    Finally, I have a proper Fridge Beretta...

    After many years, I finally ran into an M1935 in decent shape and at a decent price. It's a fascinating link in the evolution of my favorite pistols, and let's face it, everyone needs a Fridge Beretta. Assuming it runs, I'll be taking this to the local BUG match soon.

    Personally, I lean towards an SBS in my office fridge.

    BTW, we need to chat about shotguns sometime.

    Oh. And you have the 1950s-era upgraded grips and slanted serrations. Well done.

    And hey… I’ve always said Italian makes the best leftovers…

    Nice. A cool Beretta heater to go with your Beretta heater.

    Haha. That reminds me of the Nissan Computer corporation.

    This appears to be a later-production civilian-market gun. No military proofs, "Made in Italy" marked in English on the right side of the slide, and a 1957 proof date. The slide has that purplish mid-century Beretta bluing that you see on very early 92s. And best of all, the 'light surface rust' mentioned in the auction description turned out to just be dried-out oil and gunk that wiped right off with some solvent and a nylon brush.

    I'm really excited at the prospect of putting some rounds through it this weekend.

    I mean, 8+1 rounds of .32 ACP is basically a round of 00 buck, right?
