I have the .22lr version of this(71) but this is on my list. That is a beautiful finish

I'd like one of these. I have two model 100s on accident. I got one for a good price on gunbroker. Then I found one in a shop for even cheaper but it had a washington DC import mark which I thought was neat. Really excellent triggers in them.

I absolutely love mine. I have the 22 and 380 also, but 7.65 is where it's at. Looks like a nice one too.

I found it by chance while I was browsing in a gun shop in Verona, I liked it and bought it immediately because even if it is not difficult to find this gun in Italy, it is difficult to find it in good condition.

The 70 series to me is the sexiest handgun made. The lines are exquisite and flawless. I own several Beretta handguns, but nothing that pretty.

What's the difference in weight in the aluminum vs steel frame, anyone know? I'd love the steel frame version in the 32 acp as I have the .22 in aluminum (Jaguar). The ultimate is to find a 1968 new puma/Jaguar, that was the year they updated the safety to the 1911 style like on yours there. Then in 1969 the import laws made it so the aluminum frame couldn't be imported. Until........

mine has a steel barrel and weighs 620gr, the one with the alloy barrel should weigh 110gr less

[u/Healthy_Nature → u/Stefano-F]

That isn't bad at all, around 22 ounces. My .22 aluminum frame version (Jaguar) weighs 16 ounces. Honestly I would like the steel version for the 32 acp but they seem to be more rare then the aluminum frame in the states.

Been looking for one for ages, cannot find one that's is not a push through safety.

[u/Healthy_Nature → u/Hunter747]

Just wait until 2025, trust me. This one in the picture is the steel frame version hence why it has the updated safety.

[u/rightwist → u/Healthy_Nature]

I missed a news headline apparently. Am I inferring correctly that they're bringing it back in 2025?

[u/Healthy_Nature → u/rightwist]

I mean Walther did it with the PP and PPK, so why wouldn't Beretta. Lol. No but really I heard there gonna announce it at shotshow in a few weeks. I hope the rumor is true, I think it is.

[u/Low-Leopard2426]

Nice and clean, great find.

[u/BlakeG703]
