Bought an Italian trio today.

[Grayfox54]

I'll admit that I'm bragging here a bit. But I'm happy about this buy.
I've never even bought two guns in the same day, much less three. But I did just that today.
It all started with some ads on Armslist. The guy listed each gun individually, but then there was a 4th ad for them as a group. I contacted him, we haggled and I believe I got a great deal. 

All three are Berettas. a 2016 85FS Cheetah .380, a 2001 3032 Tomcat .32acp and a 950BS Jetfire .25acp. All three are LNIB with original manuals. Not a mark on any of them.

I can't seem to find a date for the Jetfire. No date code on the gun that I can find and the serial # doesn't come up on any list. The guy said it was an antique. Can anybody help with that? I'll probably have to contact Beretta. 

The best part? I gave $1000 for the lot. I'm tickled plumb to pieces!

Ohh, man. Very nice group!

Reminds me of the last time I brought a trio of Italian honeys home! Let's see, that was, uhh, never ago... Probably for the best, I'd have no idea what to do...

Sweet deal! I've been able to pull stuff like that in the past, but been many years since I found that sweet a deal. And with the boxes too!! Man that's great!

Great pick up. While your hand is hot, you should buy some lotto tickets.

 I saw these the other day and was very tempted. Thank you very much for saving me some money.

Very good triple play

Garufa: I already tried that. Serial number wouldn't come up. Also tried several other place around the net. No joy. I guess I'll give Beretta a call sometime next week. BTW: the seller was wrong. Its not an antique. I've found that its a U.S. made gun. Its the 950BS model with a manual safety.  I'll admit I sorta have a thing for mouse guns.  I'm really liking the little Jetfire. 

I've been curious about the Tomcat for years. Always wanted to try one.  But its a little bigger than it looks. Not really a mouse gun, more of a pocket pistol. But I am looking forward to shooting it. 

I had a Model 84 once. That's the double stack Cheetah. Great gun! I really liked it and always regretted selling it. But at the time I needed the money. I'm sure all of you know how that goes.  I'm guessing the 85 will be just as good. 

Between the weather and a few other things I've got going, I have no idea when I'll get them to the range. But I am looking forward to it.

Nice set.  I have a Cheetah (81BB) and a 950BS myself.  They are great guns.  The .25 doesn't really have a practical use, but like you, I like mouse guns.  It is fun to shoot.

Well this is interesting. I called Beretta today about dating the Jetfire. They tell me their records don't go back that far. All they can say is that it was made somewhere between 1970 & 1987. Geez, you'd think a gun company would keep better records.

They're Italian.
