Beretta last catalogued hammer guns in 1949. This fabulous piece is both special order and special production. It truly may be the only one on the continent. It remains in nearly new condition with only minor handling marks. I doubt that it was ever hunted. It is tight and on face. Top lever remains to the right. This is a fantastic modern "Vintager" that will make you the envy of your shooting colleagues!
