The Bernardelli Model 60 is an elegant, Italian-made pocket pistol chambered in .32 ACP (7.65mm). Manufactured in Italy by Bernardelli, this classic semi-automatic firearm features a compact design, a 3.5" barrel, and is fully C&R Eligible. Constructed with a durable steel frame and slide, the Model 60 utilizes a reliable straight blowback action supported by twin recoil springs to smooth out slide movement, making it a highly collectible piece of mid-century European firearms history.
This single-action handgun features an 8-round single-stack magazine capacity, small fixed sights integrated into the slide, and a classic European-style heel magazine release. Its robust steel construction gives it a solid, durable feel in the hand, while the recoil-absorbing dual-spring design ensures comfortable shooting with standard-velocity .32 ACP ammunition.
This specific piece is a vintage Good/Fair Condition surplus handgun dating to its 1956 production run, marked with the Italian Roman numeral XII date code. It exhibits normal signs of use, including light scratches, finish wear, and a gentle patina with potential for minor rust or corrosion. It retains the majority of its original finish, though the plastic grips and plastic magazine base may show typical vintage wear such as cracks or chips.
