Hello all, do any members here have any experience with the m1951 beretta? I am thinking of picking one up to add to the collection. In particular I am interested in weather the ones that were 1975-1976 production are strong enough for long term reliability since they switched back to the alloy frame in 1975. Does the "newer" alloy compare to steel framed examples?
From what I gather the alloy is the same as used on the 92s. Were the later models less prone to locking block failure? Any information or stories regarding these pistols are appreciated.
