I carried the Beretta M9 while I was in the Army. I never had a single issue with mine. Now I was one of those clean freaks so I’m sure that played a role in it never malfunctioning. The ones we were issued in my unit were not new by any stretch of the imagination. Lol. However I really enjoyed carrying it and shooting it on range days. My only negative memory with my M9 was how hot it got during the summer in Iraq. lol. I know all guns got hot over there but dang man. I had to draw it during a raid looking for weapons cache’s and it did a number on my hand. 😂😂I’ve always wanted to purchase one for my own collection but haven’t done so yet. Soon though, very soon. I actually fell in love with it when I saw Lethal Weapon for the very first time. Hands down to this day my favorite movie series. Mel Gibson and Danny Glover were outstanding in all 4 movies. I really wish they would do a 5th. Awesome video brother, thank you for sharing. By the way, you have an amazing wife. She is no doubt a keeper man!! Lol
Look up your history 45 was designed cause former caliber couldn't handle the job wtfu . 9 might not handle the job like so many times in combat like 30 cal carbine
It’s 20 years that i use the 92FS for work, italian police. 20 years of all weather open carry, never had a single problem! Just a little recommendation: always, always safe the 92 before to do any manouver. Even the disassembly! It’s always a good idea to have the hammer on rest position and the firing pin misaligned! It’s very a very reliable and safe gun!
I am not talking of suicides, I am talking abt Americans who shoot there own countrymen just coz they are bored or frustrated or depressed and can get hold of a gun very easily. Schools colleges universities shopping malls..... Everywhere. Sometimes we Wonder whether there are any police in USA.... That ppl have to get hold of leathal weapons to protect themselves from god knows what.
I had my heart set on a Beretta 92 back in 1987 after seeing the movie Lethal Weapon. In the hands of Mel Gibson it just looked so cool and state of the art. In 1989 I had saved up the cash and went to my local range to buy my dream pistol. The salesman immediately started pushing the Glock 17 Gen 2 instead. But the 92 was just so beautiful on the top of the gun case. The Glock looked so poorly made at first glance. Like a cheap toy. In truth I had not ever shot a semiautomatic pistol before. I knew close to nothing about either of these guns. The salesman took me back to the range and I fired the house 92. It was everything I thought it would be... Heavy, cold, loud, and had the feel of a finely engineered machine. The the Glock to my surprise was lighter, the same temp as my skin, a better grip angle (for me), no external safety, much easier to break down, higher capacity, and it had the feel of a finely engineered "military/LE" machine. I loved the Glock at first shot. I loved the idea that I could could just aim and pull the trigger, no forgetting to take it out of safe that could cost me my life. So in September of 1989 I bought my G17G2. I have put thousands of rounds trough it over the last 31 years, and this awesome pistol has been carried by me as EDC almost every single day of those 31 years. I still want a Beretta 92 or M9 surplus, or Taurus... It does not matter. It's just that design. It is THE beautiful Super Model of the firearms world.
I can’t help it, i am one of those purists. I’m planning on swapping out plastic for metal once i get one. Plastic controls on a metal framed pistol just feels weird to me
Yes, Americans are the most blessed people in the world. I hope we can continue to share in the blessings of liberty that are For Fathers fought to give us.
Beretta and Sig were the only two to pass all the military tests in 1985, Beretta only won the contract due to a cheaper price on parts. Almost certainly a similar decision that now favors Sig, follow the money.
@@jonlee5642 navy is usually last to recieve anything. My dad was on the ship from 1986 to 1990 and they still had M1911s and M14 rifles. The 1911s were worn out and junk.
The most beautifulest firearm in the world to own is a 9 mm Beretta hands down and two big thumps way way up brother gun owner and owners well peace everyone😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.
newdefsys I dont think that is right. They have a contract with Sig for 10 years so then waiting years to switch will be a waste of money but knowing the army very well. I can see them taking their time.
I had one of these and foolishly sold it to a deputy in Joplin, MO when I was working down there. I have a love/hate relationship with this pistol. Carried it for years in the service, and took it to Far East Division Matches in Okinawa in '91 or '92. Very accurate and smooth. Ours were not the newest in the Corps by any means, but they still shot. I just thought they were too big. Anyway, good memories!
