I am lookin at a used Beretta shotgun, Beretta AL391 Urika ???
What I was wondering is - when I went to look up info on the gun I could only find info on the Urika 2, What I would like to know is differences between the 2 and how to tell which is which.
Anyone know??
 
As far as I know the gas piston up front is a different design that allows you to clean it alot
easier or it shoots clearer. I have the urika 391 sporting and the worst part is cleaing the
cylinder housing that is part of the barrel. But the gun is a nice shooter.
 
In the 391 world, there are three model names "Urika", "Teknys", and "Xtrema." The newest versions have a suffix of "2" and feature minor improvements.

1999: AL 391 Urika introduced (some books say as a 2000 model year)
2001: Overboring added as option(?)
2002: Xtrema introduced (3.5" chamber), last year for Urika Gold
2003: Teknys introduced, all Urikas "Optima-Bore" overbored
2005: Xtrema2 introduced
2007: Urika2 introduced, has self-cleaning piston, Xtra-wood introduced

"Gold" Trim is upgraded cosmetics, including deluxe checkered walnut and gold finish highlights on receiver.

I haven't figured out how Teknys was suppose to be different the Urika. Xtrema is the 3.5" chamber, but Urika and Teknys are both 3" chamber (in 12g).
