My last all forged steel baby...
Bernardelli Practical Elite in 9x21.
A vault in the body of a Bentley!
I've been wanting her from my time in Bernardelli...when I was too poor to buy it.
Now I found it for 570€... It was 4.700.000 Lire at the time (1996). In € it would be 2.427, without considering the devaluation of the 24 years passed by...
Today it would be impossible to sell as new.

Now theres a pretty sweet heirloom of the future! Wow! Command forked out for those? We just got beer when we came in from the field. I had missed his birthday while he was there, Christmas was close, and I thought he deserved a welcome Home present, so I spent more than I probably should have, but I just thought if youre going to get him a gun, make it a special gun

You mean the Bernardelli?
Works fine.
She likes to be beaten (heavy loads), then she’ll give you her best.

Well no, everyone pitched in, plus some donations from outside the command.
