finished and checkered by hand with the utmost care. The side plates are
beautifully hand engraved with a light scroll pattern and finished to Beretta’s
extremely high custom standards. The floorplate is embellished with a 24-carat
fine gold inlay of the “P. Beretta” signature on the coin silver finish. The gun
