Red and black or purple and black for the grips. I had the full size of this and it was an amazing pistol. I sold it because the exposed trigger bar interferes with my grip. I’m left handed and I had nowhere to put my right thumb that worked out for me. Disappointing, but that’s how it goes sometimes.
@TheLegoJoker I understand that. One of my best friends is a lefty and I see him experience the problems you mention. Thank you very much for stopping by.
I’ve got the same gun. They weren’t offering it with RDO when I got mine. Sort of want to get another slide for that reason. One of my all time faves. I have some FDE Lok grips with the same pattern as your orange ones. They’re very nice. I recently sent my barrel out to get ported by the same company Langdon uses. Interested to see how it performs after. I also picked up a PX4 CC from LTT a few months ago and it’s one of my favorite guns in its size range. Extremely accurate. DA is not as nice as my 92 but still pretty good. SA is wonderful of course.
The solid brass are for competition. They're meant to add weight to the gun. If you will be carrying that gun for CCW or Duty those solid brass are coming off in a heart beat since it's already a rather big and heavy gun compared to polymer pistols at least.
@Michael Shulte they look even better in person. The colors are more vibrant than what comes across through the camera. Thank you very much for stopping by.
Love my 92G Elite LTT, LE model. It is my favorite 9mm DA/SA pistol in my collection. Very soft shooting and the trigger is as you stated "smooth as butter".
I had their RDO slide and #12 trigger kit on my gun. Ended up selling it off to fund a Staccato P. I have no regrets on the Staccato, but sometimes I miss the setup. I'll probably get a complete Langdon gun one of these days. The reset with that Langdon trigger bar is absolutely ridiculous.
Good evening, MDP, and warm greetings from the Windy City on a Sunday night! Many thanks for this excellent, well constructed, and precisely detailed video. I am genuinely looking forward to now watching all of your videos, in fact, I just enjoyed your “Favorites of 2022” and, as they say, ‘I’m hungry for more!’ Three questions: 1. Were you ever able to determine what was causing your Full-Size Langdon LTT Elite pistol to shoot low? 2. IYHO, beside the obvious, what should be considered in trying to decide which of Ernest Langdon’s three pistols you should invest in? For example, why choose a Centurion over a Full-size model? 3. One of the things that has always appealed to me about the Beretta (my first was the Model 70S…and she’s a beauty!) 90 series pistols is their look, the aesthetic of these weapons. I am not sure if the full-sized model you demonstrate in your excellent video was Red Dot ready, but in other videos I have seen, the bulky and seemingly cumbersome Red Dot “piggy-back” is, for me anyway, a perhaps very practical but nonetheless clunky distraction. What does the weapon look like in the Red Dot ready configuration, i.e., is there a tin plate superimposed on the top of the slide, surrounded by screw holes or heads? Is it easy to return the gun to its standard, very becoming aesthetic by removing the Red Dot or is purchasing a second, probably very costly slide the only solution? P.S. All of Langdon’s current pistols, fitted with I believe all five of his options, list for $1,950. The full-sized and Centurion models ship with three magazines of 18 rounds, while the Compact model’s three magazines holds 15 rounds. Again, many thanks for your very worthwhile efforts! Best regards, Bill
Hello Bill. I will do my best to answer your questions below. 1. I purchased this LTT from a friend. Apparently he changed the sights that came with it and installed an incorrect pair of sights. This was causing it to shoot low. 2. Of course the LTT that I showcased in the video, the Beretta PX4 Compact Carry (One of my all-time favorites) and the new HKP 30 with the Langdon magic. As to which one you should purchase, it’s all personal preference and what the intended role of the firearm is. 3. In the past the only way to install a red dot on a Beretta 92 was to buy a dove-tailed mounting plate which you had to install in place of the rear sight. Langdon redesigned some of the internals of the Beretta 92 and was able to actually cut into the slide and mount the red dot much lower than the on top of the slide dovetailed option. I hope this helps. Thank you very much for watching Bill.
I had a factory 92G LTT that I wasn't impressed with, but I sure love my 92X Performance that I will never sell. My 92X Performance wears the LOK Veloce black & gray grips. She's gorgeous!
@SilverBack Gorilla I wonder if you had an LTT that came from Beretta and not from Langdon. They are different. The 92X is awesome. As always, thank you very much for stopping by.
I'd like to try one. So far I've tried a regular 92FS and and a M9A4 to see if my hands can deal with the chunky grip. What I found out is that The 92FS had even wider grip cause it had a round counter installed (weird but cool) and the M9A4 taught me that I don't like the straight line back of the grip. Does Langdon do jobs on regular 92 models, the ones that got the frame safety or the 92X series?
