very nice looking berettas I've always liked the m35 and to have one SA marked would be really cool.

sweet~!

Was to the range today, the M15 is definitely the better shooter so far, the bullets do not care about the rough bore

The M35 need a littel drifting of the rearsight.

Just doing a little page turning. Seems the Model 35 was really the same as the Model 34 and made during the WWII years largely for German troops in Italy, but the Model 35 was in 7.65 and the original Model 34 in 9mm corto.

I've got a not particularly good condition Model 34 made in 1938. It has a replacement .380 ACP barrel and magazine. Biggest problem is that for my average size hand it is too small for a confortable grip. That curved extension on the magazine for the pinkie finger wasn't just for looks. If it weren't there the pistol would be even more difficult to manage when fired.

A finnish marked M34 is still on my wishlist, normal M34 are around here in Germany, mostly in real good condition.

Strangely I could hit better with the M15, pinky curled unter the magazine.

Maybe its the sights, the M35 are too tight, not much light between the front and rear, not a good sight picture.

Nearly the same with my little SA stamped Sauer&Sohn M1913, can't barely hold it, but it hit nice!

EDIT: Sorry, no spell check

Maybe you got the proper grip down and I don't. Have to try it next time and see how it feels.

On the M35 my pinky fits on the mag extension, got smaller hands

On some of those pocket pistols it is essential to grip them low, because otherwise one gets a bite by the hammer or slide.

My S&S M1913 got me real bad on the first range session!!!
