Gardone Val Trompia, 2 December 2021 - The echo of the exploits of Beretta shooters does not go out and with it the gratitude for having given prestige, once again to the performances that the most medalist shotgun of all time and of all competitors, the DT11, is able to to express. And so, on a convivial occasion "made in Brescia", the best, the strongest received the applause of the Gussalli Beretta family: a moment "cloaked" by the Italian flag and culminating in a prestigious gift for each of the medalists at the last Olympic Games : a custom engraved watch delivered by Franco Gussalli Beretta, president of Fabbrica d'Armi P. Beretta SpA.
Vincent Hancock (gold in men's Skeet, USA), Jiří Lipták (gold in the men's Trap, CZE), Fatima Galvez(gold in the Trap Mixed Team, SPA), Alessandra Perillo (silver in the Trap Mixed Team and bronze in the Women's Trap, SMR), Diana Bacosi (silver in women's Skeet, ITA), Jesper Hansen (silver in men's Skeet, DNK), Abdullah Al-Rashidi (bronze in men's skeet, KWT): seven athletes for eight medals. Unfortunately, the Chinese athlete Wei Meng was absent at this convivial moment, who won the non-Olympic title for Beretta in Tokyo in the women's Skeet.
The Beretta family did not want to forget the great performances of some of the finalists, who did not conquer a "metal", but for whom gratitude cannot fail: Silvana Stanco (ITA), Tammaro Cassandro (ITA), Jorge Martin Orozco Diaz (MEX), Eric Delaunay (FRA) and Eetu Kallionen (FIN).
"Thank you all - commented the President Franco Gussalli Beretta - If the memory of your undertaking in Japan is still vivid in our eyes, we cannot help but look up and take aim at what will be and what you will be able to do for the now very close Paris 2024 Olympic campaign. Beretta will always be at your side so that you can focus only on performance: we will be able to make the best of our technology and our passion available to you. In this sense - concludes the President - we are about to launch a new shooting platform that represents the maximum synthesis of our knowledge combined with your extraordinary skills.".
