The Beretta 686 Silver Pigeon I Sporting (Beretta part no. J686S1230BFL) is a 12 gauge over/under built specifically for left-handed shooters, fitted with Beretta’s B-FAST adjustable comb system for tool-free fit adjustment. A 30-inch barrel gives a long, stable sight plane for outgoing targets, and a checkered walnut stock with a recoil pad keeps extended strings of fire comfortable. It’s a genuinely dedicated left-hand competition gun, not a right-hand model adapted after the fact.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a true left-hand build? Yes — it’s configured from the factory for left-handed shooters, not simply a right-hand gun with a swapped stock.

What does the B-FAST system do? It lets you adjust the comb’s height and cast without a gunsmith, dialing in your exact fit for a consistent sight picture.

Does the recoil pad help on long shooting days? Yes — it absorbs felt recoil during extended strings of fire common in sporting clays rounds.