Hey buddy, hope this answer isn't too late. The M9, 92fs, M9A1, Elite LTT and the Brigadier all come with that little extra hump/thickness in the back that you seem to prefer. The Vertecs, M9A3, M9A4, and the new 92X series pistols all come with that thin straight grip you didn't like. The Elite LTT langdon makes is done on the M9A1 frame which is pretty much almost identical to the 92fs frame (with the exception of the accessory rail and some front and back checkerin). If you were to hold a 92fs with ultra thin grips and a Elite LTT with ultra thin grips, they would pretty much feel the same since theyre dimensionally the same. So yes, just go with an Elite LTT.
Langdon will work on a 92 if you want to send it in for a price. Honestly I would buy the trigger reset spring and hammer springs installed by myself because that is a very cheap upgrade buying just the parts from Langdon. Or I would just buy a new pistol from LTT:
Definitely the black and purple ones. I ordered cool hand grips from amazon for my 92x centurion it's size. I'm thinking of getting that myself because I'm handicapped and I have one working arm and hand but I'm actually strong as a lefty. I have a lot of magazines for the 92 all 92 magazines except the compact work in the 92s. Beretta said that use a snap cap in the pistol.
@@MDpolo I'm gonna order more snap cans next week and I can throw mine away because they are crap. I tired to put them in a magazine and I couldn't. I wanted to show my wife that how safe Berettas are. (I don't like dry firing) with anything in the chamber and I wanted to show her how to load the pistol but I will show her that next week.
@Pistol Pete they can engrave the LTT logo on the brass grips but they are busy and it was gonna take a bit longer than the timeframe I had to film the video.
I don't own any 92s but I've always wanted one! I think the red/black or purple/black grips look best. I really want one of Langdon's 92s! Everything I've seen and read points to his being the best. You saying the trigger being better than the Phenix pistols is a bold statement and impressive! Makes me want an LTT even more! It sounds like you believe this to be the pinical of DA/SA pistols. Is that what you are saying?
@Inspectorman what I am saying is that to date, it has one of the smoothest double action triggers that I have tried. The single action is right on par with the Redback.
@@MDpolo Have you ever shot a CZ Shadow with the Cajun Gun Works trigger job done on it? I'd be curious to know how that compares. I have a Shadow I plan to send to them.
@@MDpolo Thanks for the reply! I may have to reconsider sending the CZ to Cajun then and just get the LTT. It'd be a good excuse to get another pew pew!
@@inspectorman2018 if you do, make sure you get it directly from Langdon Tactical with the trigger fob and NP3 package. Don’t get the LTT from the Beretta website. They are not the same.
That is a very nice pistol! All the grips look great on it, but my favorite is your solid brass set. Spectacular! Great trigger too. Speaking of triggers, have you ever fired a Sig P-250? Most people dislike it because it is a DAO trigger, but it is one of my favorite triggers. I'd be interested in getting your take on it. Perhaps you could even do a review on it if you come across one.
I do not own one but I have fired a P250. It is probably one of the best double action only triggers I have fired. If I come across one, for sure I’ll make a video on it. Good idea! Thank you very much for stopping by.
IMO, Definetly Black & Red grips. It's really a beautiful pistol. You could remove a little (Thousoundths of an inch and shoot to assure bullet placement) material off the front site to adjust your impact higher. However, you may or may not need to remove enough metal that your front dot is partially removed. The other option is different ammo or different sites.
@frank browning yea, Langdon told me that the wrong sights were installed. That’s why I was shooting low. With the new sights, it works perfectly. Thank you so much for stopping by!
My friend let me shoot his and I really liked with with the upgraded trigger he got with his. I never shoot at a 6 o'clock hold because my shots are always low. I either aim with the three dots across the center or slightly above. The brass grips a a light bright for me but they do feel well in the hand. The purple grips are my favorite out of the grip. Have you tried the 92X Performance? Not sure you reviewed it. If not, you should. Great video as always!
@@MDpolo yes , twice lol, they said they would be heavy. And they have no plans to make them. I have a copper set ( not Lok on my Hudson ) and it looks great. Brass is nice but copper is better. I have the Brass on my Walther Q5SF.
Red and black or purple and black for the grips. I had the full size of this and it was an amazing pistol. I sold it because the exposed trigger bar interferes with my grip. I’m left handed and I had nowhere to put my right thumb that worked out for me. Disappointing, but that’s how it goes sometimes.

