One of the defining features of this model is Beretta’s Kick-Off recoil reduction system, which incorporates spring-operated shock absorbers within the stock to significantly reduce felt recoil and muzzle rise. This system, combined with the rubber Micro-Core recoil pad, allows shooters to maintain control and comfort during long competition days or high-volume shooting sessions. The ambidextrous semi-pistol grip stock with palm swell, fluted straight comb, and checkered forend with full finger shelf offers excellent ergonomics and balance, while the blue anodized receiver and blued barrel give the shotgun a modern, competition-ready aesthetic. Overall, the A400 Xcel Sporting Kick-Off stands as one of Beretta’s premier semi-automatic sporting shotguns, blending cutting-edge technology with refined handling and proven competitive performance.
