As many know - on various gun forums, I have posted pics of my "Wheel-O-Berettas"
(see below)

Anyway, someone from Beretta saw my ever growing "wheel" on another gun forum and contacted me. For being such a fan of the Beretta 92, he sent me a hat and some stickers. That's pretty cool, since it was a surprise. Very nice of the guy!!! They came in today :)

That's very generous of them; spend thousands on some guns and get a hat and stickers!
Lol just kidding, that's a pretty cool gesture from a big corp.

Yeah that pic has gotten around.
You do like your 92s don't you? :)
Good for them, and that wheel of yours has nearly cost me a few hundred bucks, every time I see it!
Love the "new" compact 92, and it makes me miss my old single stack Italian 92 that I owned in 1990!
Glad they made contact with you, to show their appreciation for your enthusiasm!
That's really great!
You were certainly a great influence on me. :cool:

I guess it's good that some of us knew ya' before you became such a Celebrity. Otherwise you'd probably not even talk to us "lowly" folks. :rofl:
Congrats on the score of the hat and stickers. I'm sure Beretta can use all the free advertising that they can get. :supergrin:
I knew ship back when it was a Beretta swastika
You certainly deserved this recognition.
You did a lot of good work for them :)

And now for something completely unrelated...
I just figured out your username. :faint:
Every time I glanced at it in the past I thought it was just something in German. Lolz on me. :rofl:

That's cool of Beretta, then again, next to the US military, you are their best customer.:wavey:

Funny how someone sees something not there.. Why should I mention someone's ridiculous comment?

You would think BAC should at least be getting swag from carpet companies.

Very nice. A big cudos to Beretta. Sometimes it's the nice little things that make a difference in reputation & opinion.
I would think they would send you a calendar and a t-shirt too
