Beretta 1915 .32ACP/7.65mm
Hello,
After much research I have found out that a pistol I have acquired is indeed a Beretta model 1915 .32ACP/7.65mm. It shoots ok, except it seems that it occasionally cycles 2 shells, ejecting a live round, maybe 1 in 20 rounds. Or it sometimes stovepipes, maybe 1 in 15 rounds. From the little that I have learned about this sort of thing it seems to need a new recoil spring and clip. I would classify it as in good condition with matching serial numbers, but make/model markings are hard/impossible to make out. After much looking I have not been able to find a location to get any replacement parts (recoil spring, grips). Any suggestions? In addition, I want a pistol for shooting and piece of mind for keeping at home. Would I be better off spending the money (if parts are possible to get) or saving it and applying it to something better, probably one of the Beretta 92 models, a year or so down the road? Theres not much money to go around right now.
Thanks so much for looking!

I really doubt you need a recoil spring, and any decent gunsmith can adjust the feed lips on your magazine.
At any rate, some parts are available from http://www.gun-parts.com/beretta/0
