Default Beretta Buys H&H!

Good news or sad news for that storied gunmaker at Kensal Rise. You decide...


𝐁𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐚 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐬 𝐝𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐚𝐜𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐋𝐭𝐝.
One of the most iconic gunmakers in the World, this company is steeped in history and represents the pinnacle of handmade premium firearms. To become custodians of this famous name is an enormous honour and bears a huge responsibility, as we wish to preserve its precious heritage and dedication to skilled craftmanship. This acquisition further solidifies the Beretta Holding Group’s commitment to the key UK market in this post Brexit era.

Good to see an old company steeped in tradition taking over an upstart.

That sounds like great news for both organizations, and for sportsmen. Two of the great gun makers combined. Beretta acquires an incredible name in gun making. H & H now enjoys the huge financial backing of the world’s oldest manufacturing company, and maker of outstanding guns themselves. If there was ever a win-win, this appears to be it. And for shooters, perhaps H&H will now produce guns for under a measly $100K��

Could be worse. And in case we have some very politically correct people I might offend, thank GOD the Chinese didn't buy it.

On balance, I suppose it's more fitting than Chanel Holdings as current owners of Purdey's...

Beretta makes good guns. Not Parkers, but good quality for the money
