I pulled my A400 out of a non-climate controlled storage room after 2+ years after using it fearing the worst... took 5 minutes to clean, zero issues. You really do get what you pay for with Beretta
Nice video... hope BerettaCommunity makes a cleaning tip vid for all of Beretta's Firearms. There are a lot of new gun owners out here that need assistance in this basic yet very important part of owning a firearm. A clean and well maintained firearm is a happy firearm :-)
The stock sliding across my cheek while using heavy field 12ga. loads made my cheek bleed quite badly. Shooting light target loads was no problem. I would appreciate any suggestions you may have to illuminate this problem. I love this gun BTW. A400 Xplor with kickoff .
Hello, I just bought a left hand A400 xplor action (bronze receiver), and yesterday for the first time I went to the range. There, of 25 shots, there were several cartridges that did not cycle, and were stuck in the extraction window. Before going to the range I gave a superficial clean to the gun, but did not clean the gas holes, in the gas cylinder, that communicate with the barrel. I thought that dirt in those holes could be one of the reasons for the cycling problem, and today when I striped the gun I noticed that in the gas cylinder there were two holes, but only one of them goes all the way to the inside of the barrel, what seemed very strange to me because my old 303 model, and my tecknys have two holes in the gas cylinder that communicate with the inside of the barrel. Can you please tell me if the A400 model only has one hole communicating with the inside of the barrel, or if this is a manufacturing problem? Regards Silva
Hi. Any tips or videos on changing the recoil spring sleeve on an xplor. Mine came broken out of the box. Got replacement sleeve but I want to know the best procedure to replace ir.
Does the A400 Etreme differ a lot from the A400 Explore? Other than super magnum rounds, like is it a more solid bolt system? Which has a better recoil suppression for normal 70mm rounds

@3:50 does the receiver get damaged if the bolt slams into it once or twice or is this something that occurs over time? I let it go on my new shotgun I didn't know :/
My gas chamber where the piston goes doesn't have that spring on the outside of it. Is that one your cleaning a 12 gauge. Mine is a 20 gauge. Is that the difference?
Alan, I'm so glad to hear that MY 20 gauge isn't the only one like this without the spring! Was starting to think that I may have lost something. Cleaning my piston after about 2500 rounds was quite the experience ... I certainly wouldn't wait that long. Best of luck, John Sofia jsofia@analysistech.com
Cody Woods I’m trying it. Had an issue with 7.5’s not locking the slide back after the last round was shot. I’m thinking I might have lubed this part...
guys, I followed the vid and reassembled the shotgun, but when I connected the barrel the charging handle was cocked and got stuck on the cocking position. I tried everything. help

Your bolt charging handle practically falls out, meanwhile it took me 30 minutes to get mine out. What at pain. What's the secret? it went right back in when I was done, and then I immediately tried to pull it back out, and no such luck. Safe to say the bolt assembly and trigger plate won't be getting cleaned often.
+tfa8rva I may not be able to explain it very well, but on of the little ridges on the bolt face lines up around where you need to push it to pull out the charging handle. You can also gently pull on the charging handle while pushing the bolt face back and forth to see where you kind of feel spot.
There is a little notch that you need to line the charging hand with, inside of the bolt carrier. It's pretty easy to spot, just use a flash light. When the light passes through into the carrier, then you know it's lined up.
Mine was hard to get out. Being brand new it's a tight fit. I oiled it up. Lined it up and worked it until it came out. I could see drag marks on the charging handle. It will probably loosen up after a few cleanings. I hope.
After reading the care instructions in the A400 Xplor manual this video caused me some confusion. Do I use gun oil on a cleaning cloth and THEN wipe down the piston and other areas? Or do I just use a unoiled cloth to just wipe down most things? The instructions say to use oil but not lubricate it, and this video only shows him using oil on select parts. This is what has me confused.
only use oil where he shows. piston just needs a wipe with a dry cloth to get the fouling off. Don't use as much oil as he seems to on the bolt and rails unless you clean your gun after every use.
i love my new a400 so much that i bought another a400 target gun. my first a400 would missfire dent primer about 1 out of 25 shots. it now drops 11 out of 25.... all have a shallow strike on the primer. anyone here that can help me. i want to avoid returning the gun to berreta. the gun is clean. the gun is clean
Mine is the same way. I oiled it. Lined it up with a flash light. Took a pair of pliers and gently worked it out. I wrapped the charging handle with a cloth to prevent tool marks.
I love this guy. His information is concise complete and well delivered. A true gun nerd.

