Talk:Beretta M12

I think that this page should be moved to the Beretta M12 section because the weapon actually is a Beretta M12. But I think it should be decided by popular vote.- User:TheDon152

Yes, the two pages should be consolidated. The "info" needs to be changed as well. It says the M12s is a "folding stock variant of the M12". Well, both the M12 and the M12s have folding stocks, there really is no difference in that regard. There was a wooden stock option for the M12, but as far as I know, it wasn't that common. Perhaps the writer of this article thought the M12 only came with a wooden stock? The major difference between the two versions is the safety. The M12 has a bush button safety, separate from the fire selector lever, while the M12s incorporates the safety with the fire selector lever.--Phillb36 21:21, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Whoa, I wonder who the hell did this? But yes, thanks for alerting me, I'll get this sorted at once. -MT2008 05:26, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Alright, fixed. -MT2008 05:29, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Weird aside I know but I was watching Ken Burns' The Vietnam War when, during an episode about the Tet Offensive, the showed a CIA guy hosing a window of the American embassy during the siege with what was clearly an M12. --Charon68 (talk) 19:35, 19 July 2018 (EDT)

I don't think that guy was necessarily CIA, the Marines guarding the embassy had a stock of Beretta SMGs. This was apparently the first time the gun was ever used in combat. --commando552 (talk) 20:01, 19 July 2018 (EDT)
