The Prop Store have a hero Beretta for sale (squared trigger guard, modified sights, hammer etc) - first time I've seen one available.
If nothing else there are some superb reference pics for those of you not able to splash £4000 on a movie prop;

It's clear that many of the replicas that have been made are very close to the real thing.
I had no idea that one of the Die Hard 2 Berettas had ended up being used for this, though I did know that the same guns often do the rounds in this way.
Still my favourite movie gun along with the Aliens pulse rifle, and indeed still one of my favourite movies (used to lurk here a lot, post occasionally).
