This was my first ever GBB and it got me hooked!
The Beretta is rather like her fellow Italian, Monica Bellucci...she either does it for you in big way or not at all 
As you can expect from WA, appearance-wise it is PERFECT and the only out-of-box issues you might have are the slightly rattly mag well (just stick 3/4" of the fluffy half of some Velco tape inside the back of the mag-well) and the sometimes dodgy slide release (it may randomnly fail to lock open on an empty magazine...again a bit of Velcro tape inside the grip panel helps keep the slide lever tight against the frame).
Also, don't forget to periodically tighten the tiny grub screws on the safety latch or put a dab of Loctite into the threaded hole to secure them.
It WILL loosen from time to time (I'm a lefty so I notice it straight away) and you DO NOT want to lose it!
Its finish is superb and despite being plastic it probably has the most metallic sound I've ever heard
All the trades are there and the WA markings are on the frame below the slide, so they arent too noticeable...
The trigger is very nice, just a touch lighter than it needs to be but this helps accuracy in any case.
Only downsides are the lack of good upgrades nowadays and the 134a-only rule that goes with WA's non-SCW models.
I've replaced the plastic grip panels with a set of Hogue rubber grips and this has improved the feel of the pistol a
quite a bit.
It feels better than any other GBB I've ever handled 
Despite its advancing years, it is ULTRA reliable...my Beretta has never had a single failure since I fixed the mag release almost 3 years ago! Nuts!
Firesupport have these for not much more than a TM Sig P226...so go get one and prove yourself not to be some tasteless airsoft neanderthal!
