Gentlemen,
Beretta Holdings recently purchased Holland & Holland to go along with their 7 other gun companies. Real glad to see H&H back in the ownership of an old time Gun manufacturer. Great move for both Beretta and H&H! Looking forward to seeing how Beretta handles their most recent purchase, of a Best Gun Company.
all the best,

hoashooter,
I agree Beretta is a very stable old time gun company, according to the article in the SSM Beretta had been looking to acquire a Best gun company in the UK so this will make the Beretta holding company an even bigger gun company. The article indicated Beretta now owns 100% of H&H including the Shooting Grounds.
Ya got to love it.
all the best,

A "best" gun company. Interesting thought considering Beretta's SO series, especially the upper end. They should have a pretty good idea of what goes on over at H&H, making this a very promising team. |

WyoChukar,
Definitely no slight was intended to the Beretta Holding Company, only a complement was intended. In the SSM article on page 22 Doug Tate indicates that Beretta has been looking to acquire a premium luxury brand, I use the word Best gun maker, because H&H is just that. Beretta makes some very good guns, their 680 series gun has a reputation very hard to equal. However H&H has a Best gun reputation hard to equal in its own right. With the Beretta Holding management skills this should be a profitable move for Beretta & H&H for sure. We will see what happens in the future.
all the best,

The current RIFLE magazine has an article on this sale. The seller was CHANEL! The owners were active shoters and hunters and bought H&H in 1989 |

Carlos,
Beretta is an old time gun manufacturing company and Chanel is a perfume manufacturer. You can see why I was so happy that the Beretta Holding Companies purchased H&H. It always irked me that a Perfume manufacturer owned a Great Best Gun Company. It goes to show you how much money is spent on perfume each year, that Chanel could afford to purchase H&H.
Congrats again to Pietro Beretta and the Beretta Holding Company on the full purchase of H&H.
all the best,
