Beretta - Forging Precision & Performance Since 1526
Beretta traces its origins to 1526 — when a master-barrel maker, Bartolomeo Beretta, supplied arquebus barrels to the arsenal of the Republic of Venice — making it the oldest continuously operating firearms manufacturer in the world. Over more than fifteen generations, Beretta has grown from small-scale arms-barrel forging to a global leader in firearms, producing a comprehensive lineup: side-by-side and over-under shotguns, semi-automatic shotguns and rifles, bolt-action rifles, submachine guns, pistols (including the famed 9 mm series), competition/hunting guns, and accessories. Today, Beretta serves civilians, hunters, sport shooters, law enforcement, and military users worldwide — offering not just weapons but a heritage of craftsmanship, decades of refinement, and trusted reliability under demanding conditions.
