causes the barrel and slide assembly to move to the rear. After a short distance, the barrel is forced down and is stopped by the operation of the barrel cam and disconnect pin interface. The slide continues its rearward travel under inertia, extracting the fired case from the barrel and ejecting it through the ejection port. The recoil spring pushes the slide forward, feeding the next cartridge from the magazine into the firing chamber. Continued forward movement causes the barrel cam to raise the barrel into its locked position in the slide. The slide will be retained in the open position by the slide catch after the last cartridge has been fired and the fired shell casing ejected. AMMUNITION AMMUNITION (CARTRIDGE) NOTICE: Beretta specifically disclaims responsibility for any damage or injury occurring with, or as the result of using faulty, non-standard, "remanufactured", hand-loaded or reloaded ammunition, or cartridges other than those for which the firearm was originally chambered. Serious damage or injury, even death, could result from the use of incorrect ammunition, from firing against bore obstructions and from propellant overloads. Use of improper ammunition, such as listed previously, will void the manufacturer's warranty. Use only high-quality, commercially-manufactured ammunition made in accordance with CIP (Europe and elsewhere) or SAAMI® (USA) standards. Be certain that the ammunition is the appropriate caliber and loading for the firearm and is clean, dry and in good condition. The caliber of the pistol is marked on the back of the barrel, visible from the ejection port. NOTICE: The Beretta Pico is designed to safely use the ammunition marked as +P. The extended use of +P ammunition may decrease the component part service life expectancy. DO NOT fire old ammunition. Primers, powder, cartridge cases, and bullets can deteriorate with time and cause damage to the firearm or injury to the shooter or others. 17
