The 92A1/96A1 have a blue aluminum frame buffer. In addition, the takedown lever/button is different from the standard 92FS. Also, the slide is slightly thicker and the front of the slide the log is bigger making the 92A1/96A1 slides not compatible with the regular 92 frames.
The thicker beaver tail is not due to caliber, that's new Beretta. As far as the takedown button goes all 92 series model have an oval one like the 92F but the 92A1 & 96A1 both have a circle shaped button. This makes sense as the 92A1 & 96A1 are not on the same frame as any other 92 series pistol, they're built on the "90Two" frame. They will not fit any M9/92FS/M9A1/M9A3/92X holster.
Several videos on youtube say yes, you can use the 96A1 platform and convert to a 9mm as long as you switch the barrel and the mags to 9mm. Some even say that the .40 cal mags can also handle the 9mm rounds. I will personally be testing this out in the next week or so, I ordered a 9mm barrel and mags for my 96A1.
Nice pair of pistols, i currently have a 92x RDO compact and I'm thinking about getting a 40 s&w but I can't decide between the 96a1 and the PX4 Storm... What do you think?
Why would they put a. Polymer on the new one vs a metal one? 🤷 Are you going to dwitch that out? Have you done any mods or upgrades? Do you have any other 40 s&w pistols? Hows the 96A1 holding up? How much did you get it for? I'm hearing $750ish is a conmon price
The best looking hand helds ever

All 92s evolved over time.
what's the difference in how they shoot?

Can you tell me if its true that the 9 mm magazine and cannon can be used in the beretta 96a1? Thanks for the video!!
No you can't use it in the 96. It fits in the gun but it's not usable you will need a 96 mag for a 96

You probably can't go wrong with either but I prefer metal frame guns so I like the 96 but the PX4 is cool too.
Nice!
