SO10 SeriesSeventy years after the fi rst modern Beretta over and under (the S1 was launched in 1933), a new true sidelock shotgun was born. The SO10 over and under is the deserving successor of the famous Beretta SO series hunting and competition shotguns. They have earned their reputation, on the Olympic podium and on the most exclusive hunts in the world, from Europe to America to Africa, for being the most functional, elegant and exclusive over and unders in the world.

The SO10 Series has no pins or screws on the surface of the receiver, thus providing a blank surface for the master engraver. The locking system of the Beretta SO10 over and under features a rear longitudinal bolt operating in a central position. This not only makes the opening of the barrels smooth and noiseless, but it also minimises stress when opening. Needless to say, the stock and forend on SO10 and SO10EELL are made from high quality walnut, which has been selected for its grain quality, colour and strength.