Got a 92fs and won't be going back to Glocks.......the beretta is just SO much easier to shoot, and accurate! It's like a Ferrari.... I also liked the 1911 waaayyy more than I thought too!!!
My wife got me a 1911 .45 a1 springfield armory and a glock 23 .40 for my birthday last year best gift I carry everyday all day.. All over Chicago and state.. Just got myself a nice shoulder holdster by aliengear and gold plated grips and screws for the 1911..
My M9 came in a plain brown cardboard box with a camouflaged colored sleeve on the outside. Inside the pistol was wrapped in brown tissue-like paper and had the manual, warranty booklet, cable lock (in its own box) and Beretta cleaning kit. I bought it new in 2015. Mine only came with two mags.
Indeed! I bought one a while back but as embarrassing as it is to admit, it got damaged due to operator error so I might get the thrill of buying a new one again soon....
I love the 1911 I think it's the most aesthetically pleasing gun there is. But, like he said it grows on you. It's the only other handgun that I like besides the 1911. I plan on getting one in the future to add to my collection
The M17 gave me nothing but problems. I was extremely disappointed with it. I mean my service pistol in the Army was old as shit and performed way better than my BRAND NEW M17 did. That gun sincerely made me uncomfortable and I would never trust it with my families lives. Period. I believe the Army should have went with the M9A3 which is absolutely badass or even the Glock 19X. I like both but I like the M9A3 more. My Army issued M9 was also more accurate than the M17 I had. I ended up sending that handgun back to SIG 3 times. The 3rd time it came back still having issues I got rid of it. I plan on buying one of the M9A3’s before the end of the year. Super nice gun. If you haven’t already I highly recommend checking it out. I recommend it to anyone looking for an accurate, very good looking and super reliable handgun. It is pretty darn pricy though. Lol. Worth every penny in my opinion.
I loved the M9 when I was on active duty. The times it was issued to me, never had an issue. Lots of people dislike it because of the weight....however it makes 9mm feel like a cap gun lol.
Just picked up my Commercial a few weeks ago and just recently purchased the M9 22lr for the Mrs! unfortunately the 22lr is failing to eject. Beretta told me to send it in for service so it should be good once they work on it.
I carried a M9 in the war (afghanistan) i trusted it. Want to get a M9 commericial for nostalgia and to shoot of course. The older mags were the weak link. Good new mags and it will run forever.
Air force still carries this as a sidearm. My brother is air force security forces deployed as of right now and he has always had the M9. Cocked and loaded in his leg holster at all times
first the Italian guns come with a metal guide rod- weak point is plastic, second the triggers are better on the Italian and they are more accurate, lock block is from a walther p38,
MY wife occasionally "treats" me too with guns on Christmas and birthday. Please note, though, that guide rods are just a cost-cutting measure. It has nothing to do with oil. Order yourself a stainless steel guide rod. I did that with all 3 of my Beretta 92s / M9s as well as the Model 84 (.380). I'm not happy that Beretta uses plastic but what can you do (other than buy a Sig). Beretta 92 / M9 is a great gun - not the first one that I'll grab when the Apoc comes but a great gun - just keep it clean and you shouldn't have any issues.
when my unit was transitioned from FA to MP we were handed a bunch of M9's, told to go out to the range and Qual. (in one day) I had never played with pistols, But I Qual'd high expert with the damn thing. (most of the guys barely Q'd)
I love the look of this gun. When i got the chance to hold one, it felt amazing. Quite a bit of heft, but it felt pretty badass holding a full metal gun. I really want to get one, but there are like 50 variants of them. I'll have to do research, but maybe i'll get one sometime this month.
the marine corps - the real fighting force - will be using the m9 for a long time. to reassemble, put the slide on the rails and rack the slide. the takedown lever snaps back up. remoil is not a lube, it is a cleaner. use something thicker for lube.
rofl "the real fighting force" ok bullet sponge, ill use mortars and air support as army infantry take strategic positions and with minimal loss of life.
grr ummmpee Semper Fi. The marines, although awesome and I appreciate your loyalty , are not the only fighting force. Also you may not have heard but Colt has been contracted to make a 1911 for use in the Corps. The marines will be going back to the great as test pistol ever made.
