6/18/21 - This is an excellent example of a Beretta Model 1934 rig issued to the Italian military in 1941. The gun is all matching and has the proper "Crown RE" Italian military proof. The rig comes with a period-correct holster and two period-correct magazines. The holster was made for the Italian police or "Carabineri", a part of the Italian Army during WW2. That makes this a fairly rare holster. It has retained about 96-97% of its high polish finish. Minor wear on the high edges of the slide and around the muzzle. There are small dots of oxidation here and there, most noticeable on the straps. One noticeable scratch on the left side of the frame. Excellent grips. Very nice bore with strong rifling and minor frosting in the grooves.
