NOT a .410, but rather a 28; 28 gauge barrels for a 12ga frame AND forend. Titanium. Weigh the same as the 12ga barrels, so no handling difference.
Only 23k pounds, British pounds that is, for the barrels.
My 93 year old friend/benefactor is sitting on a Beretta combo gun, built on a 12 gauge frame with four barrels - 12, 20, 28, and .410. It looks decidedly odd (weird? ugly?) with the sub-gauge barrels installed, but it works, balances well and works ok.
My best all-time all-aound gun I've had: 20 gauge LC Smith, 28" M/F. The gun that was most magical in my hands for Clays, skeet, doves, grouse: 28 gauge Miroku/Anschutz O/U (on dedicated 28ga. frame), 26" skt1/skt2. Never had a .410 of any stripe that I would call "magical" - but of course I've never owned a single shot .410 so maybe I rushed to judgement....
