All-New Beretta 1301 Selected as Tactical Shotgun For AL Department of Public Safety
Accokeek, MD. - Beretta USA Corp. announced today that the Alabama Department of Public Safety has chosen Beretta’s new Model 1301 Tactical as the Agency’s primary semiautomatic shotgun.
DPS has placed an order for 657 units of the Beretta 1301 Tactical Shotgun.
‘DPS has honored us with its trust,” said Stefano Itri, Director of Law Enforcement and International Sales at Beretta USA.
“The Model 1301 is one of the latest embodiments of our dedication to our tactical customers.

We are proud to know that the Beretta Model 1301 Tactical shotgun will be relied upon by DPS officers.”
Launched at the annual Las Vegas SHOT Show in January, 2014, the 1301 Tactical is a semiautomatic shotgun specifically designed to meet the needs of tactical shooters such as law-enforcement professionals.
