July 28, 2026, Accokeek, MD – Beretta USA is excited to announce the launch of the A400 Solo, a new semi-automatic shotgun engineered for hunters who demand uncompromising reliability, speed and performance in the harshest conditions. Built on Beretta’s proven A400 platform and packed with the company’s latest advancements, the A400 Solo delivers faster cycling, softer recoil and exceptional ballistic performance in a rugged, purpose-built hunting shotgun.
Designed to thrive where conditions are at their toughest, the A400 Solo combines Beretta’s innovative B-LINK® Pro gas-operating system, Steelium® barrel technology and Kick-Off® Plus recoil reduction system into one dependable platform. Whether chasing waterfowl through flooded timber or walking upland fields, the A400 Solo is built to keep hunters focused on the shot, not their equipment.
“Our goal with the A400 Solo was to build a shotgun that hunters can rely on in any environment,” said Caleb McMillen, Beretta USA Sr. Product Manager for Long Guns. “Every feature was designed to help hunters perform with confidence, from faster cycling and reduced recoil to easier maintenance and legendary Beretta barrel performance. The A400 Solo is built for those who refuse to let the elements dictate their hunt.”
Key features of the new Beretta A400 Solo include:
- B-LINK® Pro Gas System – Beretta’s fastest, cleanest and most reliable gas-operating system to date, cycling up to 36% faster and running 46% cleaner while reliably handling everything from light target loads to heavy magnum hunting ammunition.
- Kick-Off® Plus Recoil Reduction System – Reduces felt recoil by up to 40%, minimizing muzzle rise and vibration for faster follow-up shots and greater comfort in the field.
- Steelium® Cold Hammer-Forged Barrel – Features an extended 80 mm forcing cone that delivers exceptional ballistics, dense and consistent shot patterns, and reliable performance across a variety of hunting loads.
- B-Lok® Magazine Cap – Allows quick, tool-free disassembly for faster cleaning and maintenance in the field.
- OptimaChoke® HP Extended Chokes – Optimized for consistent patterns and versatility across hunting applications.
- B-Uffer® Recoil Pad – Durable, weather-resistant design that enhances recoil absorption while standing up to harsh hunting conditions.
- Enhanced Hunting Ergonomics – Includes a lightweight aerospace-grade aluminum receiver, adjustable stock shims and spacers, and an enhanced reversible safety for a customized fit and intuitive operation.
