• Slide the fore-end into place over the gas cylinder / the valve assembly and

magazine tube (Fig. 13). checking for the correct centering on the receiver

face. The fore-end is in the correct position when it is fully against the receiver

(Fig. 14).

• Screw the fore-end cap on tightly (Fig. 15).

• Keep your ﬁ ngers away from the ejection port, press the breech bolt release

button and gently guide the breech bolt to lock (Fig. 16).

CAUTION: When pressing the release button to close the breech bolt, be sure

to not accidentally engage the cut-off lever. If this occurs, the breech bolt will be

kept open by the cut-off lever. In this case, lock the breech bolt while disengaging

the cut-off lever. Keep the ﬁ ngers away from the ejection port (Fig. 17).

• Keeping the breech bolt pulled back 2 cm, pull the trigger, thereby decocking

the hammer (Fig. 18).

WARNING: Store your ﬁ rearm so that children or other persons not familiar

with ﬁ rearms cannot gain access to it. To reduce the risk of accidents involving

children, unload your ﬁ rearm and lock it away. Store the ammunition in a separate

locked location. (See point 3 of the BASIC SAFETY RULES).

NOTICE: If the ﬁ rearm will not be used for a long time, keep it lubricated and

disassembled (see the chapters “Maintenance” and “Storage”).

STOCK DROP AND CAST MODIFICATION

WARNING: Always check that the shotgun is unloaded (empty cartridge

chamber, empty receiver, empty magazine). Inspect the ﬁ rearm by looking

through the ejection port, the loading gate and the chamber. If it is not empty,

unload it as instructed in the relevant section.

WARNING: Never point the ﬁ rearm at someone or at hard, ﬂ at surfaces. Always

treat the shotgun as if it were loaded. (See points 1, 2 and 4 of the BASIC

SAFETY RULES).

The Beretta semi-automatic A400 Xplor has a pre-set factory stock cast-off

setting (for right-handed shooters) with 55 or 60 mm drop.

The components which govern the drop and the cast are (see Fig. 40):

 the drop-cast front spacer, made of reinforced technopolymer ﬁ breglass.

 the stock steel plate.

Both the front spacer  and the plate  are designed to secure two different

drops, each with a cast-off or a cast-on (for left-handed shooters) depending on

how they are assembled. A set of additional spacers is also provided to further

change the drop by replacing the spacer pair.
