Beretta S687 EELL Clasic Game Scene

The 687 EELL Classic is the top of the line of Beretta's 680-series over-under shotguns. It features sideplates that act as extra canvas for the lavish hand-chased engraving, as well as a specially-selected walnut stock that gives it a true heirloom quality.

But while it certainly figures well while on display, the Classic's worth as a game gun is equally striking. Weighing about 7 lbs (12-ga version), and with the point of balance right at the hinge-pin, it is a shotgun that comes up naturally to the shoulder while still having enough of a lively feeling forward of the supporting hand.

The 687 EELL Classic Pigeon's elegance, fine balance and responsiveness puts this field shotgun in a class of its own. It features a gold-plated yet classic single selective trigger with a patented trigger system which allows for fast lock times and a crisp trigger pull (double trigger optional). Carefully polished and blued to a premium standard, the barrels are wonders of remarkable strength and matchless balance. The balance between aesthetics and performance make this both a hunter's, and a connoisseur's dream.

Its premium hand-chased engravings make these shotguns the most unique and exclusive in their category. Full sideplates boast fine engravings of birds, further enhanced by intricately detailed motifs of branches, leaves and flowers which extend to the trigger plate, trigger guard and fore-end iron lever.

Complementing its fine engraving details, is carefully selected, premium-quality European walnut woods which form its Prince of Wales stock. The 687 EELL Classic Pigeon comes in an attractive but functional hard case that will protect this investment and work of art so it can be passed down to generation after generation.
