  • Italy's Contribution to the Mexican Powder
    Italy’s contribution to the Mexican powder keg Most small arms and light weapons imported into Mexico come from the United States, but most of the rest are manufactured in Italy. In the last twelve years, Italy has been the second largest exporter of non-military guns, rifles and ammunition in Mexico, far ahead of other important exporters such as the Czech Republic, Spain, France, Austria, Belgium, South Korea, and Israel. On average, Italian companies have sold and shipped ten thousand pistols and revolvers and 1,100 rifles to the Mexican market every year for the past twelve years. Many Italian ‘civilian weapons’ have been also sold to Colombia and Guatemala, probably feeding the grey and black market. In the same period of 2007-2018, Mexico has been the second largest Latin American customer of military weapons produced in Italy, after Brazil. Apart from major weapons systems produced by Leonardo, Beretta group dominates Italian military exports to Mexico: in the same twelve-year period, it sold at least 50 million euros worth of weapons (data is in round figures because Italian government reports on military exports are tricky to interpret). What did the Beretta group sell to Mexican armed forces? - More than 17,150 SCP 70/90 automatic assault - 303 Sako TRG 22 sniper rifles; rifles (5.56x45 NATO caliber), and 23,000 spare parts for these rifles, in particular ammunition - 3,030 guns (40 caliber); magazines of 30 rounds, since the rifle can fire - 505 rifles (22LR caliber); 670 rounds per minute at a distance of up to 300 meters; - 505 guns (22LR caliber); - More than 19,000 ARX 160 assault rifles - 13,130 guns (9x19 mm caliber); (5.56x45 NATO caliber) and 16,000 spare parts; - 2,020 guns (9 caliber short or .380 auto); - 650 GLX 160 grenade launchers, adaptable to - 1,010 Stoeger rifles (12 caliber).

  • La Produzione Di Armi in Italia
    Istituto di Ricerche Internazionali ARCHIVIO DISARMO Piazza Cavour 17 - 00193 Roma tel. 0636000343 fax 0636000345 email: [email protected] www.archiviodisarmo.it Luigi Barbato LA PRODUZIONE DI ARMI IN ITALIA Roma, 8 gennaio 2008 PREFAZIONE L’industria militare italiana è andata profondamente trasformandosi nel corso degli ultimi anni sia in relazione alle mutate condizioni di mercato, sia ai nuovi assetti internazionali, che richiedono una maggiore capacità di operare su scala globale. Per questo sia negli Stati Uniti, sia in Europa si sono andati costruendo pochi grandi gruppi industriali che operano sinergicamente per massimizzare i profitti, per razionalizzare le strutture produttive e per ridurre i costi. L’Istituto di ricerche internazionali Archivio Disarmo, sin dalla sua fondazione, segue con attenzione la produzione militare, conscio della particolare delicatezza della materia anche in relazione alle esportazioni che a volte si sono rivolte verso paesi oggetto di preoccupazione da parte di istituzioni e di organismi internazionali in merito al rispetto dei diritti umani e a situazioni di conflittualità più o meno latente. Il rapporto “La produzione di armi in Italia” di Luigi Barbato intende fotografare questo settore al termine del 2007, cercando di offrire un quadro il più possibile esaustivo sulle diverse società del comparto (assetti produttivi, occupazionali, tecnologici, ecc.). In questa complessa panoramica è opportuno sottolineare come in diversi casi sia rilevabile una produzione duale, cioè con applicazioni possibili sia campo militare, sia in quello civile, che stanno a dimostrare le potenzialità (non sempre sfruttate al massimo) di questo comparto anche nel settore civile (beni culturali, sicurezza stradale, protezione ambientale, energie alternative ecc.).

  • Opening of a New Beretta Plant in the United States
    PRESS RELEASE OPENING OF A NEW BERETTA PLANT IN THE UNITED STATES The group aims to further grow in the most important market of the world which already represents over 50% of its total turnover The new facility will house the Research and Development division and the entire production of Beretta USA Gallatin (TN), April 15, 2016 - Beretta Holding has today inaugurated its new production site in the United States, a country that is by far the first of the group's market by size (more than 50% of sales) and strategic importance. This new facility will house the entire R&D and manufacturing division of Beretta USA which, while keeping its historical headquarters in Maryland, will now count on a state-of-the-art production plant that will allow for a significant increase in production capacity. This modern plant is based on the highest standard of the “lean production” and features cutting edge industrial and information technologies, which will allow to greatly increase the efficiency of the production processes. The search for the right location for the new plant has been a long and challenging process, which has seen both the managers of Beretta USA and the Gussalli Beretta family in person evaluating many available options within the United States. In the end the choice has been the State of Tennessee and the city of Gallatin, also thanks to the strong and valuable support provided by all administrative and political authorities - with the decisive contribution of Governor Bill Haslam - who have facilitated the significant new investment made by the group, in the order of tens of millions of Euros, that will translate into a major positive contribution to the development of the local community.
