1936 M34 Beretta Full Rig

[majspud]

Picked this one up today off GB. Owner lives in state, so with school cancelled son and I took a road trip. Early full rig, no excuses, very tight action, great bore, and the Italian holster is in good shape. Crown/RE Army proof. Slide is a little more worn than the rest of the gun. I really like my M35 7.65 Beretta as my carry piece, but I wanted a little more punch. Now I can also retire the M35 to the gun cabinet as it is a papered bring back.

For a full matched correct rig, I think I did OK - about the cost of a field grade M1 Garand from CMP. Not a bargain, but fair.

Nice. I have one as well. Trigger is to be of expected, but an interesting piece.

Beautiful. I just picked up a shooter-grade 1951 for a song. Those old Berettas are pretty sweet.

CDIH: is there a word missing?

.380 is better than .32.

Nice gun.

Quick range trip to shoot two mags of 95gr. Prvi JHP. About 25 feet, 34 degrees, overcast, gloves. Pistol functioned fine, save second magazine is very snug and hard to remove. I had to help close the slide twice; I'll pick up a second spare one. Nice recoil, first shot was in the red.

Camera broke last night; pic from my wife's iPhone.
