The serial number listings by month presented below were developed by Scott Duff, a recognized authority on and author of a series of books on the M1 Garand. The following information can be found in the books 'The M1 Garand: WWII' and 'The M1 Garand Serial Numbers and Data Sheets' found at Fulton Armory, and are used here with Mr. Duff's permission.

The serial numbers seem to start from 400.000, and one example from 1933 of the civilian model which we have examined was numbered just under 402.000. Aug 14, 2012 I purchased my Beretta Mod. 92F when they became available to the public many years ago, just after the Military adoped the pistol. The serial number is DO1625Z and it has a steel frame and possibly stainless steel. It has Made in Italy on the right side and has Beretta USA on the left. It's new and not fired.
The Manufacturer warrants that this firearm was manufactured free of defects in material or workmanship; and for a period of one (1) year after date of original purchase, the Manufacturer and/or its local official Distributor/s (as listed here) agree to correct any such defect in this firearm by repair or replacement (at their discretion. Dec 26, 2004 The manufacture date for Beretta shotguns is marked next to or close to the Italian proof marks on the barrel and the receiver. This is true for O/Us and Semi-autos made in Italy. 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.
If there is a 'Y' at the end of your serial number, please omit this character when entering your serial number. Thanks for choosing Beretta! Enter your Serial Number: Example: PX53268.