so much energy
Very easy to follow. Thanks for the top quality video!
Erick was so young in this video times fly,thank you Erick for all the info
Nice video. I also like your plug removal video.
Nice video... hope BerettaCommunity makes a cleaning tip vid for all of Beretta's Firearms. There are a lot of new gun owners out here that need assistance in this basic yet very important part of owning a firearm. A clean and well maintained firearm is a happy firearm :-)
i have been waiting for such a review for a long time....... nice job....
Great job. It really helped me out
Thanks Eric
Very enthusiastic
Had the same problem with ejection, gunsmith was correct, either shells at 1295 -1325 have enough pressure that they shell always ejects correctly.
How about a vid on how to remove the kickoff system, to service or tighten up the stock. Thanks nice vidio
Yes, it is.
A good vidéo. Tank you.
It would be great if Beretta could do a video on properly cleaning the trigger assembly. Does it need any oil after cleaning?
The stock sliding across my cheek while using heavy field 12ga. loads made my cheek bleed quite badly. Shooting light target loads was no problem. I would appreciate any suggestions you may have to illuminate this problem. I love this gun BTW. A400 Xplor with kickoff .
Do you have a video of how to install extension magazine for a400 xtreme?
After cleaning the area with the wire brush, is any lube applied to that area? Thanks for the video!
What is the brand name of the anti-seize white lubricant you used on the choke tube?
Thanks for the cleaning tips.
Is the fore end cap of the Xplor interchangeable with the fore end cap of the Xcel if I wanted to lighten up the Xcel?
This is the real life "Mikey" from the animated series "Recess" fucking love it.

Do i need to do this before using it for the first time?
Hi. Any tips or videos on changing the recoil spring sleeve on an xplor. Mine came broken out of the box. Got replacement sleeve but I want to know the best procedure to replace ir.
Will these steps work on a A300. I have been searching form a video for the A300 and have not come across one.
Do we have to open up the gas cylinder?
What for greasing for dulny narrowing? On what basis?
I wish he would more fully broke the gun down... What's the point in only showing SOME of the disassembly ?
Does the A400 Etreme differ a lot from the A400 Explore? Other than super magnum rounds, like is it a more solid bolt system? Which has a better recoil suppression for normal 70mm rounds
I did everything so far but my bolt assembly when I push it a quarter turn back the bolt assembly won’t come out any suggestion
Also I had isue with benelli the only 1 wors so far Winchester sci sxp God goes Belgium.
After you wiped the receiver, what were u doing with the toothbrush? Applying oil?

You should slow down the reassembly of the shotgun. Much too fast.
no need to clean the barrel ????
I would.
Good video but would be good to get feedback on the queries people have
can you shoot slugs and 00 buck in these guns
Is a full strip down clean needed after each use? (100 rounds put through the A400)
Why no cleaning of the barrel?
@3:50 does the receiver get damaged if the bolt slams into it once or twice or is this something that occurs over time? I let it go on my new shotgun I didn't know :/
The Torex screwdriver for the 400 explor is T10, not T8 nor T15.
My gas chamber where the piston goes doesn't have that spring on the outside of it. Is that one your cleaning a 12 gauge. Mine is a 20 gauge. Is that the difference?

Cleaning my piston after about 2500 rounds was quite the experience ... I certainly wouldn't wait that long. Best of luck, John Sofia jsofia@analysistech.com
so a basic wipe down with NO oil to the gas system is all you need to keep it clean?

Thems are some meaty paw’s
I downloaded the manual and there are no pictured or diagrams. I hope the manual that comes with the gun has them.

Cleaning and Maintenance of the AL391 Urica 2?
I'm sorry .? Nc
I got it👍
where's the gas seal you didn't show
I've never seen paint dry so slowly.
whats the brand of the anti seize lubricant you are using there
Josh Thompson The lubricant is "Beretta Olio" www.berettausa.com/en-us/beretta-genuine-gun-oil-25ml/ol32000209/
Not the oil the anti seize. What's the brand of anti seize you are using on the choke tube
That is choke tube grease. Brownell's has many options, if you search for "choke tube grease"

👍🏻
But how do you take the buttstock apart. Really, taking it apart isn't too hard, but I could really use a video on putting it back together.
Re assembled exactly as it came apart. Charged it just as he did, during re assembly, in the video. Now it's completely locked up.. what's the deal!?
As always, it's hard to diagnose without speaking directly. Give us a call Mon-Fri 9am-5pm ET at 800-BERETTA ext. 2003

Nice few tips, you forgot to clean your barrel though :)
having trouble removing the charging handle...it's not budging
Mine is the same way. I oiled it. Lined it up with a flash light. Took a pair of pliers and gently worked it out. I wrapped the charging handle with a cloth to prevent tool marks.
Why did I buy this silly thing again, it's much more temperamental to tear apart then this video depects.
Do
Ok Beretta #1 it's a bull s. I just night it and is not working properly God them italians.
