Stan,
For your information in 1988 Beretta were a major shareholder in Perazzi that saved them from going broke , plus they have had a number of hiccoughs since 1988 'skin of the teeth ' comes to mind.
Anglo Spanish Imports (ASI) UK was founded by two wealthy farming brothers who wanted a Holland & Holland Royal , but didn't like the price or the delivery / build time , so they took one to Spain to AyA and their new gun was delivered 5 weeks later. Since then the AyA No1 & No2 have been stalwarts of British shooting community.EJ Churchill, William Evans , William Powell old name famous English gunmakers are now having guns made in Spain.
