Default If They Could Only Talk...

I wonder where this little Beretta Model 34 .380 has been in it’s long life......I picked this up today at the LGS.

Congratulations. I have one as well, they’re nice little vintage guns, and very reliable too. Probably an Italian cop’s pistol.

My all-time best hand fitter. But I didn’t like the trigger or the 380 cartridge.

From the condition of the OP's gun, I'd say it could tell us much about the changes in sock fashion over several decades.

Actually, that’s about par for the course for a European police gun. Clearly used, but little of what we’d consider wear. About 10 rounds a year for “qualification”, other than that not much to do but comfortably riding around all day enclosed in a wrap-around pouch

Are these surplus Berettas up for sale again? I've bought 3 over the last few years and every one has been an excellent shooter, great condition.
