Beretta 1951

[SSE]

I just got 2 from MGE wholesale. I would rate them good +. Matching numbers, bores worn but shiny no pits, blue worn in spots, no deep pits just light freckling in spots. Overall I am pleased with them for dealer cost of $250 each. I have always wanted one, had a Helwan copy but those were not the best quality, so now I have to go shoot them.

They're cool pistols. I too had a couple of Helwans and although the military surplus guns were far better than the 'made-for-US-market' guns, they sure weren't Beretta quality. Now I've got three or four Berettas, one of which is an Egyptian contract gun. FWIW, they suppress pretty well. Enough muzzle sticking out for threading and the Beretta action functions without a booster.

I think the original Starsky character carried a Beretta 951.

Mags are tough. Hard to find and expensive when you do find them.

Yah Kaveman, one of them will be wearing a can.
