Beretta

Founded in 1526 in Gardone Val Trompia, Italy, Beretta is the world's oldest active firearms manufacturer with nearly 500 years of continuous operation. The company began as a small forge owned by Bartolomeo Beretta and evolved into a global firearms powerhouse. Beretta shotguns have dominated Olympic shooting sports, winning over 60% of Olympic Trap medals since the sport's introduction in 1900. The company revolutionized shotgun design with innovations like the Mobilchoke system (1985) and continues to set industry standards for quality and performance.
