Anyone else seen the new prototype Beretta that Jessica Rossi is shooting this year. See it says CDT 2017 on the action.
New prototype Beretta?

I can think of a few who would benefit from having their gun wrapped around their neck's too :angel:

Do Beretta set out to make their guns look as tacky as possible these days ? I’ve got nicer looking wood on the dining room floor ...
Well it is different... Perazzi style lockup... Whatever next!
Hope it doesn't have those troublesome switchable ejectors

Don't know why Beretta would want to produce a perazzi clone. We have enough of those already. The only gun that should have a perazzi lock up is a perazzi. Berretta have their distinctive lock up in the ASE / dt series.
Won't be getting one of these. Would rather have a real perazzi not a copy.
Hate that crappy looking rubber top lever too.
Stick to my DT11 with half decent wood thanks.

Maybe Jessica threatened to return to Perazzi and Beretta knocked this up to keep her on the books???

That lock up design although similar to Perazzi, beretta already make one like this in their SO10 model.
Also, it’s a boss action originally, not Perazzi.

Perazzi perfected the Boss action! Boss never got the gape right!

Oooh. I like it.
I'm going to reserve judgement till we've seen a few more pics and been told what it is first AND the market segment it's being aimed at but will say looking at their current clay specific line up that both the low and mid (692 - DT11) are ripe for improvement and an injection of reality checks.

It's still looks like is has the head of a coach-bolt sticking out of he side of the action - yeah I know it isn't really a coach-bolt but it's still an example of a cost-cutting engineering when much neater approaches are available...crikey I looked at a Bettinsoli without the eyesore dome heads on the sides of the action at the Shooting Show this morning £825 brand new, list price. Grumble over... :smile:

As tho a different gun will somehow change the world. If it is for the high end of the competition market then best of luck. Fortunately for me, for many reasons, it is right at the who GAF level. Used to the lines of a MX8 makes this new thing look somewhat strange. But that could just be me.
Just a case of someone who was a brilliant shooter with a perfect gun who changed their gun for money and is longing for the previous gun's feel? Perazzi only make 7 guns per day and nearly everyone of them is sold before they are made... I don't think they will be sitting worrying about what Beretta or Kemen are doing. It is a bit naff though having to change a gun because the shooter you hired really wants to shoot the gun the had before :lol:

Oh, puhleeze! We all know that a person of your experience and intelligence would only make disparaging remarks of that sort in jest. Your poorly concealed admiration of things Perazzi is too well known for you to make such comments and expect to be believed.
HAHAHA - good one there, Old Man!!
