Beretta 486 Parallelo

The Parallelo we are looking at this month has been in production since around 2012. It replaced Beretta’s Silver Hawk, a shotgun that attracted a lot of followers due to its side-by-side single-trigger combination. If we look back at the ancestors of the Parallelo, not as far back as 1526 when Beretta started in the gun trade but the 1950s when it made the 409, we find a number of them are still in regular use.
