Beretta USA has  introduced the Beretta A400 L Field, the latest evolution of the A400 platform. Combining the competition-proven performance of the A400 action with refined aesthetics and premium craftsmanship, the A400 L Field delivers for  hunters and clay target enthusiasts alike.

Built for shooters who appreciate both beauty and performance, the A400 L Field features a nickel-plated receiver adorned with intricate scroll and floral engravings, paired with a highly figured Grade 2.5+ walnut stock and fore-end. Designed with enlarged checkering surfaces and an ambidextrous palm swell, the new stock configuration provides comfort, control and instinctive handling in the field or on the range.

"The A400 platform has become one of the most trusted and proven semi-automatic shotguns in the world," said Caleb McMillen, Beretta USA senior product manager for long guns. "With the new A400 L Field, we wanted to create a shotgun that delivers the advanced performance shooters expect from the A400 while elevating the craftsmanship and visual appeal for those who appreciate a truly refined sporting firearm."

At the heart of the A400 L Field is Beretta's B-Link gas operating system, engineered to deliver up to 36-percent faster follow-up shots while reducing recoil and enhancing overall shooting comfort and stability. The system is paired with a DLC-coated bolt assembly and enlarged operating controls, including an oversized bolt handle, extended bolt release and enlarged loading port. The A400 L Field also incorporates Beretta's Steelium Plus barrel technology, designed to optimize shot patterns while significantly reducing felt recoil for smoother swings and follow-ups.
