Description
There's a reason the Beretta 1301 keeps coming up whenever people talk about serious defensive shotguns, and the crew at Langdon Tactical has built their reputation on making good Berettas even better. The LTT1301HBMBLK starts life as a 1301 Mod 2 with Beretta's Pro Lifter and semi-flat trigger, then gets the full Langdon treatment. That means an in-house LTT Trigger Job for a smoother, more consistent pull that breaks a touch lighter than factory, plus an LTT Super Duty front sight that picks up fast when things get busy. This particular configuration adds the LTT heat shield over the 18.5-inch black oxide barrel, a Magpul stock, and Beretta's Patrol forend.
Why the LTT 1301 Earns Its Keep
The 1301's gas system is famous for how quickly it cycles, and follow-up shots come faster than most semi-autos in this class. Capacity sits at 7+1 with Beretta's factory magazine tube, and the 3-inch chamber handles everything from light target loads to full-power buckshot. The black anodized aluminum receiver wears a Picatinny rail up top, so mounting a red dot is simple if irons aren't your thing. The barrel is threaded for Beretta's Optima choke system and ships with Cylinder and Improved Cylinder chokes, which covers the patterns most people want from a defensive gun while leaving the door open for other setups.
Built for Slings, Lights, and Real Use
Langdon thought through the details here. The barrel clamp has QD sling mounting points built in, and the Magpul stock includes a footman's loop, so getting a two-point sling on this gun takes minutes, not a parts order. The heat shield keeps your support hand happy during long range sessions, and the Patrol forend gives you solid purchase when running the gun hard.
What Comes With the Langdon Tactical 1301
Every LTT 1301 ships in a Condition 1 hard-sided case, which is a nice step up from the cardboard box most shotguns arrive in. Between the trigger work, the sights, and the furniture, this is the setup a lot of folks spend months piecing together themselves. Here it's done right, tested, and ready to go.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does Langdon Tactical change on this Beretta 1301?
Langdon starts with a Beretta 1301 Mod 2 that already has the Pro Lifter and semi-flat trigger, then performs their in-house LTT Trigger Job for a smoother, slightly lighter pull. They also add the LTT Super Duty front sight, an LTT heat shield, a Magpul stock, and Beretta's Patrol forend. It's essentially the build many owners piece together on their own, done by the shop that knows these guns best.
Can I mount a red dot on the LTT 1301?
Yes. The black anodized receiver includes an integrated Picatinny rail, so mounting a red dot is straightforward. The LTT Super Duty front sight works great on its own, but the rail gives you options if you prefer an optic.
How do I attach a sling to this shotgun?
Sling mounting is already handled. The barrel clamp has QD sling points built in, and the Magpul stock ships with a footman's loop at the rear. A standard two-point sling attaches without any extra hardware hunting.
Does the LTT 1301 accept different choke tubes?
It does. The 18.5-inch barrel is threaded for Beretta's Optima choke system and ships with Cylinder and Improved Cylinder tubes. That covers typical defensive buckshot patterns, and you can swap in other Optima chokes if you want to tighten things up for slugs or specialty loads.
