In 97% very crisp condition, we have a top example of the Italian Army WWII issued Service Pistol, the .380/9mm corto 1941 Dated Model 1934 Beretta Pistol. This is an all matching pistol with a mint bore. This is a top example with little wear to the gripstraps. You will notice the plum appearance of the slide; most of these Model 34&35 Beretta pistols will have that distinctive two toned coloration. This is caused by a high nickel content special steel that was used in the production of the slides.
Although a bit dainty for a wartime service pistol, these pistols are very well made and highly regarded to this day, certainly one of the most sought after pistols of WWII.
