Semi-Automatic Pistols of Italy

This is a child group of Semi-Automatic Pistols, collecting the Small Arms And Sidearms subcategory's semi-automatic pistols designed and manufactured in Italy: the Beretta lineup spanning the Model 1934 issued to the Royal Italian Army, the postwar Beretta 70 and M1951, and the Beretta 92FS, adopted by the United States military under its own M9 service designation but developed and built in Italy, together with the early Glisenti Model 1910. With 5 attested members, this group reflects Beretta's own standing as one of the oldest continuously operating firearms manufacturers in the world and the source of one of the most widely fielded service pistols of the late twentieth century.
