Highly Desirable Documented
U.S. Army Issue Beretta M9 General
Officers Model Semi-Automatic Pistol Assigned to
Brigadier General Roger C. Bultman with Accessories - Serial
no. GO-00722, 9 mm para cal., 5 inch round bbl., black finish, plastic
grips. This is an excellent example of a U.S. Army issue Beretta M9
General Officers pistol. This model was introduced in 1986 based on
the continuing need for the U.S. military to be able to issue service
automatic pistols to newly promoted general officers. This specific pistol
appears to have been issued to Brigadier General Roger C. Bultman.
At the time, he was stationed in the office of Chief of Army Reserves at
the Pentagon and had previously held various leadership roles during
the Vietnam War. The included general supply shipment worksheet lists
Bultman as the recipient. These pistols in all respects were a standard
Beretta M9 handgun only they were identified by a special serial number prefix of “GO”. The right side of
the frame is marked: “U.S. 9mm M9 BERETTA U.S.A.65490” with the left side marked with serial number: “GO-
00722”. The left and right sides of the slide (respectfully) have the standard factory markings of “U.S. 9mm
M9-BERETTA U.S.A.-65490” followed by the Beretta factory, circled “PB” logo and “ASSY 9346442-65490” followed
by the etched “PM” marking. The slide is fitted with the standard fixed white dot front and rear combat sights,
and it has ambidextrous safety levers, ring hammer and lanyard loop on the heel of the frame. It is fitted with
standard checkered, black plastic grips with the P. Beretta factory logo on each grip panel. Includes a Bianchi holster, dual magazine pouch, two extra factory packaged magazines, and an extra M9
slide and left grip panel (both factory packaged).
CONDITION: Excellent, retains 99% plus of the original black finish with only the slightest handling marks. The grips are also excellent with only the slightest handling marks and crisp checkering. Mechanically
excellent. The accessories apart from the holster are excellent and mostly factory packaged, with the holster showing some light wear.
Provenance: Brigadier General Roger C. Bultman; Private Collection.
Estimate: 6,500 - 9,500
