Hello everyone..seems this is a verry easy thing to deal with.steel shot...never in my life have i hurd so much **** going around.i think in the back of all our minds we realy do have to think about what the greens and government have done to stop you shooting..and cut some shooter back.to nill...the scheming buy others well dont get down.all is easy to do...if you have a realy old gun dont shoot steel..if you have a 70s to 80..s gun half choke.do a little investigation on the web..help others buy not placing silly coments on site like there going to die or having a explosion...it will only loose a shooter.and we need you all.i live in australia and we have had a real number done on us..but i wont be quitting.on shooting.its upto us all..to get it right.steel is in..i dont like it but im not going to stop the love ....i wish we had bismith in ozz...i would go for it...i have seen sales there...wish i could get a case...but can not...

I was thinking that if anyone has a friend italian that can send a letter there to the museum in gardone....we all may get a reply sooner.the museum holds all records of the gun making in the area.its abit like the founderies steel works of Sheffield in the uk...i have a big knife collection from all over the world.and have a big interest in steels..Sheffield had alot of steel makers in there area.and i have at least 20 brands of knifes with different logos.same thing with german steel.ice hardened...made were the steel works were in Germany and were the bouncing bomb was let off.good steel came from different areas around the world.the list gos on and on..i did find a add for the armi brescia gardone shotgun..and had what looks to be a coppy of a bereta pistol.on a closer look the safety is in a different location.so i cheched my books to see if the Beretta and the army was the same.there different.will keep looking. Hawkfanz ..no my gun is verry heavey Ingraved xx9 ..1973.mod....same stock..

Its a very interesting gun .we do know there was a gun shop ran buy arturo mino armi...and we do know there was a top barrel maker there....as well.just think that the steel that was used in there guns would have been the same steel used in a gladiators sword...as the steel used came from the same area.we know the steel is of high quality.some one would have a book on the guns..i have alot of old gun book but do not show italian guns my books go back to the 50.s..maybe some older person at bereta may have some knowledge.but getting help...mmmm may be hard.still waiting on the info from gardone museum..

If you google..armi brescia gardone vt..or arturo mino armi...you will come across pictures on the web ..mine is there...hard to find out more information on this maker..must be listed in a book somewhere.my laptop is not working and phone is only way of communicating at presant ..not that good..will try later

Hold on to it....i have just got one..have fun with it...its a keeper...

I never used wd40 after one shooting day out and found rust already going on over the barrels...40 years ago in a gun shop i came acrosd 2 sailors of a battle ship docked in melbourne australia.they said they used a product called inox..and showed me a can of it.they used 44 gallon drums of it.ever since that time.i never used anything else.have shot in solty water lakes and the rest with no issues at all.once a year as old timmers do.i grab toilet paper the cheapest one..tuff and hard..and buff out my barrels.leaving them bright and shiny..those old tricks do work.so out side and in only go for inox spray..leaves the rest for dead.and in choke area..or screw in chokes you will need a solvent..to remove plasic..thats it...simply simple...old dog tricks that work.
