Should be some juicy bits about pistols released as we near shot show.

Thinking of buying the APX A1.

Beretta 70S (Berben Marked) 22LR variant



I am passing on this one. I have a 22LR 70 series already. I am looking more towards a 7.65 Browning or 9 Short 70 series.
It was really tempting though.
Ohh Arizona time, so the place doesn't open until 9am their time. Which is 1 hour from my posting

The 70S is gone, but there is a rareish 950BS in Nickel up today

Most of the Cabelas guns that I call on have already been sold, it's a poorly maintained database.

Yeah they can be slow to take stuff down. Also for me its a pain in the arse to head up to that side of town

I am on the hunt for a 7.65 Browning/32 ACP Beretta Model 70 or 90 myself.

Based on GB you probably need to set aside 500.00+ if you want a 70 in .32!

 

[BigMoose]

They are out there. Its the black sheep Beretta. I guess it draws parallels to the APX family in my opinion.. In that Beretta tried to make a version of what was in vogue at the time. Unlike the APX, the 90 never caught on, and it never sold well.

"Production began in September 1968 and ended in July 1982 with pistol serial number 26421, which was not sold until February 1987"

So there aren't a lot of them.

It was made in the now gone Beretta Rome Italy factory. (Where I think they did BM-59 rifle builds), hence the Armi Roma markings.

There's only two on GB right now for silly prices, it looks very reminiscent of the Sig 230, maybe it was just ahead of its time.

It was basically more of a Beretta version of the PP / PPK. it was DA/SA when the 70 series was SA only. It was marketed along side the traditional Beretta models.



Yeah the 7.65 versions can push the 1K mark.

There were a scant few 9 Corto/380 versions made.. Possibly just prototypes.

Now you got me looking at Spanish stuff again, lol.

The PP/PPK series back in the mid to late 20th century is like the Striker fired Glock today, everyone gotta be copying it.

I look at the PP series once in a while. I might get one, or a clone.

Which PP? I have s PP Super in 9X18 Ultra/Police, it doesn't get shot very often.
And a French PPKS in 380, and that with good ammo, is a violent little pistol to shoot. lol

I never thought they were ugly. Now the APX, Glock, whatever brick shaped polymer framed striker fired pistol...

THOSE ARE UGLY
