be sure that no ammunition is present in the cleaning area.

Important of shotgun chock...:
How can I identify which choke tubes I have?
Beretta choke tubes are categorized into three different types in order to accommodate the three different barrel configurations offered by the factory. These choke tube types are Mobilchoke, Optima-Choke and Optima-Choke Plus. For your comparison, clicking on any highlighted headings below will link you to a picture of the specific choke tube.

Mobilchoke

Mobilchoke tubes are matched to the Italian proof house bore size for barrels and supplied in 12, 20, 28 and 410 gauges. Mobilchoke tubes have been used since the introduction of screw-in choke tubes in the Beretta shotgun line. Mobilchoke tubes will be found in both field and competition shotguns.

Optima-Choke
In the year 2000 Beretta introduced the 12-gauge Optima barrel design into some of our competition shotguns. This new barrel utilized a larger internal bore dimension known to some as “back-boring” and required a new choke tube design to give the proper constrictions. The Optima barrels can be identified by locating the letters “OB” stamped next to the barrel gauge stamp. The Optima-Choke design also featured a longer internal taper, just ahead of the choke constriction, making the overall length of this tube longer than the original Mobilchoke tube. A key fact is that Optima-Choke tubes will only be found on 12 gauge competition Optima shotguns.
Optima-Choke Plus

With the introduction of the model 391 Xtrema shotguns in 2003 the Optima barrel configuration was added into the 391 12-gauge line of field shotguns. In order to handle a higher volume of steel shot shells used in field hunting, the Optima-Choke tube was revised and manufactured with a thicker wall size. This revised choke tube was named the Optima-Choke Plus and featured the same Optima-Choke internal dimensions and performance but has a larger outside diameter and revised thread location. A key fact is that Optima-Choke Plus tubes will only be found on 12 gauge field Optima shotguns (*except 471 Silver Hawk).

Other specifics
Each of the above choke tube types is designed for use with a specific type barrel and as such features different thread locations and external measurements, none can be interchanged with the other Beretta choke types. Every Beretta choke tube has information engraved on the tube to identifying the manufacturer (PB), the constriction (F, IM, M, IC, CYL), the approval for steel shot use (SP) and the choke type (Optima-Choke, Optima-Choke Plus)

Within each of the three choke types we offer different variations of length and finish. The length variations available for each type is flush fit or extended choke tubes. Most field shotguns are equipped with flush chokes. Sporting and s***t shotguns will be equipped with extended tubes. The Beretta factory may supply trap guns with either choke variation as determined. Within the extended choke variations we offer two finishes. Since the extended chokes are exposed past the shotgun muzzle we offer choke tubes with a black non-reflective finish for hunters. A bright finish tube with colored bands is offered for competitive shooters, this band allows easy identification of the tube constriction.

It should be mentioned that two other choke types saw a limited use. Supplied with some 302 and 303 models shotguns was an early version of the Mobilchoke where the tube body was not threaded but smooth. This type tube was dropped into the muzzle end of the barrel and secured by collar threaded onto the barrel muzzle. This tube type is no longer available from Beretta. The second type was offered on an early version of the DT-10 shotgun made specifically for trap, this shotgun was known as the Vandalia model. These tubes are similar in size to the Optima choke flush tube but are not interchangeable with them. We still carry replacement tubes for this specific model.

Identifying which choke comes with our shotgunsWithin our specification charts, under the choke column heading, you will find a code that identifies the choke type, quantity and constrictions that are supplied with each shotgun. The following summary is used to decode the listings supplied in our product catalog specification charts.

The Wi******er Model 94 lever-action repeating rifle that is directly related to the Wi******er Model 1873, "The Gun that Won the West." The Model 94 features button-rifled barrels, smooth walnut stocks and steel receivers. The rifle was created by legendary designer John M. Browning for Wi******er in 1893.
The .30-30 Wi******er/.30 Wi******er Center Fire (7.62x51R) cartridge was first marketed in early 1895 for the Wi******er Model 1894 lever-action rifle. The .30-30 (thirty-thirty), as it is most commonly known, was the USA's first small-bore, sporting rifle cartridge designed for smokeless powder.
Today, the gun fits a variety of cartridges and is primarily used for hunting, especially whitetail deer. Many consider it a great rifle for training beginners, because it helps build the necessary skills – loading, handling, operating and shooting – to be a safe shooter and hunter.
When you have Wi******er you don't just get a great gun. You get the trust and confidence
The .30 Wi******er Smokeless first appeared in Wi******er's catalog No. 55, dated August 1895. As chambered in the Wi******er Model 1894 carbine and rifle, it was also known as .30 Wi******er Center Fire or .30 WCF. When the cartridge was chambered in the Marlin Model 1893 rifle, rival gunmaker Marlin used the designation .30-30 or .30-30 Smokeless. The added -30 stands for the standard load of 30 grains (1.9 g) of early smokeless powder, according to late-19th century American naming conventions for black powder-filled cartridges. Both Marlin and Union Metallic Cartridge Co. also dropped the Wi******er appellation, as they did not want to put the name of rival Wi******er on their products.[3]
The modern designation of .30-30 Wi******er was arrived at by using Marlin's variation of the name with the Wi******er name appended as originator of the cartridge, though .30 WCF is still seen occasionally. This designation also probably serves to avoid consumer confusion with the different, yet similarly shaped .30-40 Krag, which has been referred to as ".30 US" and ".30 Army".
