Thank you! I still occasionally carry the 97. My pocket slip broke so not as much as I had been. I’ve since switched to a case single blade trapper in 1095 that was a DLT exclusive and that’s been my go to/beater knife for the last year with the occasional SAK US Army issue utility knife for the EDC. When I get another slip the 97 will back to my primary carry.

The DAO is my favorite version of the 92 platform but they’re getting hard to find. I love the DAO trigger, they’re fantastic and if you really want to make it better a few Wilson combat parts make all the difference.

@@warspiteseria3093 no idea.

@@bryankerbow7871 while I prefer the beretta I have met government guys that operated in places we weren’t officially in that did use the Taurus and loved it. They’re quality especially for Taurus.

@@vincentsilva5663 thank you!

@@drewskee817 never had an issue with my surefire and I’ve put a few magazine through it with the light on.

@ is your surefire metal or polymer ?

@ polymer. I’ve done it with my TLR-1 as well. If you’re not mag dumping a lot I think it’d be fine but then again I don’t go around mag dumping into stuff to find out.

@@redbarronreviews2429 thanks for the responses and information.

It’s not uncommon in military use, at least in my personal experience for the M9 to have reliability issues. Almost everyone I’ve come across had been heavily used, worn out, and often time issued with the checkmate mags that were supposed to be taken out of service. These factors would make any gun choke. The only time I’ve seen them perform well was when I was in the Marines and that’s because they actually maintained the pistols with a real service schedule. In the guard when we had them they were all worn out and had spotty reliability.

@@retrowoohoo468 proper training is cheaper.

@@bertoa.2392 it is. It’s their concealment grip safety. I will warn you that it took me about 2 hours to for it. It was rough and I had to shave off some of the hammer to make it work.

@@corycarlson8712 there are a lot of little things that get overlooked on this gun. I love it now and this is coming from someone who dreaded to qualify with it in the military. The taught doctrine didn’t do Justice for the M9. Now that we have the M17 I feel like we got cheated out of a better handgun.

@@redbarronreviews2429 I love the way I shoot a Beretta but I carry Glocks. Shot a lot of Taurus pt92s with that 1911 safety but only a few hundred rounds on actual Berettas. They are awesome. I agree 100% about the m17. It's so bad. I love 226s as much as any gun, but the 320 design and QC is a literal joke. 2000s Taurus bad. Thanks again for the info. Give me a m9a4 or Glock 19 over a m17 all day every day.

@@corycarlson8712 the M17 isn’t bad from the perspective of training new officers to use a handgun. It’s definitely easier than teaching them a DA/SA which has seen 1st time qualifications go up. But with experienced shooters the M9 is far superior. I wouldn’t say the M17 is trash, but it’s for sure not my favorite. I really think a M9A4 centurion is where it’s at. At this point I prefer beretta over anything other than a high quality 1911. I sound like a fudd but a 1911 built to run instead of shoot groups is pretty hard to beat. I dig the classic sigs. I like glocks if that’s all you’re gonna shoot. It’s pretty difficult to shoot them and then be successful on another platform without a lot of practice due to grip angle.

I replaced all the springs in this firearm, completely disassembled, soaked in solvent, inspected and cleaned. It’s in good mechanical condition.

Glad I could help! I’ve got another tip video on the M9 coming soon.

There wasn't a reliability issue with the 92FS. The reason most military M9s had problems was because of units failing to follow the maintenance schedules associated with the guns. You cant shoot guns with high round counts neglect maintenance then act surprised when the guns fail.

@@willdrake1052 the make the compact but it’s still kinda big.

Good Movie!

@@WilDayne I need to do a video on this as well. It does happen but easy to train around.

@@redbarronreviews2429 definitely can train around it. Unless you're doing one hand, manipulations, racking it off your belt, etc. kind of just unneeded risk.

@@maxatrillionfatstacks there are decocker only models or you can modify what you have. Being made for military it has to be idiot safe.

@@redbarronreviews2429 I did initially carry my Bersa thunder with the safety cause I wasn't sure how impact safe the hammer was and doing chainsawing with it OWB it seemed possible that a big log could drop and hit the hammer causing it to discharge and the safety actually blocks the hammer from hitting the firing pin. But after trying to train a smooth draw with taking the safety off and only being able to get it to disengage about half the time and having to break my grip, cause the Bersa safety is similar to the Beretta but smaller and way more awkward, I realized I'd rather take my chances of an AD into my leg from a log falling on the hammer than go to pull it when I need it and not be able to disengage the safety. I'm definitely confident enough in my gun handling not to rely on a safety, I'm very comfortable carrying a revolver with a transfer bar, it's just the exposed hammer with no additional mechanical safety made me a little nervous but I'm sure they've got some other kind of internal drop safety mechanism in the Bersa

Sometimes you wanna throw a loaded gun into a bag or or door pocket someplace weird where the risk of shit shifting around or something weird happening resulting in an ND is a possibility. Me personally, I don't feel safe pocket carrying guns for extended periods if they don't have a safety and DA trigger. DA alone, a weird snag with some force and bang. Safety alone, all it takes is something bumping the safety and then later a light snag and bang. Both combined, I feel like the chance of everything lining up to go wrong is so low it's basically zero. If you have a proper holster you don't have to ever worry about that, and you should always use a proper holster when available, but sometimes the situation calls for a gun shoved in a bag or pocket. Or glovebox.
