From Beretta USA:

Team Beretta athletes delivered standout performances at the 2025 North Central Regional Championship, claiming top spots across multiple divisions and showcasing the winning edge of Beretta competition firearms. The highlight of the weekend was Desirae Edmunds’ commanding 1st place Ladies division victory in her very first tournament with the all-new Beretta A400 L Sporting.

Edmunds’ flawless transition to the A400 L Sporting proved the shotgun’s competitive pedigree right out of the gate. Joining Edmunds on the podium, Connor Daniel earned 1st place in the Junior division with his Beretta DT11, and Zachary Kienbaum secured 3rd place Overall, also with his DT11.

“The North Central regional was the first tournament with my new A400L. I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome and how seamless the transition into the new gun was. It has all the same great features that a competition Beretta auto has always had with an elevated look and feel,” said Desirae Edmunds, Team Beretta. “The new polished and refined receiver, not only looks fantastic, but also delivers an incredibly smooth shooting experience. Overall, another great addition to Beretta’s already impressive line of semi-automatic shotguns.”

The Beretta A400 L Sporting blends competition-proven engineering with refined Italian craftsmanship. The A400 L has some of the latest in Beretta’s barrel technology, including a Steelium® Plus barrel, as well as an aluminum trigger guard along with enlarged controls, and the innovative B-Link gas operating system for 36% faster follow-up shots for enhanced stability, comfort, and control for faster target acquisition. It’s designed for shooters who demand both performance and style.
