Cockermax Posted July 6, 2018 Report Share Posted July 6, 2018 (edited) Anyone have one or have any experience of a Beretta 693 Field, 12g. Can’t find any reviews on the net so any opinions good or bad would be grateful. Edited July 6, 2018 by Cockermax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it is one and the same just some shops call it 690 grade 3 others 693. There is also the 695 which I believe is the above with better wood and engraving https://www.gunmart.net/shooting-advice/news/beretta-launch-new-695-field-shotgun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cockermax Posted July 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2018 Think Firdom might be right. just looked on Beretta’s site and shows a 690 Field 111 & when you click on that describes it as a 693 Field. obviously just depends on how someone describes it.

button Posted July 13, 2018 Report Share Posted July 13, 2018 Spoke to a dealer who said it is a 690 grade 3 but they are been rebranded to 693 so there you go, interesting to see how the price will change Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest stevo Posted July 13, 2018 Report Share Posted July 13, 2018 (edited) Good to know ? stand by my comments though , I thought it was a very smart looking bit of kit , and felt nice in the shoulder , and a familiar overall feel .

button Posted July 13, 2018 Report Share Posted July 13, 2018 I really like the field version, especially the forend shape Some of the deluxe ones have some very nice timber on and not too bad a price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roadkill Posted July 21, 2018 Report Share Posted July 21, 2018 went shooting with my 14 year old and noticed he was getting to big for his 20g junior gun, so did the only decent thing a dad would do and give him my Beretta 686. I'm now the new owner of a 690 field 3.. Reviews on google look good and hopefully try it out next week!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roadkill Posted July 22, 2018 Report Share Posted July 22, 2018 wood is nice but didn't see anything that mentions that its a deluxe so guess its a std Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
button Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 The newan 693, think I preferred the English forend that they did before https://www.guntrader.uk/guns/shotguns/beretta/over-under/12-gauge/693-180724150642004 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lloyd90 Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 What’s so good about them? Have they replaced silver pigeons and if not how do they differ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
button Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 I believe they are based on the 690/692 which is wider action than the SP to give better/different balance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
