Beretta 682 inertia problems

[cherokee33]

I have recently purchased a beretta 682 supersport mfg 1992.On dry testing the cocking action seems to cock both barrels insofar that it will allow both chambers to fire one straight after the other,to my knowledge as I have another similar 682 (1988 sporting) this is not correct as the inertia should cock the second. Is this normal or should I send it to a gunsmith,or can this be rectified by

thoroughly cleaning the action after removing the stock.

although not a Beretta, all my Browning B25's work the same.

I'm pretty sure that's normal. I used to own a Browning 525 and a Beretta Silver Pigeon (both moved on to new homes, now). On both guns, you could dry-fire one barrel, move your barrel selector switch over and then fire the next.

If selective trigger move switch to other barrel and pull the trigger or tap the butt on the floor or with your hand.

I find it strange that it only happens about 4 out of every 5 times?

My 682 sporting never does it after a days shoot I only get 1 click when I put the snap caps in prior to stowing it away.

I remember reading somewhere that for a short period, Beretta fitted non-inertia mechanical triggers to 682s. I'd take the stock off and see if there's an inertia block etc. Since all 686/7/2 actions are the same, your two will be identical inside if they're both using inertia triggers.

I tried changing the barrel selection,but still intermittent double cocking.Cannot be a mechanical action because of the intermittent dry-firing.

I think there is merit in these words. not sure of years though but heard the same.

I'm reasonably sure my old spec 682 had mechanical triggers but it's been a few years.

My newest 682 was ca 1994 it was inertia im guessing it was after that , whay year was yoiurs can you remember.

Pretty sure it would have been 1990 ish, not as late as 94.

Not sure then my early one would have been 89 im guessing was inertia too, as was my 680 before it, i got my first 682 in 93 it was four of five years old they came out in about 1988 i think the 682s .

I have a 1986 682 Sporting and it has mechanical triggers not inertia.

Hi all

Thanks for all the replies,I will have to remove the stock to investigate,but my 1988 ( mfg code AT) 682 sporting has definitely got an inertia action.

The mfg code for the supersport is BA....Total mystery to me at the moment..

[cherokee33]

Ooops supersport mfg 1991...

Its interesting this wonder if its different types of 682 mine have all been trap guns is it just say sporters are mechanical perhaps something like that, or is it age spacific.

Anyone who is following this,I have just received this info from GMK after I requested help,put my mind at rest but I think it won't hurt to give the action a good clean.

 

"Sometimes the action of the hammer going forward is enough to activate the inertia system, it depends how it's set up. Either way, it will require a separate pull of the trigger to engage each barrel.This is quite normal for all Beretta O/Us."