Before you spout off about someone or something being retarded, how about you learn the proper use of their. Seems to me that you have some pent up jealousy and can't bring yourself to admit the Marine Corps is the most lethal branch of the U.S. military. haha
I would say the 45 is more history but I had both in my time in the navy liked both nice video but both for different reasons the 9 won cause 15 rounds but a good weapon but I felt safer with the 45
Takes some control that I don't have to not open that baby up for 2 weeks. I wouldn't be able to resist, no matter how busy, I'd find the time haha. Beautiful gun, my favorite handgun by far.
Beautiful...here in India......for gun enthusiasts like me.......its only a dream to own such gorgeous handguns.....due to very strict gun laws.....then again....thank you for this video...felt like I was doing the unboxing......keep up the good work....👍👍👍👍
Bought mine way back in 2011 and it came in a box showing all the military branches and 25 years of service. Only had this and my Colt 1991 45. Now I have over 30 lol.
My whole military career was with the M9. I can field strip one in my sleep. I can shoot it off handed and still get a 6" group @ 1000 yards...well, maybe at 10 yards. You know what I mean. And the only time I can ever remember a malfunction of the thousand's of rounds I put through them was when we were issued this cheap ass steel rounds instead of brass. Steel cases will not feed through an M9 without some modifications. At least from my experience. Maybe others have had luck with them. Anyways, it's my EDC and I love it.
I was not aware of the problems with steel case ammo. I have a Ruger AR556 which will jam on steel case 223 after only 2 to 5 rounds and I mean jam, like pour oil down the barrel let it soak in and then take a good army metal cleaning rod and pound that case out of there.
It may have been just that brand of steel ammo and not steel ammo in general. And I don't think the issue was feeding, it was extraction. The spent round would not clear the chamber reliably. But that was just a fluke thing, the armory never issued out the steel cases after we complained to them.
nice pistol I just purchased one and my LGS told me the blue cup is a pin driving cup for dissasembly, they must be expecting most to buy the steel upgrade kits offered .I did.
I bought my parts separately because I didnt want the bulky double safety decocker . I used the wilson combat low profile single side decocker , real nice . another advantage of buying the trigger separate is they give you a D-spring with it witch takes a lb or two off the DA pull. I had to search hi and low to find a standard size mag release button witch baretta dont have in steel but told me where to find but no one had it, finally found it last night at gun parts corp. they have new and used . you will notice a small difference with a steel guide rod alone.and of course the steel trigger feels reel nice on the finger
I mean, damn dude. There are actually people out there that are interested in seeing everything that comes in a firearm box. Granted, it could’ve been sped up a tad to get to the gun itself. Regardless, I appreciate you showing everything. That could help someone, in one of those instances where they bought the same gun but are missing items in the box. Absolutely no need to be rude about it. A simple please speed up your videos so you get to the gun itself faster would have been better. Respect goes a long way.
Only a douchebag who choked way too high could get slide bite on a beretta 92... I have huge hands and served with a guy with bigger hands and neither have come close.
What sucks in since you live in Massachusetts you are limited to ten round mags unless you can find pre ban mags for a premium price tag. And the 10 lb. Trigger pull sucks too. Love the gun, hate the laws here. I'm also in Massachusetts and own a 92 in stainless. Just wish I could enjoy the gun how it's meant to be carried with a full mag and factory trigger pull, not a Massachusetts gun that has these restrictions.
I have visited Massachusetts and I loved the history and the beauty and Boston, but if I lived in New England, the last state I would live in is Massachusetts. I would live in New Hampshire, hopefully all the Boston Liberals don't ruin that state.
Rolling through the comments G.G. and I didn't see anyone mention...the changing of hands pertains to if you intend to sell to another,the card must go with the gun. beautiful gun by the way. good luck with it and be careful out there.
