Description:
I purchased this rare BM59 Tanker rifle in 1972, fired it approx. 8 times and put it away to keep its new condition. The BM59 Tanker was a modification by Beretta in Itlay on U.S M1 Gerands. Barrels were shortened to 17 1/2", a 20 shot clip loaded from under the action similar to the M14 was added, a selector switch for full auto or Semi auto. plus other small changes. Brette made these modification durring and near the the end of WW2. This modification was considered for men entering and exiting tank hatches.
The gun is in super condition, the stock is walnut, i think; metal parts are blued except for the bayonet mount, bayonet did not come with gun, butplate is steel with storage door for cleaning kit, BM59 is stamped on bolt release, serial no. is 1013, proof marks and other numbers are located on underside of barrel, Three 20 shot clips come with the gun.
