The Brazilians have produced a replica under the license called the PT92. Gendarmerie, where it is called the MAS G1. Beretta is the designer of the famous Beretta 92, which replaces the Colt 1911 in the American Army as the M9. All its weapons are offered in various calibers and many different levels of finish. The product range of Beretta is very wide, taking in over-and-under and side-by-side shotguns for hunting and firing ranges, automatic and pump-action rifles, as well as semi-automatic handguns, submachine guns, assault rifles and light machine-guns. The Fabbrica d'Armi Pietro Beretta (Pietro Beretta Arms Factory) traces its origins to 1526, when an arms manufacturer from Gardone Val Trompia in the province of Brescia, Mastro Bartolomeo Beretta, received 296 ducats in payment for 185 harquebusiers sold to the Arsenal of Venice. In 1891, Colt worked with a certain John Moses Browning, father of the Colt 1911. In 1873, the first revolver with metal cartridges was invented and it was given the name 'Peacemaker,' but it was better known as the SAA (Single Action Army).

His wife Elisabeth took over and continued to make the Colt Firearms Company prosper. In 1861, Colt stopped selling guns to the Confederate Army. In mid-1960, when the United States descended into Civil War, Colt supplied to both the soldiers of the Confederation and those of the Union. In 1856, the Colt Paten Firearms Manufacturing Company was producing 150 revolvers per day. In 1851, Colt set up business in his native Hartford. At the age of 16, he boarded a ship bound for India and during the journey, he carved a wooden prototype of a handgun having a revolving cylinder with several chambers for bullets, thereby inventing the revolver. As a youth, he passed the time stripping down and reassembling his father's firearms. Samuel Colt was born in Hartford, Connecticut on July 19, 1814.
