I handled one at Ian Coleys about a month ago, to look at not a lot different to the DT10, but I believe they have new barrels and a better trigger pull.

Bit of a promo vid here for it. Not massive on detail though. In Italian with English subtitles http://www.televisionet.tv/en/.....retta-dt11
And Vic Harker "looks at Beretta's Sensational Overbored Trap Gun - the DT11" in the latest Pull.
Not sure I like the blue painted line round the action on a 6.5k gun. the black painted line on the webley sporter looked pikey enough and that was a pikey gun /wp-content/forum-smileys/sf-frown.gif/wp-content/forum-smileys/sf-frown.gif/wp-content/forum-smileys/sf-frown.gif
Just read the Pull article and I have to say not keen on the overbored all the way through thing! In other words I hate things being fixed when they ain't broke.One really good thing is that in time the used DT10 prices will go down a bit and I will be helping myself to one /wp-content/forum-smileys/sf-smile.gif/wp-content/forum-smileys/sf-cool.gif.

I was working for a Dealer on Saturday and he mentioned that DT11 had ' issues' with the barrels, failing proof or something. Anyone heard anything? /wp-content/forum-smileys/sf-frown.gif/wp-content/forum-smileys/sf-frown.gif/wp-content/forum-smileys/sf-frown.gif
I have tried to find out more, but it as all gone very quiet.My understanding is that the British Proof houses have 'reservations' about the bore size, but as Beretta prove their own guns and we in the EEC recognise EEC Proof Houses, Beretta can do that legally. But if the maximum bore size allowed for International competition is 12 gauge and the bore size for a DT11 is a nominal 11 bore how can they do that? According to Vic Harker in the Pull magazine article the bore is 19.48mm forward of the forcing cones tapering to 18.4 behind the chokes, but the barrels are stamped as 18.4mm, which I would think cannot be the case 9inches from the breech as required by Proof. I am sure that the manufacturers are smart enough to not have made a mistake, but I cannot help but think that maybe we have smoke and mirrors being used./wp-content/forum-smileys/sf-smile.gif/wp-content/forum-smileys/sf-smile.gif/wp-content/forum-smileys/sf-smile.gif

I've heard the same thing recently....will look into it./wp-content/forum-smileys/sf-wink.gif
A better write up in Clay Shooter February edition where Vic Harker goes into more detail and diplomatically skirts round the issue. Marvellous how the manufacturers can make new proof laws when they've got financial clout isn't it? I will be very interested how a DT11 handles fibre wads, but we have to remember that these guns have actually been built with the sole intention of winning Trap competitions using premium grade plastic wadded cartridges.Let us see how well they sell. But of course now we will have updated and re-launched Perazzi's etc.
