Beretta 1301 Mod 2 - What's Up With Canadian Versions?

Thanks...I am assuming we will have no issues of things being stuck at customs if ordered directly from the US. I wonder why Canada (Stoeger) doesn't sell these.

I ordered a mod2 handguard 2 months ago & magpul mag adapters for the Beretta BRX 1 last month had my family ship it, no problems.
 
I haven't had any issues as is...but wondering if extended bolt release and enhanced charging handles were found to be worthwhile upgrades by those who did them?

Mine has been flawless.

Looks like the bolt is possibly not seating all the way forward. Are you using low powered ammunition?

Hopefully it's just a break-in issue. Try cyling the action over and over a few hundred times To wear it in.... then drip some oil into the action.

The gas system isn't cycling the action. Field strip, clean, lube, reassemble. The gun didn't come from the factory like that, someone's been fiddle fking with it.

Just got one of these things. Was hoping it would be what Beretta pictured.

As I understand it, the big features are:

1. Improved trigger
2. Improved lifter
3. MLok Handguard
4. Longer mag tube

Based on what I see so far, it looks like we just got the improved trigger and lifter only.

Is this like a Canadian thing where we get butchered down versions of the US products? I guess the tube extension may be C21-related? I thought that round limiter was for detachable mags, not tube mags, unless it's due to the semi-auto nature of the action.

I also don't get why they would not have included the MLOK handguard/foreend - that seems to be part of the allure in getting this.

Otherwise, this is essentially a 1301 Gen 2 more than a Mod 2.

Am I misunderstanding something here?

It's what we're here for.

Bro, I also noticed your red dot. Believe me when I tell you that I'm only trying to help, that dot is too big, too heavy. There are videos with guys running same and similar dots and the whole deal yeets off the 1301 under recoil. The picatinny rail is only held to the receiver with a couple of screws, and the receiver is aluminum. That 3 or 4 ounces standing that high imparts leverage under recoil.

The fix is a small pistol red dot, or one of the designated dots that incorporate a mount, eliminating the rail (co-witness).

I don't think it's a Beretta or a 1301 thing. The poster here says the pistol dot was properly torqued, but note the deformation on the impact shield where it mates with the mount. "Something" was off there. I believe the problem is the fasteners, not necessarily what it's fastened to.