Beautiful pistol, good luck with it! I have the Beretta M9 22 LR and really like it, looks, feels and operates just like the 92. The 9MM version is on my wish list. I am a revolver guy but have always admired the design and looks of these things, truly a classic pistol. BTW I had heard that they went with the plastic guide rod to shave off an ounce on the weight to make it more competitive. 👍
Thank You, Its a real piece of U.S. Military History. Its a solid (and heavy) pistol compared to the Walther PPQ or Glock. They put a few plastic pieces in the pistol to cut down on the weight.
Agreed…I posted a video on my channel this week saluting my Beretta M9 22 set to military parade music. That’s how I came across your video, auto played after I was watching my video. Nice channel you have, I subbed.
That’s what is great about TH-cam. A lot of content out there, people sharing, it’s like a treasure hunt, always great to find a new channel you like. Keep on Trucking!

But at the end of the day the 45 was the better gun Wtfu I had both in usn 45 puts u down
Look up your history 45 was designed cause former caliber couldn't handle the job wtfu . 9 might not handle the job like so many times in combat like 30 cal carbine
Ya I know these guns

Absolutely, that long trigger pull helps. You practically have to purposely pull that trigger to get it to fire.
Yeah we also use in in the philippines national police very realiable all kinds of 9mm ammo can fit in the barrel without jamming
Any woman who buys her husband a gun for Christmas is automatically the best wife in the world!
Absolutely!
Also explains why Americans die in hundreds in their own hands instead of Isis or al qaida
So, you don't have people commit Suicide in your country?
I am not talking of suicides, I am talking abt Americans who shoot there own countrymen just coz they are bored or frustrated or depressed and can get hold of a gun very easily.

You know I didn't give that any thought. It is funny when you think about it.
"Nothing says merry christmas like a new gun"! Definitely what christmas spirit is all about!
You understand!
M9's are still being produced and shipped to the military. The contract called for a total of 600,000 units, 20,000 are still to be delivered.
steve graham navy still uses m9
Thank You for the info.
Not to the Army any more. They are getting rid of the M9s switching to the Sig P320s(M17). Pretty much all of the 101st have swtiched ready.
@@jonlee5642 navy is usually last to recieve anything. My dad was on the ship from 1986 to 1990 and they still had M1911s and M14 rifles. The 1911s were worn out and junk.
Italian quality Beretta Top 🇮🇹🙌🏻
Nothing says merry Christmas like a gun a year later lol
Nothing says merry Christmas like a new gun!
I love the M9, its my 2nd favorite handgun,the Sig P226 is #1, but I have both and they will never be sold
I love my 92FS my favorite wonder nine it's 5 years old now and i can trust it with my life any day
I don’t celebrate chrismas but my wife gave me a pistol like this on our anniversary and in return, I gave her A BANG! 🚬🤖
The most beautifulest firearm in the world to own is a 9 mm Beretta hands down and two big thumps way way up brother gun owner and owners well peace everyone😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.
It really is beautiful!
Correction: The trigger and de-cocker are 100% metal, NOT Plastic, with a thin polymer coating for a comfortable touch.
Thank You for the correction!
Great Guns You're welcome brother! Great vid review! Thanks!
The Army has only delivered the new M17 to 2 divisions, (out of 50+ divisions, total) the M9 will remain in front line service for several more years.
It really is a good pistol over all, and I really enjoy shooting it.
newdefsys I dont think that is right. They have a contract with Sig for 10 years so then waiting years to switch will be a waste of money but knowing the army very well. I can see them taking their time.
newdefsys that's the Army for ya
Derrick Cruz remember it’s the Army. The amount of remedial training on the new m17 will eat up most of the 10 years as different divisions are issued
I had one of these and foolishly sold it to a deputy in Joplin, MO when I was working down there. I have a love/hate relationship with this pistol.

Wow. That's sweet. A 1911 fan myself but a nice one none the less
Thanks
The way you clean it .. says you love this gun
3 clips?? Fuckin sweeeett!!!
RIP NYC gun laws are so strict
I can’t even own an airsoft gun
I hate those delegates and mayor of NY and NYC
New York has shitty gun laws.
And Governor too
Vote them out!
My wife got me a 1911 .45 a1 springfield armory and a glock 23 .40 for my birthday last year best gift I carry everyday all day.. All over Chicago and state.. Just got myself a nice shoulder holdster by aliengear and gold plated grips and screws for the 1911..