I like the dark color. Cant go wrong with black
I have a brand new Wilson combat centurion beretta. And just ordered langdons Centurion. My Wilson is unreal.
For me, I like the black & red or the black & purple grips.
I’ve got the same gun. They weren’t offering it with RDO when I got mine. Sort of want to get another slide for that reason. One of my all time faves.

I have a video coming out soon on the PX4 CC. Another very nice offering by Langdon Tactical. Thank you very much for stopping by.
You can send the slide to LTT for the Optic Cuts to get the RDO abilities. Glad to see you like the elite.
The solid brass are for competition. They're meant to add weight to the gun. If you will be carrying that gun for CCW or Duty those solid brass are coming off in a heart beat since it's already a rather big and heavy gun compared to polymer pistols at least.
That reset is crazy I think it's worth the money
@Waterhead 1 it is crazy good. Thank you very much for stopping by.
The purple look remarkably better than I would have thought.

@@OldManStrength2112 yea, those don’t come with the Langdon trigger or the NP3 coating.
Is that pistol decock only or does it have a safety ?
Beretta is a good gun. Langdon makes it a great gun.
I completely agree. Thank you very much for stopping by.
How did you change out the grips?
I'd like to try one. So far I've tried a regular 92FS and and a M9A4 to see if my hands can deal with the chunky grip.

WOW. SUPER BEAUTIFUL , I LIKE THE MP3 SILVER TWO TONE LOOK , BLACK AND RED WOOD LOOK . STUNNING BEAUTIFUL 😍 ❤️
Fantastic beauty I like the purple and black grip. Love my Beretta’s I have a 92FS I sent to Wilson Combat
It is spectacular. Thank you very much for stopping by.
Nice looking LTT. The black and red stocks look best to me. 👌
Thank you very much for stopping by.
Langdon Tactical turns out some great work. And go with the brass LOK grips.
Yeah, those brass grips took this gun to a different level. As always, thank you very much for stopping by.
I thought the compact had 13 round mags and pinky extender magazine base pads.
I’m going with what the box label says.
Hope to get one early next year. Beautiful handgun.
It is a beautiful handgun and one of the best triggers that I have ever fired. Thank you very much for stopping by.

@USMC 64 They are pretty sweet. Thank you very much for stopping by.
BLACK AND PURPLE
That’s my favorite combination as well. Thank you very much for stopping by.
Black and red, the brass is gauche.
I know, but now you can get the brass grips in black. The weight makes an enormous difference at the range.
That's a nice looking pistol.
Thank you very much.

I see a spaghetti 🍝 blaster 🔫 I click. I instantly watch.
My full size LTT shoots point of aim
The problem with this one was that the previous owner installed the wrong sights on it.
You do not seem to relax your finger after pulling the trigger. If you keep the tension of your finger, that pulls your shots down.
Yes, thank you. I appreciate your comment and the information. Thank you for stopping by
I thought the brass was fake ivory which I thought looked fantastic.
Black and purple or black and red
I like all of them, but the black and purple does look pretty special. Thank you for stopping by.
