BERETTA JAX8MR16 AX800 12 GA 3.5" 26" BBL OPTIFADE MARSH

The Beretta AX800 Suprema (JAX8MR16) is a semi-automatic 12 gauge waterfowl shotgun with a 3.5-inch chamber and a 26-inch Steelium Pro barrel, dressed in full Optifade Marsh camouflage and built as Beretta's most advanced hunting shotgun to date. This 12 gauge semi-auto waterfowl shotgun is purpose-built for serious duck and goose hunters who demand a competition-derived gas system, a built-in recoil reduction platform, and glove-friendly controls that perform from the first shot to the last in cold, wet, punishing field conditions.

Special Features

• The B-LINK Pro gas system cycles 36 percent faster and runs 46 percent cleaner than the previous generation Beretta gas platform, keeping the action reliable across light target loads and full-power 3.5-inch magnum waterfowl loads without adjusting settings between shell types.
• The Kick-Off Pro stock integrates hydraulic buffers directly into the buttstock structure, reducing felt recoil by up to 70 percent compared to a fixed synthetic stock, allowing faster target reacquisition and consistent shooting over extended high-volume hunts.
• The Steelium Pro tri-alloy cold hammer-forged barrel pairs with a 17.7-inch triple forcing cone, which lengthens the shell-to-bore transition zone and produces tighter, more consistent patterns at distance compared to conventional short forcing cone designs.
• The polymer receiver is optics-ready from the factory, accepting a red dot or micro reflex sight directly without drilling, tapping, or aftermarket rail installation.
• Oversized controls and the Pro-Lifter shell elevator are designed for gloved operation, keeping loading smooth and pinch-free when running heavy gloves in cold weather hunting situations.
• The Optima HP choke system is rated for steel shot, bismuth, and other non-toxic hunting loads, making the JAX8MR16 fully compliant for waterfowl hunting wherever steel or approved non-toxic shot is required.
• Ambidextrous sling swivels, a choke tube wrench, gun oil, and an owner's manual ship with every AX800 Suprema, giving you a field-ready kit without a separate accessory purchase.

Practical Benefits

• The 26-inch barrel delivers a shorter, more maneuverable swing in confined blinds and timber hunting setups where a 28 or 30-inch barrel catches on overhead branches and decoy rigging.
• The 3.5-inch chamber opens every shelf of waterfowl ammunition to you, from light 2-3/4 inch early-season teal loads through the heaviest 3.5-inch goose magnums, with the B-LINK Pro gas system handling the full range without manual adjustment.
• Full Optifade Marsh pattern coverage on the stock, forend, and receiver blends the shotgun into coastal marsh and open water environments where high-visibility surfaces spook wary late-season ducks and geese.
• The adjustable length of pull and Kick-Off Pro stock allow you to dial in fit for layered cold-weather hunting clothing and share the shotgun across shooters of different builds without a separate stock purchase.
• If you are a dedicated waterfowl hunter who runs high-volume seasons in demanding conditions, the Beretta AX800 Suprema (JAX8MR16) in 12 gauge gives you a competition-derived, factory-tuned platform that earns its place in the blind every morning of the season.

The Beretta AX800 Suprema (JAX8MR16) in 12 gauge is a proven platform and a smart addition for the serious waterfowler who wants Beretta's most advanced gas system, maximum shell versatility, and a purpose-matched Optifade Marsh finish in a 26-inch hunting configuration.
