Overview
Overview
The Beretta 1201FP shotgun uses the proven inertia drive operating system found on Benelli shotguns and is very reliable. Some models came with rifle sights and some came with ghost ring sights with a tritium "night sight" insert in the front sight. The 1200 and 1201F and FP are no longer manufactured and the Benelli Super 90 is the current version.
