Found a nice (to me) 1934 made in 36. Its a really nice little 380! Yet looking at this thing, I found it interesting it has such a long service life. The swing over safety is very strange to me, makes me wonder how the Italians carried it for so long? I would not think it safe to carry cocked and locked, with as fiddly (for me) safety. It does not seem like it would make much sense. Wondering if anyone here had more wisdom on how the Italians used it, in military.. but more curious about the police work and the like. I suppose using two hands it would be easy enough to swing the safety over... but I dont see it being very good for concealed carry, even back in the 30s.
Would love to hear what you all think about it. Its neat that it has such a long service life, and just wanting to learn more about that. It had to be popular for a reason, and mine is a real nice shooter. I am just trying to think of how I would use it if I had to duty carry it and such.
Thanks for reading!
