VM59 is a character from the SLG game Girls' Frontline developed by MicaTeam and distributed by Sunborn Network Technology Co., Ltd. and its derivatives. She is based on the Beretta BM 59 selective-fire rifle.
Contents
Historical basis
The Beretta BM 59 is an Italian selective-fire rifle based on the American M1 Garand.
As NATO formed following WWII, large batches of M1 Garand rifles entered Europe through military assistance from the US, with many arms firms growing rife via manufacturing Garand rifles under license, one of which was Beretta. The Italian Army decided to accept the M1 Garand as its standard-issue rifle, while Beretta acquired the license for constructing the weapon after the first batch of rifles had been delivered. The M1 Garand proved to be a reliable weapon in WWII. However, it was considered obsolete as NATO made preparations for accepting automatic rifles firing 7.62×51mm NATO cartridges, especially as the FN FAL and the G3 started appearing among NATO troops. The Italian Army, though having spent no more than 10 years with the Garand, decided to keep in pace with the change, replacing the M1 Garand with a weapon that would fire the very same 7.62×51mm NATO rounds.
To fulfill the needs of the Italian Army while at the same time not rendering the relatively-new Garands with less than 10 years in service entirely useless, and considering the relatively high costs for developing a brand-new weapon and lengthy training for the military should said weapon be introduced, designers at Beretta, led by Domenico Salza who introduced the Beretta M12 and improved the MAB38/49, designed the BM 59 after two years of development.
The BM 59 differs from the M1 Garand in the following details:
- A new barrel is fitted to better suit the shorter 7.62×51mm NATO cartridge.
- A new detachable magazine holding 20 rounds is fitted (there are also 14- and 25-round ones available) to the lower part of the receiver. Feeding is also possible via a clip mounted to the top of the receiver.
- The bolt is held open after the last round is fired.
- A selector lever is mounted to the left side of the receiver for switching between semi- and auto-firing.
- A Beretta-developed three-purpose muzzle device is fitted.
Beretta developed a three-purpose muzzle device (functioning as a recoil dampener, anti-muzzle-climb device and flash hider at the same time) to mitigate the strong recoil and high bullet spread in automatic fire. Firing trials conducted by NATO in the Netherlands, Norway and Denmark did indicate a lowered bullet spread in automatic fire. However, shooters were still advised to aim to the lower-right of the target in short bursts of 2 to 3 rounds to compensate for the weapon's tendency to fire to the upper-left due to the unguaranteed accuracy in long bursts, while firing in full-auto beyond 30-50 meters was impractical due to the large amount of recoil and muzzle climb (a problem shared by weapons such as the G3, FAL, M14 and the SIG 510). However, accuracy could be improved with proper training and the use of bipods.
The BM 59 was designated in 1959 (hence the 59), and was officially issued to the Italian Armed Forces in 1962, and saw service in militaries of Nigeria, Indonesia and Morocco. The semi-automatic variant of the BM 59 was also exported to the US and were sold to private collectors. The very first BM 59's were made from M1 Garand parts, which included the re-bored barrel.
The Italian military replaced the BM 59 with the more advanced AR70/90 in 1990, though some BM 59's are still in service within the Italian Army and the Navy. The Carabinieri auctioned over 15,000 BM 59's in June, 2015, which were then modified to semi-automatic-only for purchase by collectors or enthusiasts in the civilian market.
Though externally similar to the M14 rifle, the BM 59 bears no connection to the weapon except that the two are based on the M1 Garand. The magazine of the BM 59, however, is compatible with the M14.
The BM 59 comes in a number of variants:
- The BM 59 Mark E uses the barrel and piston well of the M1 Garand, which made it cheaper as those of all other variants have been redesigned.
- The BM 59D comes with a pistol grip behind the trigger guard and a bipod to the front.
- The BM 59R has a rate-of-fire-limiting mechanism installed to the trigger group.
- The BM 59CB has its full-auto capability replaced by a three-round-burst ability.
- The BM 59GL has a grenade launcher installed at the muzzle. The D, R, and GL variants do not have the three-purpose muzzle device.
- The BM 59 Mk I (also known as the BM59 ITAL) has a grenade launcher and an associated sight installed alongside the three-purpose muzzle device and bipod, and is compatible with a 292mm-long bayonet.
- The BM 59 Mk II is basically identical to the Mk I, but with a pistol grip integrated into the wooden stock to better facilitate firing in full-auto. The Mk II also comes with a bipod. The Mk II has never been used in the Italian military, but served instead in Nigerian forces, which is why the Mk II is also called the Nigerian model.
- The BM 59 Mk III differs from the previous two Marks with its metal stock that folds to the right for use by mountain troops. The BM 59 ITAL-TA (TA for Truppe Alpine) derived from the Mk III was the actual weapon issued to mountain troops. Another subvariant, the BM 59 ITAL-Para was issued to paratroopers, which differed from the ITAL-TA by a shorter barrel and flash hider. Its length with the stock folded stands at only 725 mm, comparatively short in its family.
- The BM 59 Mk IV (called the BM 59 ITAL-Pesante in Italian) weighs 5.475 kg with a 530mm heavy barrel and plastic stock, but comes without the foregrip and a different bipod. This weapon served as a squad automatic weapon mainly sold to Nigeria, and was manufactured there in local armories using imported Italian parts.

Stats
Notes:
- The buff effect of handguns will be improved when they undergo establishment augmentations.
- Data in the Stats section correspond to the threshold at level 1 / at level 100 / after MOD 1 digi-mind update / after MOD 2 digi-mind update / after MOD 3 digi-mind update (if available).
- Data in parentheses ("()") is the maximum possible value of the stat.
Trivia
- Due to her mediocre stats and widespread availability, VM59 unfortunately almost always meets the fate of being used as powerup fodder moments after production is complete.
Quotes
- English quotes in italic are rough translations from the Japanese/Chinese part due to a lack of reliable data present in the files.