I'm from Chicago too.
Sucks what we have to deal with all these dumb ass bills passing.. Magazine ban. Gun registration. Ect
Amen!
My M9 came in a plain brown cardboard box with a camouflaged colored sleeve on the outside. Inside the pistol was wrapped in brown tissue-like paper and had the manual, warranty booklet, cable lock (in its own box) and Beretta cleaning kit. I bought it new in 2015. Mine only came with two mags.
I am jealous for the family members that have such great taste! Cheers!
Indeed! I bought one a while back but as embarrassing as it is to admit, it got damaged due to operator error so I might get the thrill of buying a new one again soon....
The Army still issues the M9. I carried one up until a month ago. Its been a slow transition to the m17.
I am glad you enjoyed the video. I have heard the transition to the M17 will take a wile.
I love the 1911 I think it's the most aesthetically pleasing gun there is. But, like he said it grows on you. It's the only other handgun that I like besides the 1911. I plan on getting one in the future to add to my collection
I had 3 of these about ten years ago great gun not one issue shoots nice all around great
You know it really is a great pistol.
Make sure that paper from the state of Massachusetts is used in the bathroom.
i used mine as a target!
The M9 is a better gun over the M17 no debate.
I'll have to shoot the M17 to give you my opinion on that. I do like the Berretta a lot.
Having owned both I agree. The 92FS is the one I have now.
The M17 gave me nothing but problems. I was extremely disappointed with it. I mean my service pistol in the Army was old as shit and performed way better than my BRAND NEW M17 did.

Worth every penny in my opinion.
Sig Sauer ?
I own both and you are 110% correct
I have one in the stainless steel finish is it drop dead beautiful but the all black looks just as good god damn
You know, I really like it too! Its a classic like a 69 Camaro.
i'm 35 and she is my first gun... I know i'm really going to love her. I named her PERLA.
You Know I really like this gun too, and its its an easy gun to shoot well.
Nothing says "for law enforcement sale only" like a California certified lock included in the box...
Amen!
One of the best non polymer pistols on the market. I had a 92fs inox from Italy. It ate every 9mm load i fed it. Never had has misfire or malfunction.
That has been my experience so far too.
Lethal weapon sold me on this gun as a kid and still need one lol... priorities change as you get older 🤪
i got aftershave for christmas
You know "nothing says Merry Christmas like aftershave"!

@@GreatGunsGreatPeople Didn’t need to. It was the ammo that was the problem. Better ammo now it runs like a champ! 👍

Thanks for carrying the burden of battle! Most everyone I have heard from who carried the M9 in combat reported mostly good things about them.
Air force still carries this as a sidearm. My brother is air force security forces deployed as of right now and he has always had the M9. Cocked and loaded in his leg holster at all times
Max Payne used a baretta, pretty cool
Yes, you are correct, sir!
M9 is still used in Navy

So far, so good. I agree the metal guide rod is more expensive.
I love my new Beretta too. I have the model 96a1. That's the .40 S&W. PLUS I bought a ton of spare Mags. Such a dream to shoot!
I've always loved the look of the Beretta. The top of it always catches my attention.
Its a Great Gun!

The T1000 uses the Beretta M9 in T2
the marine corps - the real fighting force - will be using the m9 for a long time. to reassemble, put the slide on the rails and rack the slide. the takedown lever snaps back up. remoil is not a lube, it is a cleaner. use something thicker for lube.
the real fighting force? why aren't the other branches considered a real fighting force?
Oooohhh raaaaa

For the amount I paid for my Beretta, I was disappointed with how cheap the case was.
I bought my Beretta 92 SB compact in 1986 and still have it
It came in a flimsy plain brown cardboard box
Times have changed
Martin Hurworth but martin the case serves a ppurpose dont it. Better to have a dented case than a dented gun. Aint that true
Roger Rarebit could you give me an estimate on how much the factory would spend on the above mentioned cardboard box. Maybe 1.5 dollars?
