Several years later I mentioned to a friend who customizes pistols that I would love to replace the mainspring housing with one that had a lanyard loop. He said the pistol also had a plastic trigger. He pawed through his old parts and was able to find the lanyard loop and an original long metal trigger.
Then all I needed was something for carrying it. I got a custom made brown left-handed military holster and a WW I belt and a two magazine pouch.
So now that part of my collection is complete.
Sweet,
You can still find
Military Surplus items
For that but it’s
Drying out.
Plenty of Beretta gear
Should be coming
On the market.
