Traded my Beretta for another Beretta

Recommended Posts

A few years ago I had a great little pocket gun and regret selling it to date. I had a Beretta 950 B in .22 short. It was a great shooter and really pretty accurate.

I had to get another one so I bought a Beretta 21A with the wood grips. Well it was just not as small as what I remembered. I was doing some research and realized that I had sought out the wrong gun so the search began.

I found one and it was really a pretty good price and it was in good enough condition to make me happy. The owner of the gun shop offered me some money for my 21A that was way below what was expected so i passed on the deal. I really wanted to get one in nickel and this one was blued so I was not that disappointed. The search then continued.

That same day I went to another gun store in the same area. I looked in the stop they keep all the small guns and I was disappointed to not see anything I was seeking. It was at this same store that I passed up a Nickel 21A just weeks before. I returned to get it the next day after thinking about it and it was gone. Well i continued my walk through the store to see what was new and came back to the same area, looked down, and there it was. A nickel 950BS used yet unfired with the box. I had to have it.

Here is the gun I purchased:

There is some humor to this story as well. I took the new gun to the range and loaded it up. I was looking forward to trying out my new gun as anyone is. I pulled the trigger and poof.. no hole in the target!!!!! Where was the round, is it that bad!!! I unloaded the gun and looked into the barrel (Popup) there it was. Stuck… I was very unhappy. Well I shot off a few rounds with another gun and packed up out of disgust and headed back to the store.

When I arrived they fixed me up with a new box of ammo and removed the bullet from the barrel. I headed back to the range and was very happy to see it shoot straight and accurate!

Of course I loved the wood handles so here is the gun now!

My very first handgun was given to me by a friend several years ago, it was a Pietro I think I spelled that correctly? Berretta .25 Caliber,it looked something like yours, I loved that gun and honestly do not remember what I ever did with it,it was a fine little pistol that I wish I still had it :rofl: enjoy!