I would say the 45 is more history but I had both in my time in the navy liked both nice video but both for different reasons the 9 won cause 15 rounds but a good weapon but I felt safer with the 45
Thank You.
@@GreatGunsGreatPeople I only need 1 with a 45 that's the difference instead of 3 with a 9 after all your life depends apon it 45 all day long
That a good point.
Well put probably why I felt safer
I’ll take more ammo any day.
Your wife bought you a gun...
You're a blessed man.
👏🏼
Yes, Yes I am!
Congrats. I got the inox version. Love it. Very high quality gun. Accurate too.
It's a great pistol!
I had a 92fs brigadier fantastic pistol extremely accurate
The M9 was also used in a few resident evil games called the Samurai edge used by Chris and Jill even Barry’s was more custom made in 40cal
Right there with you on the growing up in the 80's and always wanting one of those. Still waiting on mine - but man I can't wait!
I had a 40 cal version in the police academy.. The only thing I did not like was when racking the slide the safety would engage..
Most people don't like where the safety is.
Takes some control that I don't have to not open that baby up for 2 weeks. I wouldn't be able to resist, no matter how busy, I'd find the time haha. Beautiful gun, my favorite handgun by far.
You know, I really like it. Its a classic like a 68 Mustang.
I miss my Beretta! 😫
We still use the M9 it's slowly being phased out for the Glock 19 & Sig Sauer P229.
Great video and beautiful gun! I’m looking forward to order one if I could find it in California!!
Beautiful...here in India......for gun enthusiasts like me.......its only a dream to own such gorgeous handguns.....due to very strict gun laws.....then again....thank you for this video...felt like I was doing the unboxing......keep up the good work....👍👍👍👍
Thank You for your kind words. I hope that India will rethink their gun laws soon.
@@GreatGunsGreatPeople yes.....hopefully 👍
Man yours came in a hard box, mine came in a cardboard box with all the military insignias on the box. It's a nice piece!
Thank You it has become one of my favorite pistols!
Bought mine way back in 2011 and it came in a box showing all the military branches and 25 years of service. Only had this and my Colt 1991 45. Now I have over 30 lol.
Upgrade the guide rod & spring, its worth it, an extremely accurate, reliable, firearm with little recoil.
I am thinking about it.
My whole military career was with the M9. I can field strip one in my sleep. I can shoot it off handed and still get a 6" group @ 1000 yards...well, maybe at 10 yards. You know what I mean. And the only time I can ever remember a malfunction of the thousand's of rounds I put through them was when we were issued this cheap ass steel rounds instead of brass. Steel cases will not feed through an M9 without some modifications. At least from my experience. Maybe others have had luck with them. Anyways, it's my EDC and I love it.
I was not aware of the problems with steel case ammo. I have a Ruger AR556 which will jam on steel case 223 after only 2 to 5 rounds and I mean jam, like pour oil down the barrel let it soak in and then take a good army metal cleaning rod and pound that case out of there.
It may have been just that brand of steel ammo and not steel ammo in general. And I don't think the issue was feeding, it was extraction. The spent round would not clear the chamber reliably. But that was just a fluke thing, the armory never issued out the steel cases after we complained to them.
So, far Steel has been great for my pistol. Thanks!
Give me the Beretta keep that Sig shit.
Amen!
Want to buy...description ppz
Maaan you got me wishing I was 21 so I could buy a beauty like this! 😭
It is a great pistol!
Ironically 15 round clips are illegal in California.
Ed Brown *magazines*
Ed Brown More reasons for a 45 :)
Don't Ask Don't Tell
Ed Brown it's not a clip it's a magazine and it's not illegal for law enforcement or did you not hear that
Haha! You said clip! 30 caliber magazine clip with a hundred shots per second. Oh my god dude your balls were made for busting.
The m9 is still being shipped to our military and will be in use for at least another decade.
Did you say $499? Who did you order it from?

Great Guns Thank you very much!
Coolest looking 9mm PB handgun ever!! Officer John McLane 😘
Right on!
nice pistol I just purchased one and my LGS told me the blue cup is a pin driving cup for dissasembly, they must be expecting most to buy the steel upgrade kits offered .I did.
I am thinking about upgrading to the steel parts kit.
