Armi Galesi-Brescia Brevetto Semi-Automatic Pocket Pistol .25 ACP with 2 Inch Barrel
Description
This Armi Galesi-Brescia Brevetto is a compact semi-automatic pocket pistol chambered in .25 ACP (6.35mm). It features a 2-inch barrel and a blued steel finish on both the slide and frame. The pistol is fitted with white synthetic grips that incorporate silver-tone circular medallions bearing the AG monogram within a wreath. Operation is striker-fired with a manual safety lever located at the rear left of the frame and a heel-style magazine release at the base of the grip. The left side of the slide is prominently marked Armi-Galesi-Brescia-Brevetto-Cal.6.35. The right side of the frame is stamped Made in Italy and bears several Italian proof marks, including a PSF under a crown, a star over a shield with crossed rifles, and the Roman numeral XV, which corresponds to a 1959 manufacture date based on Italian proof house codes. The serial number 318437 is stamped on the underside of the frame forward of the trigger guard. This lot includes one detachable box magazine and a camouflage zippered soft case from Brauer Bros. Mfg. Co. Note – All firearms require a federal 4473 background check.
Condition report:
The pistol retains a high percentage of its original blued finish, showing light thinning and edge wear consistent with holstering and carrying, primarily at the muzzle and on the high points of the slide. The white synthetic grips are intact with no visible cracks, though they show minor age-related discoloration and light handling marks. The bore is bright with strong, well-defined rifling. The action appears to function correctly, with a crisp trigger and a positive safety engagement; however, the firearm has not been test-fired. The included magazine and Brauer Bros. soft case are in good, serviceable condition.
