There is a reason the Silver Pigeon has been the default answer to "what over under should I buy" for more than 35 years. The Beretta 686 Silver Pigeon I builds on that reputation with the compact, low-profile 686 action, which locks up with two conical lugs set at mid-action for serious strength without the bulk. That low receiver puts your eye closer to the plane of your support hand, and pointing this gun feels natural from the first mount. The newest generation adds a redesigned top lever that opens and closes with noticeably less effort, along with a polished stainless steel trigger and refined receiver balance.
A 20 gauge with 30 inch tubes is a sweet spot a lot of folks overlook. You get the smooth, deliberate swing of a longer barrel with the lighter carry weight and softer shoulder of the smaller bore, right around 7 pounds. The vent rib barrels are Beretta's cold hammer forged Steelium with lengthened forcing cones, designed for dense, even patterns with reduced recoil and muzzle rise. Chambered for 3 inch shells and fed through five included Optima HP choke tubes, from Cylinder up to Full, this gun transitions from the skeet field to the pheasant field without missing a beat.
The engraved silver receiver wears rich floral scrollwork that now extends across the receiver tail and hinge pins, set against blued barrels for a classic bi-tone look. The select European walnut stock carries an oil finish with crisp checkering and a schnabel forend, and the 14.38 inch length of pull fits a wide range of builds right out of the case.
This is the gun people buy once and hand down later. It ships in a fitted hard case with the full set of chokes, so you are ready for the range or the field the day you pick it up. If you have been waiting for the right excuse to step into an Italian over under, this is a strong place to land.
Both, and that is the whole point of this gun. The 30 inch barrels give you the smooth swing clay shooters want, while the roughly 7 pound weight and 20 gauge chambering keep it comfortable to carry on upland hunts. With five choke tubes included, you can set it up for skeet in the morning and pheasants in the afternoon.
This model ships with five Optima HP flush-mount choke tubes: Full, Improved Modified, Modified, Improved Cylinder, and Cylinder. That covers just about every field and target scenario you will run into. Additional Optima HP chokes are widely available if you want extended or specialty constrictions.
Yes, the 3 inch chambers handle both 2.75 inch and 3 inch 20 gauge shells without issue. Most people will run standard 2.75 inch target and field loads for the majority of their shooting, then step up to 3 inch loads when they need extra payload for birds. The Steelium barrels with lengthened forcing cones pattern well with a wide range of shells.
Beretta updated the 686 Silver Pigeon I with a redesigned top lever that makes opening and closing the action noticeably smoother, plus a polished stainless steel trigger and improved receiver balance. The floral engraving is also richer than before, now extending across the receiver tail and onto the hinge pins. The core 686 action with its dual conical locking lugs remains the same proven design that has anchored this line for decades.
