Yes, Beretta is the oldest corporation in the world. In operation and owned by the same family since 1526.
I think Ginsu is older than Beretta.

That's awesome(not that he died), I remember that commercial well
"The partners decided to run with it, hiring a local Japanese exchange student to appear as a chef. The first and most famous Ginsu ad began with a hand karate-chopping a two-by-four board. "In Japan," began Schiff's copy, "the hand can be used like a knife. But this method doesn't work with a tomato" (cut to a hand squashing a tomato)."
there are european breweries that are considerably older
The actual structures and equipment, maybe, but none of them have been owned and operated as a single company for as long as Beretta.
Any canadian in here remember the Leons commercial with santa in the lazy boy??? wait now I cant remember if the store name was Leons or not

News to me as well
Last time I looked it up, it was definitely Beretta - now it may STILL be the oldest in the same family with continuous operation however.

ah yeah, maybe there are qualifiers about it or something....
Would Beretta know how many guns they have sold since day 1? That would be pretty cool, cause its not like guns "go bad" for the most part.
