    Extremely impressed! The “yes sir” of the young Master Gunsmith proved to me all I need. I will be ordering soon!

    Love my WC Beretta's. I have all 3. Brig tac, Centurion and Compact. Never know which one to carry, they are all superb.

      I also have all 3 now, and they are All Excellent! I would sell all 3 of my 10 year old Beretta 92’s...... but it is hard for me to let them go. 🤗😎👍👮🏻‍♂️🇺🇸

    Stock Beretta 92FS with an 8lb double action trigger pull!? My experience working on a family member's is quite different. Before installation of the D Spring the stock pull was clear over 11lbs and even after the D spring install it was still over 9lbs. Also, most people who own one will tell you their stock double action trigger pull is somewhere in the 10-15lb range.

    How does the checkering and trigger guard rounding affect the aluminum frame anodizing? I've always heard it's a big no-no to break through an aluminum frame's anodizing. Thanks.

    • @jasonrogers6454
      @jasonrogers6454 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It's a big no-no only if you don't re-anodize the frame. No concern here.

  • @bosse641
    @bosse641 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Would love to see one with a closed top on the slide. Would be so nice. And would make it a little heavier and less felt recoil.
    Does anyone make it with a closed top on the slide ? That would be a new and different option for buyers. I sure would like to own one.

    • @MegaScorpio43
      @MegaScorpio43 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      NO... The open slide is part of the reason that Beretta never have ejection malfunctions and it helps on cooling the barrel so I don't think you will ever see that on the 92 series.

  • @MegaMarclar
    @MegaMarclar 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Can you machine a picatiny onto the factory 92fs handle assy? Rather than having to add a bolt on rail system..

    • @MegaScorpio43
      @MegaScorpio43 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Just buy the 92A1, M9A1, 92A3, Brigadier Tac or 92 compact L and its already on there....No machining needed.

    what exactly is a "G" conversion...? thank you

    • @spacebear49
      @spacebear49 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      G is decocker only. I believe it stands for "Gendarmerie Nationale", or the French police, as they were the first agency to request a decocker only function from Beretta. The kit is available from Beretta for about $55. This has been available since the M9A3 came out. Prior to that, it required custom machining.

    I agree....if a Baretta doesn't have the "G" conversion I wouldn't even consider carrying it.... Also I just hate slide-mounted controls, it's just not a good idea in general imo

    • @electroniccheeks
      @electroniccheeks 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    • @arizonapatriot5642
      @arizonapatriot5642 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree. I had a makarov that disassembled itself when you fired under stress. The safety popped out and the firing pin hit me in the face and was lost. Had to replace it

    • @MegaScorpio43
      @MegaScorpio43 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I've carried a Beretta without the G conversion on an off over 25 years....Never had a problem through all my training and shooting of accidentally engaging the safety when reloading. I'm left handed and love where the controls are on the Beretta and I prefer the slide mounted de-cocker/Safety instead of the frame mounted.
