I have acquired a Beretta .22 LR pistol. There are no model markings. Depending upon the source I look at, it is apparently a model 70 or 71, and one source cited it as being a model 100. It is an older model with the push button safety toward the top of the grip frame. I am need of a magazine or two for it. Can anyone help with identification and possibly a source for mags?

  There is a really confusing situation regarding the identification of these Beretta's.
  The basic series number for these pistols is the "70 series" ( push button safety at top rear of grip ).
  Beretta identified the different calibers by the model numbers "M-71", "M-72", etc.etc.
  To make a long story short, yours is the "Model-71" also known and marketed as the "Jaguar".
  Triple K Manufacturing of San Diego ( the magazine people ) has your magazine listed in their catalog as number, #460
  Many on-line retailers carry Triple K magazines.
