The Beretta Tx4 Storm is a tactical semi-automatic shotgun produced by Beretta. The gun is not to be confused with the handgun and carbine with which it shares its name. [1]

The configuration of the gun includes a tall front sight with a white bead, top receiver rail, and a removable white Ghost Ring sight on that rail. The Tx4 has an 18-inch barrel that is cold hammer forged and lined with chrome. The capacity of the magazine includes 5 shots, and there is an ambidextrous safety on the trigger. [2]

The shotgun's trigger can be adjusted with 1/2 inch spacers. A soft rubber grip inlays on the fixed synthetic stock which is overlaid by black rubber. A metal Picatinny rail is mounted on the receiver in order to accept optics. [3] The shotgun has the capability to fire both reduced and full power loads. [4]

The TX4 comes with a spacer to accommodate left-handed shooters and two sling swivels. This gun was shipped with two extra chokes, a choke tool, and an oversized charging handle. [5]
