4/26/18 - This is a scarce Beretta M1934 pistol that was manufactured in 1942 and issued to the Italian Air Force. The pistol is matching and original with 80-85% blue remaining. It has a very nice slide and profile but the straps are thin throughout. There were very few pistols produced with these characteristics, as very few M1934's were issued with Air Force markings and most of those had blank slides. The vast majority of the Air Force issued pistols were M1935's. This pistol has nice grips and a finger extension magazine. Bore is shiny with strong rifling but does show minor frost.
