THE BERETTA 688 PERFORMANCE SPORTING is not just a new name and model but completely different from its predecessor, the legendary 686 Sporting. The new Beretta 688 Performance is packed with features that give the shooter advantages over the competition. The laminated stock and forend give the shotgun a stylish and modern look. The adjustable B-Fast stock gives the shooter adjustability for a precision fit, allowing for reduced recoil and comfort, while the ambidextrous palm swell gives the shooter more control.
