Beretta Handguns Approved for Sale in Massachusetts

Approved List Updated January 2003

On February 15, 2002 the Executive Office of Public Safety in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts approved a number of Beretta handguns for sale in that state. These handgun models had all previously been tested and certified by Beretta U.S.A. for sale within the State of Massachusetts. The Attorney General of Massachusetts, which also has developed regulations relating to the sale of handguns in that state, was also provided with this list of approved models and has not disagreed with Beretta's certification that these models may be sold in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

Beretta U.S.A. Corp. ships the approved handgun models for sale to distributors, dealers and retail consumers who wish to purchase these products for sale in Massachusetts. As of January 2003, the model handguns in question are:

All Beretta handgun models authorized for sale in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts will also include a warning notice required by the Attorney General of Massachusetts. If any Beretta customer purchases or obtains a Beretta handgun for sale or resale to Massachusetts and that handgun does not include such a warning, please contact Beretta U.S.A's Customer Service Department to obtain the required warning.

Future editions of Beretta models to the Roster of handguns approved for sale in Massachusetts may be found at http://www.mass.gov/eops. Handguns other than those listed on the Massachusetts are not authorized for sale to retail customers in Massachusetts. This restriction includes sales to law enforcement customers.
