This is an excellent example of an original U.S. Army issue Beretta M9 General Officers pistol. This model was introduced in 1986 based on the continuing need for the U.S. Military to be able to issue service automatic pistols to newly promoted General Officers. This specific pistol was issued to BG Harold L. Timboe MD., who was the Commander of the 44th Medical Brigade from Nov 1994-March 1997. These pistols in all respects were a standard Beretta M9 handgun only they were identified by a special serial number prefix of "GO". The documentation with the pistol indicated that MG Timboe purchased this pistol in June 2002 from the Army and later sold it to Colonel Harvey Siefer with a line of additional sales. The right side of the frame is marked: "U.S. 9mm M9 BERETTA U.S.A.65490" with the left side marked with serial number: "GO-1386", indicating it was a fairly late issue pistol. The left and right sides of the slide (respectfully) have the standard factory markings of "U.S. 9mm M9-BERETTA U.S.A.-65490" followed by the Beretta factory, circled "PB" logo and "ASSY 9346487-65490" followed by the etched "PM" marking. The slide is fitted with the standard fixed white dot front and rear combat sights, and it has ambidextrous safety levers, ring hammer and lanyard loop on the heel of the frame. They are fitted with standard checkered, black plastic grips with the P. Beretta factory logo on each grip panel. It comes with one all blued replacement magazine that is marked "PRO MAG" on the underside of the base plate with no other accessories or issue items.

Excellent with 99% of the factory black finish overall showing only minor edge and high spot wear, with little evidence of actually having been fired. The grips are also in excellent condition. A rare example of a late production current U.S. Army issue Beretta M9 General Officers pistol.
