Photo Of The Day: Beretta USA has partnered with Howe Arms on a limited-edition run of 92XI pistols, known as the Foreign Combat Series. Howe Arms, founded by Afghanistan veteran Richard Howe, employs disabled combat veterans and supports their families through its firearms customization work.

This series features hand-painted Beretta 92XI pistols finished in camouflage patterns inspired by European military forces. Each pistol is finished by disabled veterans, using historically accurate camouflage schemes including Vegetato (Italy), Desert DPM (UK), Flecktarn (Germany), Frog Skin (France), and Splinter (Sweden).

Pictured here is the 92XI Foreign Combat “Garno” model. While the base firearm remains a standard-production Beretta 92XI, the custom finishes reflect the connection between military service and firearm heritage.

Splinter camouflage, officially known as M90, is the standard pattern used in the Swedish Armed Forces’ uniform system, introduced in the late 1980s. Characterized by its sharp-edged geometric shapes, the design was developed to provide effective concealment in Sweden’s temperate forests and open terrain. Over time, the pattern was expanded with desert and winter variants. By the late 1990s, M90 had been adopted across the entire Swedish military.

The price starts from $969. This is probably the first Beretta 92 I ever liked. How about you?
