The Beretta M1938, also known as the Model 38, was an Italian submachine gun developed in the late 1930s. Chambered in 9mm Parabellum, the M1938 was renowned for its accuracy, reliability, and smooth firing mechanism. It was used extensively by Italian forces during World War II and later by various European nations post-war.

The M1938 was adopted by the Italian Army in 1938 and saw action in various theaters during World War II, including North Africa, the Balkans, and Italy. It was particularly prized for its craftsmanship and precision, though its relatively high production cost limited its numbers.

The Beretta M1938 remained in service with Italian and other European forces after the war, and its design influenced later submachine guns. Today, it is considered one of the best submachine guns of World War II and is highly valued by collectors.
