    My 92FS is 30 years old. I am the original owner. I use it every day as an Armed Service Technician with an armored car company. Others have tried and even bust my chops about it. I love it and will not change it. Thanks

    You can get a better purchase on the slide by racking it properly instead of using your two fingers at the rear of the slide. The reason your hands are getting torn up by the stipling is because your grip is too loose and the gun moves in your hand each time you shot. That causes you to change your grip creating shot inconsistencies.

    Maybe I'm also a little biased myself, I enjoyed firing the 1911 while in the Army and was issued a 92FS when I started my Security job when I got out. I enjoy taking my 92 to the range for both "fun" and to do my yearly quals. The M9A4 looks nice and I can see how some may like the new additions, but for me, I'll stick with the 92FS.

    I bought my 1st 92FS (Italian made) back in 1984ish? Anyway, From the factory it fit my hand perfectly! I do have larger hands so this ergonomics was quite revealing to me. Since then I still own that 1st 92 but have added another 2 models of the 90 series. 1 in 9mm and the other in .40S/W which is my nightstand "go to" tool. The other has the bottom rail which is fitted with a green laser/optic which is just about prefect for me! I guess I just like the all metal design of this series. I also have/own a XDM in 5.5" barrel configuration. It too is a lovely handgun in .40S/W.

  • @bwillems1000
    @bwillems1000 3 дні тому

    I think the reason they didn't include an optics mount was because of the multitude of different footprints available. I believe that the optics-capable 92s come with a coupon that can be redeemed on Beretta's website for a free optics mount with the footprint of your choosing, but I can't confirm because I long since threw away all my paperwork for mine. By the way mine was the 92X Centurion, which cost about $750.

    I watched a short some guy posted of unpacking the M9A4 and I instantly had to have it. The only thing I didn't like about it was I got what some ppl call a California compliant version that only came with 10 round mags. So I went out got the OEM 17 round mags and sold the other ones on Ebay. I was super stoked that it did come with 3 magazines when so many other brands only come with 2. I liked the aggressive grips I took it to the range and put 300 rounds thru it and they seemed to give me better control on the recoil. I got mine from a little Amish gun store here in Cub Run, KY brand new for $950. He didn't have it in the store so he ordered it for me. With the tax if my memory serves me right it still came in at under a grand. The whole gun just oozes sexy and the accuracy is reminiscent of my Army days as an MP. Definitely worth what I paid! 😊

  • @willbar1961
    @willbar1961 15 днів тому

    Having many different 92 models it really comes down to what you will use it for and how much you are willing to spend. The 92 compact is about the size of a Glock 19. The Centurion is like a 19x and the full size is like a G17, give or take a little. You can find the 92X Centurion "G" model, if you like a decocker only safety, that is cut for red dot base plates and comes with the extra grips to make it like the 92fs grip size/shape. It is everything the m9a4 is except the threaded barrel and possibly night sights at a lower cost.

I went back the next day to buy it and of course it was sold so I bought the Compact. I love it and it's my main CCW now.

    I had a 92fs for about 7-8 years and it was a fine pistol, but I wanted to install an optical sight and have the ability to install a flashlight, so about a year ago I sold the 92fs and bought an M9A4. The trigger needed some work, so I had a gunsmith tune it up a bit, and I find it to be a very reliable and accurate pistol. I like the safety/decocker on the M9 much better than the fs. I put a red dot on the M9, which is fine, but I wish it could-witnessed with the iron sights, so I may change out the iron sights. Jury is still out on that one…

    I prefer the grip shape and angle of the 92FS. It's more comfortable and natural to my hand and wrist. It's more accurate for me, right out of the box. The A4 appears to have a straigher 1911 angle but without the palm swell. That would take getting used to.

    I've been carrying the Vertec frame for 24 years. I'm going to choose it every time over a conventional 92/96 frame. I come from a 1911 background so the Vertec is like holding another woman with the same shape. I have both frames across 6 different Berettas so it's the Vertec for me and not necessarily this M9a3 or a4 form. I have that too. Overall you can't go wrong with any Beretta

    Maybe it’s just my imagination, but it appears that he is not gripping with his off hand very well. Looks like the weapon is rocking out of his left hand, causing him to adjust or re-establish his grip on each trigger press. Just my observation, maybe a little more pressure from the left hand will help.
