Nice, you can see how the finish quality had fallen off by 1944-45, gone is the Beretta deep blue, the high polish , but I bet the functionality remains just fine.

Yep, I took it and the cz27 out today. The balance is exquisite. It takes down in 20 seconds, Hell, the barrel pops out with no tools, without removing the slide!
The easiest pistol to clean that I have ever owned.

Nice. It looks like the baby brother of my Beretta 92 FS.

That 4UT is a German contract is true. My former neighbor was a WW II veteran and he showed me a Beretta 4UT and holster that he took from a German soldier when my former neighbor was in Northern Italy in (I think) late 1944. The Germans were in caves in the mountains. He even had pictures of himself with the Beretta and pictures of the captured German soldiers. He also took a Browning Hi-Power from another German soldier and had pictures of himself holding the Browning.
