The History of Beretta

The Beretta company has a rich and storied history that dates back to the year 1526. It all began when Mastro Bartolomeo Beretta sold 185 harquebus barrels to the Venice Arsenal. The production of firearms has remained within the family to this day, making Beretta the oldest active firearms manufacturer in the world.

In the early 1800s, Pietro Antonio Beretta traveled throughout Italy to promote the quality of his products and secure new orders. Despite the challenges posed by foreign rule, he honed his skills in crafting barrels for smooth-bore shotguns and pistols. He eventually registered the company under the official name, Fabbrica d'Armi Pietro Beretta. By the end of the 17th century, Beretta had established itself as the second-largest manufacturer of gun barrels in Gardone Val Trompia, Italy.

In 1918, the Italian army adopted the use of the Beretta Model 1918, a groundbreaking submachine gun. During World War 2, the company was required to manufacture weapons for the Italian regime, even though its political views were predominantly liberal. However, some of the production was carried out secretly to supply the Partisans, which resulted in the German SS confiscating the company in 1943. The German forces even took Pietro Beretta, the head of the company, hostage. In response, the Partisans raided the Brescia town, successfully regaining control of the factory.

Following the War, Beretta altered the design of the M1 to create the Beretta BM-59 rifle, which resembled the M14 battle rifle. However, their production shifted towards firearms for the civilian market after the War. In the 1970s, Beretta entered into an agreement with the Brazilian government to produce firearms for the Brazilian Army. This collaboration lasted until 1980. In the 1980s, the Beretta 92 pistol was chosen to be the standard service handgun of the United States Army.

Although Beretta is primarily known for their semi-automatic pistols, such as the Model 1915, M1923, 418, M1934/M1935, M1951, and 70 series, they have also manufactured a variety of other weapons including revolvers, submachine guns, grenade launchers, and rifles and carbines like the BM-59, 501 (sporting rifle), Rx4 Storm, Cx4 Storm, and BRX1 straight-pull bolt-action rifle. In addition, Beretta has a long tradition of producing side-by-side shotguns, over-and-under shotguns and semi-automatic shotguns offered in various grades, with some of the popular models being the A400, A300, Beretta 686, DT10, AL391 etc.

Beretta Holding is currently the parent company of several subsidiary firms, including Beretta USA, Benelli, Tikka, Stoeger, SAKO, Uberti, Franchi, and Burris Optics. Today in 2023, the company Fabbrica d'Armi Pietro Beretta, also known as Beretta S.p.A., is led by Franco Gussalli Beretta who serves as the President and CEO. The company has been owned by the same family for nearly five hundred years, a testament to its longevity and heritage. Its legacy has been passed down through generations, continuing to innovate and adapt to the changing needs of its customers.
