Beretta 12 Gauge OC HP 50mm Extended Choke
The Beretta 12 Gauge OC HP 50mm Extended Choke is a replacement Optima-Choke® HP tube designed for compatible Beretta 12 gauge shotguns, offering a longer 50mm extended profile beyond the muzzle. Built from high-strength steel with a nickel-alloy coating, it combines durability, corrosion resistance and straightforward choke changes in a design that is easy to install and remove.
Unlike a flush-fitting choke that sits largely inside the barrel, the extended design remains visible beyond the muzzle. This makes choke changes quicker when moving between shooting disciplines or ammunition types, while also giving the shotgun a more purposeful appearance.
Beretta designed this choke for barrels threaded for the Optima-Choke® HP system, ensuring direct compatibility with appropriately marked shotguns.  It is fully interchangeable within the Optima HP system, allowing shooters to select the constriction best suited to their requirements without changing barrels.
The choke is available in a range of constrictions, from Skeet through to Extra Full, giving flexibility across a variety of shooting applications. Steel-shot compatibility varies between constrictions, so check that your chosen choke suits your ammunition.
Beretta 12 Gauge OC HP 50mm Extended Choke Key Features
- 50mm extended profile beyond the end of the barrel
- Designed for Beretta 12 gauge Optima-Choke® HP barrels
- High-strength steel construction
- Nickel-alloy coating provides significant corrosion resistance
- Black finish

The combination of high-strength steel construction and a nickel-alloy coating helps protect the choke from wear, corrosion and the demands of regular use. The black finish complements modern Beretta semi-automatic shotguns and suits any compatible Beretta fitted with the Optima-Choke® HP system.
Always check that your shotgun uses the Optima-Choke® HP system before fitting this choke. Do not use Optima-Choke® HP tubes in standard Optima-Choke® barrels without the HP designation, as this can damage both the choke and the barrel when fired.
For shooters looking for a durable extended choke that offers easy handling, corrosion resistance and compatibility with Beretta’s Optima-Choke® HP system, the Beretta 12 Gauge OC HP 50mm Extended Choke is a practical choice for both replacement and load-specific setups.
