Description

In 97% condition we have a very rare and seldom seen complete early production Italian Military issue Model 1910 Glisenti Pistol.  This is sold with an original box (5 rounds remain) of 1916 dated Fiocchi made military ammo from WWI!  The pistol is all matching with an excellent bore.  This pistol was the Italian Military Service Pistol at the outbreak of the First World War, though it never came close to replacing the Bodeo Revolver and was supplemented by Beretta’s and Ruby type pistols as the war dragged on.  These pistols saw service right through WW2 as well.  These pistols are well known to collectors as being a well built pistol with a vague Luger look that shot a weaker version of the 9 m/m Parabellum round called the 9m/m Glisenti.   Today these pistols are very seldom seen.  .  This is a very noteworthy pistol that would be a must have for any Italian Military or WWI collector.
