- — Description
CampaignEdit
The Beretta M1938A (referred to as Beretta 1938A in the Bonus Materials) can first be seen in the campaign level "Tankers" in the hands of Italian infantry. It then appears in the missions "Operation Husky" and "Piano Lupo" where it is available to the player. The Beretta M1938A is a fairly reliable and all-purpose weapon. Its low fire rate makes it fairly accurate at medium range, although its low rate of fire may let the player down in close-quarters.
MultiplayerEdit
The Beretta M1938A is available on the Italian maps. It is a fairly reliable weapon. It requires three to four shots to the body to kill at medium range, however its moderate recoil can be somewhat hindering especially at longer ranges. Despite this, it does have enough power to kill at longer ranges. At close ranges, the weapon's lower rate of fire will put it at a disadvantage when compared to other close quarters weapons, such as the American Thompson.
Call of Duty: WWIIEdit
- "Automatic SMG with high recoil and high fire rate."
- — Description
The weapon returns in Call of Duty: WWII as the Orso. It was added in The Resistance event.
MultiplayerEdit
The base variant of the Orso is unlocked by activating the Orso special order from Major Howard in the Headquarters and play a total of fifty matches, whether or not the player wins or loses.
