You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

For guns since 1975, you will find a mark that is a small square with a 2 character code inside the square. Before 1975 the code was a roman numerial. The mark is about 1/4" square. For instance, the code for 2004 is BU and for 2003 is BT.
Check out this webpage pointer on the Beretta USA website. The list of codes is given with year of manufacture going back to 1945.
