Beretta Model 1915/19 Navy contract pistol with pressed steel "PB" monogrammed grips and blue finish. Italian Navy property marking of "RM" with anchor in circle on left side of frame under chamber and on rear of frame on right side. Chambered for the 7.65mm cartridge. These are the first of the iconic Beretta pistols with the fully exposed ejection port area that was utilized on the later 1934 and 1935 Models. The Navy contract examples are extremely uncommon and rarely encountered. This example is complete with its appropriate brown leather flap holster and spare magazine. CONDITION: Very good overall with excellent bright shiny bore and crisp action. Blue finish is worn in areas from holster storage with thinning on front and backstraps from use. Grips are very good with out any of the typical dents or bruises.
