birdsallpl Posted December 4, 2014 Report Share Posted December 4, 2014 My son has a Beretta extrema and the serial number on the stock is different to the serial number on the barrel. I would have thought they should be the same. Does anyone out there in the PW world also have one and can you confirm this is the norm for a Beretta or not please?

fruity Posted December 4, 2014 Report Share Posted December 4, 2014 My outlander differs after gmk replaced the barrel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sishyplops Posted December 4, 2014 Report Share Posted December 4, 2014 Semi auto's are made without the requirement for a precision fit between the action and barrel like an O/U or SxS requires, so Mario just picks up a barrel and puts it on an action that luigi has just finished before they head off for a pizza on their Vespa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they should be the same numbers, how easy will it be to resale. (Should he choose to) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sishyplops Posted December 4, 2014 Report Share Posted December 4, 2014 Most have different numbers, the barrels are in one pile and the actions are in another and the production guys pick up the first one to hand and shove on the nearest action , I have had over 10 beretta semi autos , 4 of which were new and I don't recall any of them having the same number on the action and barrel, if it's on your licence as two numbers then you have to sell it as two numbers on a new buyers cert, my two 303's have different numbers don't worry about it it's not a problem, they're all like that as the saying goes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sitsinhedges Posted December 4, 2014 Report Share Posted December 4, 2014 It's normal. Just use the number on the receiver and forget about the one on the barrel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
