Catalog Page: 218
Class: Curio & Relic Handgun
Description:

Manufactured in 1972, the Falcon was produced on a prototype basis for the Spesco Corporation of Atlanta, a firearms importer that used "Falcon" as a recurring brand name on a number of handguns they sold. The Beretta Falcon never reached full production, and the exact number made is unknown. This particular example is pictured and described on page 125 of "Beretta Automatic Pistols" by J.B. Wood. Blade front and notch rear sights, with "FALCON Cal. 32" on the left side of the slide, "MADE IN ITALY" on the right, smooth trigger and checkered right handed thumbrest grips.

Rating Definition:

Excellent, with 97% plus of the original blue and anodized finish, showing some light handling marks overall. The grips are also excellent, with a few dings on the checkering and some residue on the top of the left panel. Hold-open needs adjustment, otherwise fine.
