Interesting when the Beretta Gallery in London , unlike the unfriendly Beretta Australia, are the opposite. Very friendly and welcoming in London. I had the manager serving me, taking me around. Ended up buying maybe close to two thousands pounds sterling of accessories. Not a gun!

I got got two Beretta coats, a nice quilted cotton and suede shooting vest I wish I hadn't destroyed. Another shooting vest. Cotton shirts. A moleskin trousers. A drinking flask. A hat. Earmuffs x2. 2x ashtrays, one a gsp, the other a wild boar. Beretta gunslips. Probably other stuff.

. But not a gun!

Bought in Pisa and Florence Italy, a couple of times in London, the internet. .... Beretta Australia ? ...... Umm .... I had trouble getting serviced at gun shows at their stall ... Umm .... Three times, three shows. Too busy importantly talking to each other .... One guy I knew wouldn't even say hello. A year later wanted to be friendly when he needed something ... A salesgirl did sell me one of the ashtrays, the sales girl kept over remarking how much they cost!!! Well reduce the ffffing price then ..... I wanted it anyway.

One day I must organise a trip to Beretta HQ in Italy, Brescia, isn't it?

PS they probably happy selling their shit Tikka THE rifles ...

PPS I do have Tikka! A shotgun, my Valmet Rifle, combination, shotgun system. Used the shotgun on the weekend, the hosting club guys, about six of them asked to have some shots with it. Unfortunately they all proved my misses are not the gun !
