THE BEST SYSTEM IN THE WORLD TO REDUCE RECOIL AND MUZZLE RISE EFFECT
Beretta borrows hydraulic technology used in the automotive and aviation industries to reduce recoil and muzzle rise: the Kick-Off system, in its three different versions, reduces first and second peak recoil thanks to shock absorbers inside the stock and also avoids the annoying sliding of the nose piece on the cheek thanks to the B-Steady system.
More control, less shock: with Beretta's Kick-Off system it is possible to avoid bruising and keep your shotgun more stable without ever losing your line of sight.
KICK-OFF MEGA
The most powerful recoil reduction system available today, ideal for 89 mm chambered shotguns, especially when you enjoy shooting high loads and hundreds of shots in a single day. It effectively combines 3 different devices that work synergistically, reducing the perceived recoil by up to 70% ensuring greater stability, better control and faster target acquisition. Two hydraulic shock absorbers, positioned close to the rubber insert, together with the return springs, effectively act on the first recoil peak. A third hydraulic shock absorber, inserted in the tie rod, acts on the second recoil peak caused by the impact of the slide against the receiver, further reducing the muzzle rise effect and the vibrations caused by the movement of the slide.
KICK-OFF PLUS
It consists of two elastomer shock absorbers, positioned close to the rubber insert and equipped with return springs, which effectively act on the first recoil peak, reducing its perception up to 40%. A third elastomer shock absorber, inserted in the tie rod, absorbs the impact of the slide against the receiver, reducing the second recoil peak, the muzzle rise effect and the vibrations caused by the movement of the slide.
KICK-OFF
The first recoil reduction system developed by Beretta. It consists of two shock absorbers inserted close to the butt plate, completed by return springs, which effectively act on the first recoil peak, reducing the perceived recoil up to 60%.
A third elastomer shock absorber, inserted in the tie rod, acts on the second recoil peak caused by the impact of the slide against the receiver.
B-STEADY
Kick-Off Plus and Kick-Off Mega are equipped with the B-Steady system. The latter divides the stock into two sections, stock and pistol in order to avoid the annoying sliding of the nose piece on the cheek, without ever losing the line of sight.
