Our Assessment: The Beretta Silver Hawk is a testament to Italy’s deep tradition of fine shotgun craftsmanship. This model merges elegant design and robust field performance in one of the less commonly encountered 10 Gauge chamberings. Produced in 1958 and C&R eligible, this shotgun reflects a transitional period in Beretta’s evolution toward more refined boxlock doubles while retaining old-world artisanship in its engraving and woodwork.
This Silver Hawk offers a heavier platform compared to Beretta’s typical svelte upland guns—perfect for magnum 10 Gauge loads intended for goose blinds and long-range waterfowl work. The crisp scroll engraving, beavertail forend, and Pachmayr pad provide both function and form, while the full chokes and 31.5” barrels promise tight patterns downrange.
Whether you’re a collector seeking a rare Beretta side-by-side in a magnum configuration or a wingshooter ready to take on tough weather and tougher geese, this one has you covered. Please see our high quality photos and good luck on your bid! – M.C.
