Only about 15,000 were produced, making this quite rare, especially in the US. The Beretta Model 1915 is a semi-automatic pistol manufactured by Beretta which was designed by Tullio Marengoni, the chief engineer in the company at the time, to replace the Glisenti Model 1910 due to weaknesses in the firing mechanism. It is the first semi-automatic pistol which was manufactured by the company and was adopted as the service pistol in Royal Italian Army just over a month into the Great War. The total production of the Beretta M1915 is estimated about 15,670 during its four-year production run. The design of the pistol bears resemblance to modern Beretta pistols. Strong action (broken firing pin [will be included]). Semi-bright bore. Both grips are in good shape. This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic. Barrel is 3-1/4 inches.
