During its 41 years of production, this neat little Beretta has had several model designations. Some have called the original version “Model 1919,” because of the patent date on the slide. The factory reference, though, is Model 1920. In that form, it was made until 1934. In 1935 and 1936, a change in the grip-frame shape made it the Model 318. Between 1937 and 1961, it was the Model 418. A few small mechanical differences will be noted in the takedown steps.
