Thanks for the reply.
Unfortunately i can't see the pics, there seems to be no link!!??!!.
The one i've got has fixed sights and holds 9 Rds in the mag. The slide catch/latch does not look like the ones i've seen in other pictures.
I've got a 3'5 inch barrel.
Any guesses as to when it was made? The grips also says Beretta right next to the safety but it's a different and much less elaborate logo like the ones i've seen on pics. It's not something like the regular beretta seal if you know what i mean.
Thanks again for your trouble.
NB
