Question i have a 32 cal semi and all i would like to know if you can tell me the maker.all i can tell you is on the grops is a circle with a fancy PB inside ,it was given to me about 38 years ago.iwas cleaning all my guns and got currious .i live in delaware.
Answer Well, just as the link you click on said, I can't tell you the history or value of your guns, but in this case I can tell you that the PB stands for "Pietro Beretta." My guess would have been the .32 Tomcat, but that only was introduced in 1979, so it must be something else. If you contact a knowledgeable gun shop or Beretta with a picture they'll be able to tell you what you have. Good luck.
