Bersa

Bersa is an Argentine arms manufacturer, located in Argentina. The company was founded in the mid-1950s by Italian immigrants Benso Bonadimani, Ercole Montini and Savino Caselli, all of them mechanical engineers. Montini worked for Beretta in Italy.

In 1960 the name “Bersa” was introduced, taken from the initial letters of the founders’ first names. Many more successful models in increasingly more powerful calibers were produced in the following years, making Bersa a well-known and respected name in the firearms world.
