Redeye65 160 Posted April 4, 2021 Is adding the MXT extension tube to a 1301 legal, it adds two rounds which would make the capacity 6+1, does the +1 count as a round or is it just what you can fit in the tube which would be 6. Want to add a flash light and it seems like the MXT extension is the easiest way to get there. Thanks, Marty Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Old Glock guy 1,125 Posted April 4, 2021 You are limited to 6 in the tube. The one in the chamber doesn't count. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redeye65 160 Posted April 5, 2021 Now I’m getting myself even more confused. The Beretta 1301 Tactical is a gas-operated, semi-automatic 12 gauge chambered for 2¾- and 3-inch shells. It has a tubular magazine with a 5+1 capacity using 2¾-inch shells (or 4+1 with 3-inch shells). with the extension tube and 2 3/4 inch shells I’m over the 6 round limit, with 3 inch shells I’m not. what shell size is taken into consideration when determine magazine size in nj? My god, all I want to do is put a light on it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnnyB 4,289 Posted April 5, 2021 If it can hold and function with more than 6x 2 3/4" rounds in the tube, it's not legal. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krdshrk 3,872 Posted April 6, 2021 Since the 1301 Tactical is a 5+1 already, you could get the +1 extension, not the +2. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
silverado427 10,552 Posted April 6, 2021 Was there a plug In the tube to limit the capacity before you put the extension on. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JC_68Westy 1,024 Posted April 6, 2021 If the whole purpose is to mount a light, then have you looked at the Steiner Mk7 Battle Beretta 1301 LED Tactical Shotgun Light? It looks like it replaces the end cap. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, there was a plug that limited it to two rounds. Took it out. 7 hours ago, JC_68Westy said: If the whole purpose is to mount a light, then have you looked at the Steiner Mk7 Battle Beretta 1301 LED Tactical Shotgun Light?

Redeye65 160 Posted April 6, 2021 Just my luck, Midway lists it as discontinued, and not available anywhere I can find. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PK90 3,569 Posted April 7, 2021 Put the longest extension on that you want, then epoxy a wooden dowel in the end to limit the capacity to (6) 2.75" shells (not quite 7), then (6) 3" shells should fit. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