I bought my parts separately because I didnt want the bulky double safety decocker . I used the wilson combat low profile single side decocker , real nice . another advantage of buying the trigger separate is they give you a D-spring with it witch takes a lb or two off the DA pull. I had to search hi and low to find a standard size mag release button witch baretta dont have in steel but told me where to find but no one had it, finally found it last night at gun parts corp. they have new and used . you will notice a small difference with a steel guide rod alone.and of course the steel trigger feels reel nice on the finger
No one cares about the paper work. Open the damn box
Note taken.
Hahahahaha
lawrence unkart yes
I mean, damn dude. There are actually people out there that are interested in seeing everything that comes in a firearm box. Granted, it could’ve been sped up a tad to get to the gun itself. Regardless, I appreciate you showing everything. That could help someone, in one of those instances where they bought the same gun but are missing items in the box. Absolutely no need to be rude about it. A simple please speed up your videos so you get to the gun itself faster would have been better. Respect goes a long way.
lawrence unkart lol
a Beautiful Firearm and great video construction
Thank You Very Much!
Great unboxing! It's a great gun, greetings from Germany!
Greetings from Iowa!
Check out what Wilson Combat does to these firearms , you can buy them tricked out no wait , just have your checkbook ready!!!
It's a beautiful weapon, congratulations!
Thank You.
Glad you finally got your school supplies For next semester! Lol
no, never take this to school.
Beautiful looking piece of hardware, worth the money .very nice!.
Thank You Alex, it really is sweet.
lol, watch out for Beretta bite! Watched a few people get it during quals!!
jim must have been army
Only a douchebag who choked way too high could get slide bite on a beretta 92... I have huge hands and served with a guy with bigger hands and neither have come close.
Bull shit fake news
John McLean would be proud
In the memory of Max Payne
Yep, I think I might pick one up ,myself. It is a sweet gun. :)
Do it!
The real close to an issued M9 a civilian can get is the Beretta M9 special edition made late 90's.
The only thing special about the " LE " version is it comes with a third magazine, that's it.
i wished to have it
One of the most sharpest firearm's would like to have one myself
Wow you, sir, have infinitely more self control than I.
The website is Lawmens.com a firearms online store for (PUBLIC SAFETY ONLY) but at one point was open to civilians until laws were passed.
M9 is most beautiful gun ever.
Could be!
What sucks in since you live in Massachusetts you are limited to ten round mags unless you can find pre ban mags for a premium price tag. And the 10 lb. Trigger pull sucks too. Love the gun, hate the laws here. I'm also in Massachusetts and own a 92 in stainless. Just wish I could enjoy the gun how it's meant to be carried with a full mag and factory trigger pull, not a Massachusetts gun that has these restrictions.
I have visited Massachusetts and I loved the history and the beauty and Boston, but if I lived in New England, the last state I would live in is Massachusetts. I would live in New Hampshire, hopefully all the Boston Liberals don't ruin that state.
Rolling through the comments G.G. and I didn't see anyone mention...the changing of hands pertains to if you intend to sell to another,the card must go with the gun. beautiful gun by the way. good luck with it and be careful out there.
Beautiful pistol, good luck with it! I have the Beretta M9 22 LR and really like it, looks, feels and operates just like the 92. The 9MM version is on my wish list. I am a revolver guy but have always admired the design and looks of these things, truly a classic pistol. BTW I had heard that they went with the plastic guide rod to shave off an ounce on the weight to make it more competitive. 👍
Thank You, Its a real piece of U.S. Military History. Its a solid (and heavy) pistol compared to the Walther PPQ or Glock. They put a few plastic pieces in the pistol to cut down on the weight.
Agreed…I posted a video on my channel this week saluting my Beretta M9 22 set to military parade music. That’s how I came across your video, auto played after I was watching my video. Nice channel you have, I subbed.
Thank You again. I am trying to develop a channel which will be Pro-Gun and entertaining. Your kind words will motivate me to continue to make videos
That’s what is great about TH-cam. A lot of content out there, people sharing, it’s like a treasure hunt, always great to find a new channel you like. Keep on Trucking!
I love TH-cam Too. You said it all!
