Pretty awesome to see a trick shooter do his stuff. I remember seeing footage of an old guy busting caps with a pair of colt single action army revolvers who could fire that fast.
But if he's busting off 12 shells at a go, he's gotta be using half-sized Aguila mini shells. They've got a real low recoil pulse compared to a full size round. Once you factor in the gas operation, the bolt dampener and the recoil absorbing stock, the recoil would be almost non-existent.
To get the Beretta to feed those Mexican shorties reliably, I bet he must've over-bored his gas operated system. Not sure how that'd affect operation with man killing shells, but it couldn't be good. At the very least, you'd have a dirty gun afterward.
For semi-auto shotguns, I believe I'd still go for a Benelli or a Remington. You get better sights, wider availability of parts and a proven pedigree. I bet it'd cost less too.
