Beretta 1951 gets little sister

CasualObserver · Apr 17, 2014

So, awhile back I got a Beretta 1951 (which I love shooting) and have since decided that it was time to add some more Beretta's to the collection... So I recently picked up this nice little post war M1935. The M1935 is essentially a M1934 that Beretta modified for 32 ACP (7.65 Browning).... the original M1934 was .380 (9mm Corto). In fact they share a lot of parts with only a few being unique to one or the other. So while I keep looking for a nice M1934, I figured I would share a picture or two of my new to me M1935. Can't wait to see how this shoots compared to my CZ50.

I just picked up a beretta 948, it's the little little sister. Pretty much the same as the 1934 but in 22lr.

Fun little gun in the .32 ACP. I have a minty one and have the M1951 on my list, so kinda the opposite order as you did lol

Very nice!! I really like the 1935s, cool little guns. I have a late war 1935 arriving early next week.

Nice pair of pistols! My bro has a very early Cougar I have been trying to get out of him but no luck. Nice find.

Yeah, can't wait for 32 ACP to become available again a little cheaper (ie S&B or PPU). I can find it. Just hate paying so much for plinking ammo. I swore I wouldn't keep adding calibers to the collection, but I figured hey, why not after I got the CZ50 in 32 acp. Besides, I love open slide design of the Beretta's.

Sweet. I love Berettas.

Right now, .32 is the second most common caliber in my collection, after 9mm. Would love to add to the total pick up a wartime Beretta 1935 as a companion for my .380 1934.

agreed. I have a few in .32 ACP (Browning 7.65 mm) and it's like $18 per 50 round box ...for such a small round! Any good places to look for it, gunbot/online is usually the best with some ammo vendors out there. But locally just drive over and pick some up for relatively cheap (have to be non steel core though for my range to accept them, they do the magnet test)

WalMart on Guilford Dr in Frederick has had WWB 32 ACP in stock for the last several weeks. I am not sure of the price since I have not added a 32 to the collection...yet.

I bought a wwb 50rd of 32auto from WM a few weeks ago. If memory serves me it was like $25 :whoa:

Guess it's not something they sell a lot of, thus the high price.

Sunir · Apr 19, 2014

^^^ whoa $25 for a box of 50 is very high! I saw .32 ACP for $18.75 per 50 pack... I didn't know if that was even high or low for it.

Nice example! Funny that I've yet to put a 1934 into the collection but have two nice 1935s. These grow on you.
