One of the few guns I have ever sold.
2nd pistol purchase after I graduated, bought is because it had been adopted by the military.
It never jammed but I couldn’t shoot the dang thing, trigger is long and stiff and the grip is blocky and they are heavy. After shooting a few other pistols I began to somewhat hate it every time I took it out and ended up trading it for a Glock when FB was still letting you trade and sell guns.
I don’t regret getting rid of it.

Fine gun, but incredibly dated in a lot of ways

Great gun. I love the ergonomics, especially the vertec models. Mine are utterly reliable. Mags are plentiful and cheap. I prefer pistols with manual safeties, so they check the box (92G obviously does not). Great suppressor platform.

Put a Beretta Xtremevtrigger kit with a Langdon trigger bar and it’s the best DA trigger pull you will ever shoot. I have 3 92’s. Love all of them. My next will be a Langdon LTT 92 compact with NP3 internals.

I bought one years ago in the Brigadier model, heavy as crap, great grip, really smooth shooter, stupid reliable.

Carry it? Never, it rides in the truck console, or my safe, but a great shooter.

I had an M9 for a while. I liked it a lot. Wish I still had it. Very easy to shoot well and very accurate. The DA trigger pull was pretty terrible compared to a Sig P series but not unbearable.

I remember when I had it, I really wished it had the decocker instead of the safety, which from what I understand is a simple modification to make if that's what you want.

It was my very first handgun purchase 20 years ago.

Big, Heavy, but extremely durable and very accurate. Its battle tested and is just a sexy gun.

Great for home security and plinking at the range.

It is long and stiff in double action. In single action there is absolutely NO take up and has a defined wall.

Have one that is at least 20-25 years ago. The grip is a bit blocky, but I love it and shoot it well.

What would you recommend in the 92 series that has a thinner grip and isn't $4000 like all of yours

My 92X RDO


92 GTS and add Beretta extreme Trigger kit and a Langdon Trigger bar.

WC vertq G10 grips

Beretta GTS 92 verteq frame with Wilson grips. $64

Beretta 92 Extreme S trigger. $200

LINK


Langdon Trigger Bar $80

LINK

So you can get a pretty bad arse Beretta for about $1200. The trigger upgrades are absolutely worth it in my opinion.

Sweet gun. I really liked the recoil impulse; it shot pretty flat.

First 9mm I ever owned. Had it for 25 years and it’s smooth. That reminds me I need to shoot it

One of the sweetest shooting pistols ever made. Just feels great in the hand, has a nice weight to it, and runs like butter.

I'll be looking to upgrade from my standard 92fs. I love it.

That's a fine looking pistol minus the Q beam on it

Um, when did Beretta star making revolvers?

quote:

Manurhin MR73 Sport 4"
Starting from $4,179.00
The Manurhin MR73 series of revolvers was developed specifically for the requirements of the French Gendarmerie and special service units of the French Police and Military. Available now through Beretta Premium Galleries and Dealers.

My first pistol and still have it.

It is actually really fun to shoot, accurate, and I keep it in my bedside table safe for home protection. It will always go bang, I've got over 5k rounds through mine with 0 malfunctions.
