Tennessee Police Department Approves Beretta A300 Patrol

Beretta USA is pleased to announce that a major metropolitan Police Department in Tennessee has approved, and begun to field, the A300 Ultima Patrol. The first delivery will be followed by others in the coming months. The department requested a special variant, featuring a reduced length 16" barrel. This makes the shotgun more compact for movement in confined quarters and improves accessibility from the police cruisers.

"We are honored to have yet another win in our home state of Tennessee, supporting our Law Enforcement customers with our shotguns", said Stefano Itri, Vice President of BDT Sales, "I am confident that they will be well served by our A300 and look forward to a long-lasting relationship with the department. We take a great deal of pride in serving Law Enforcement personnel with our products all over the US".

The Beretta A300 Patrol is designed to meet the needs of the modern law enforcement officer. With a special 16" barrel and a compact overall length, this lightweight shotgun is fast handling yet controllable. Magazine capacity is reduced to 5+1 due to the shorter barrel (standard is 7+1). This reliable, field-proven, semi-automatic shotgun features an oversized charging handle, large textured bolt release, and an oversized reversible safety button.
