The 686 Silver Pigeon I B-Fast Sporting is Beretta's 12 gauge over-and-under for clay targets, with 30-inch ventilated-rib barrels, 3-inch chambers and a two-shell break action. The engraved steel receiver is set off by blue/black metalwork, and the European walnut stock carries the B-Fast adjustable comb so the shooter can set it where their own face wants it. It is configured for right-handed shooters, with a 14.75-inch length of pull, a front bead, a manual safety, and an all-up weight of 8.2 pounds at 50 inches overall.

This gun is aimed at the North Carolina shooter who spends weekends on sporting clays, skeet or trap and wants a stock that fits without a trip to the stockmaker. Thirty-inch barrels and 8.2 pounds give a steady swing on crossing targets, and the 3-inch chambers mean it will also handle field loads if you take it out of the clay grounds. The break action makes it simple to show clear between stations.
