[QUOTE="aarondhgraham, post: 3292320, member: 13337"] Well I picked up my new-to-me Beretta Thursday evening,,, I am very pleased with the gun and it's condition. It's definitely used,,, But not abused. If any of you are tempted by this gun,,, Know one thing about it. For the $209.00 price you get a Beretta 81,,, For $229 you can get a Beretta 81BB. I didn't notice the BB when I made the order,,, I think I would have spent the extra $20.00 if I had. There's nothing wrong about the base model,,, But I already own a very nice 85BB,,, Matching would have been nice. Here are the first pics of my new baby. [b][Broken External Image][/b] [b][Broken External Image][/b] As you can see the gun isn't banged up at all,,, There are no dings or scratched in the metal. The slide does show holster wear on all of the high points,,, But they aren't objectionable at all,,, They just show normal wear. I can fix that with some cold blue if I decide to,,, But for now I'll leave her alone. The one surprise was the roll mark,,, While it is on the bottom of the trigger guard,,, It's deeply stamped and painted with some white filler. [b][Broken External Image][/b] Again, it's not all that bad,,, I'll just use some black enamel if it starts to bother me. It would have been nice if Classic would have disclosed it though. After an hour of fondling it I am very pleased with the purchase,,, $209.00 base price for a Beretta pistol is a real deal. I picked up some ball ammo for the gun,,, Hopefully I will be able to range test her tomorrow. Aarond . [/QUOTE]
