Bernardelli is (was) an Italian firearms manufacturer in the Val Tromp dating back to the 1600s...but whom few people have ever heard of. They produced 1889 Bodeo revolvers between the World Wars, and after World War Two they had a line of pocket pistols that were never particular popular or respectable in the US.
In 1982, the company released the P018, its effort to create a military and police service pistol. On paper, it was basically completely average for the time. It used a Browning tilting-barrel system, DA/SA firing mechanism, right-handed manual safety and magazine release, steel frame, and double-stack 15-round magazines. It was quite well made, and worked very well. It just never managed to be at the right place and the right time, and was never adopted by any organizations of significance.
A series of pistols followed the original P018, including the P018 Compact, P018S (this example; with a decoder and simple plastic grips), P.ONE regular, P.ONE Compact, and VB Practical (and IPSC competition model). Early models were offered in 7.65mm Parabellum (for maximum hipster points), 9mm Parabellum (for normal people), and 9x21mm (for the Italian civilian market). With the P.ONE, .40 S&W was also added to the offerings. None were bad guns, but none were commercial successful and only a few thousand of all types were made before production ceased in the 1990s.

If someone is a "bodyguard" or whatever job, related to guns (as in any other job), I also would assume that he would have his own "tools" for the job, that he is used to, and professional with it... Like construction workers, electricians... Me as a hunter, etc. I never liked when someone gave me some "company tool". As in wars, when the military gave me some "new" rifles or so, untested, and unknown to me, where I need time to get used to it, "to come to work together", and usually, there is no time for that...war just started...

Wrong time. It entered the market after the other famous metal wondernines (Beretta 92, CZ75 and SIG P220 were of the '70s), so it didn't acquire the same mithical status. It had not been selected by any famous government agency (also because Bernardelli didn't have the financial power of Beretta or SIG) and got everything right, with the model "S", right at the start of the plastic gun frenzy, when an all forged steel gun simply looked "old".

I have been using an 9x21 Bernardelli Practical VB accurized for years, bought second hand from an IPSC PRO. I can say that in the shooting range at the time it was the most accurate 9x21 among all the others. One thing: the stupid law that didn't allow to use 9 Para in Italy had an advantage. The 9x21 at that time could be loaded to Major Factor (with caution) Considering that it was second hand (from a PRO) and that I fired at least 5/6000 VERY HOT rounds I can definitively state that it was robust, reliable and long lasting. I miss her.

I used to own one (the P018 with no "s") in 9x21, bought in June 2020, used until Jan 2023, it was a good pistol overall, a lil on the heavy side and edgy but a realiable one. Sold it for the same price i bought it (about 200€). The only reason why i sold it was the part availability, in those 3 years i've never seen anyone else at the firing range with the same gun and didn't want to discover how fragile they really were. But for that much i think it served me very well. Mine also had a different spring guide, it had a closed ring and not a opened one, i've never learned how to disassemble it the right way it was such a pain every time.

My PO18 was an early model with a heel release magazine. It kept breaking the trigger return spring. As there was no spare parts supply I ended up cannabalising springs from toy cap guns. Worked fine. Fun times.

There were VB Practical versions of both the P018S and the P-ONE. I own a new and unfired P018S version VB Practical (9 Para) with all the factory options. Larger beavertail, adjustable target sights, flat trigger, 4 port compensator, extended mag release button, four rubber base mags, Bernardelli embroided locking soft case.......... Bernardelli mined the ore for their guns in the mountains around the Val Trompa region, made their own forging molds and forged/machined almost every single part on the gun. The Bernardelli factory was FULLY water powered, it was on the main river in Val Trompa. The factory remained TOTALLY water powered right to the last day. I find it amazing that Bernardelli almost made it into the 21 Century with a water powered production facility. I purchased my gun based on the interesting history of Bernardelli.

With my limited experience with semi auto pistols, I've found that the larger frame models don't fit my smaller hands properly, so this thinner frame appeals to me.

Same, it's a pain finding something that fits my hands probably. I usually go with 380s but I've used a couple slim 9s and generally I don't have a problem, the slim glock 48 is nice it just sucks it's single stack

I like the hard lines instead of the usual swoops a lot of guns have where there are no hard edges.

I remember seeing ads for these in gun rags during the 1980s and early 90s. Now I know why I never actually saw one.

At some point in the past, I remember taking a 15-minute tour of this guy. What a sexy pistol. At the time, we were being issued the Beretta M9's and I can remember being angry at the Air Force for forcing that piece of crap on us instead of, well, the SIG or the something as nice as the Bernardelli.

This is almost identical to the Steyr M9 (which you als probably have never heard of). It's a 9x19 Austrian Striker-fired, Browning lockup, double stack, polymer handgun that is basically an anti Glock. But nobody has heard of them!
