Innovations
keep Beretta's new 470 Silver Hawk flying high above the rest.
The 470 Silver Hawk's classic design perfectly combines the traditional
elements and styling characteristics of a side-by-side with the advanced
technology of state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques. Technologically
sophisticated laser technology is used to actually fuse the barrel
tubes to the Monobloc, creating the unique Beretta Block™
a solid steel barrel chamber set with no brazing or other mechanical
attachment to mar the perfect alignment of these two all-important
components. The result is more than a seamless assembly of unyielding
strength. It is a classic look that will never be out of date. The
ejection system of the 470 Silver Hawk offers the shooter two choices
for removing spent shotshells.
An innovative selector switch, located on the fore-end iron, provides
for automatic ejection or manual extraction. It's an environmentally
friendly way of keeping spent hulls from littering fields. The patented
locking mechanism of this remarkable gun is precision manufactured
through advanced Electric Discharge Machining (EDM) that removes metal
with astonishing accuracy and repeatability. The innovative "progressive"
bottom locking system ensures a solid lock-up, year after year. The
470 Silver Hawk's durability and operational integrity are assured
by the hard, corrosion-resistant, silver chrome finish on all exposed
metal parts. Every one of these components-from the receiver, to the
bores and chamber, to the elegant fore-end iron, to the top lever,
trigger, trigger guard and trigger plate - are protected by this though,
stylish surface finish.
An array
of distinctive details makes the 470 Silver Hawk a true standard.
To emphasize its role as a 470th Anniversary symbol, an array of
special touches that elevate Beretta guns into a class of their
own were carefully crafted into the design of this exceptional shotgun.
The elegant, low profile receiver is made of a nickel-chromium-molybdenum
steel alloy and features fine hand-chased engraving. Barrels are
made of "Excelsior" high tensile steel. The elegantly designed barrel
rib is smooth and concave in shape. The classic English-style stock
and slender, finely checkered fore-end are made of select walnut
with traditional oil finish to highlight the wood's beauty. The
fore-end is further enhanced with a fore-end iron featuring fine
engraving. The top lever is checkered and highlighted with fine
engraving and a gold inlaid hawk's head. The trigger plate features
an oriented locking screw. The new 470 Silver Hawk Side-by-side
is available with a single selective or double trigger
and comes with either 26 or 28 inch barrels in 12 or 20 gauge. An
ultra-tough ABS case is included.
History
repeats itself with this modern Beretta classic.
Once again, Beretta introduces a side-by-side destined to carve
a unique niche in the community of discerning hunters. The 470 Silver
Hawk is much more than just another new gun. It's the latest example
of gunmaking excellence that only the craftsmen at Beretta can achieve.
A clear indication of how 470 years of tradition can translate into
one extraordinary shotgun.
