IllinoisAfter a shooting spree, they want to take the guns away from everyone who didn't do it.

-William Burroughs

SJW is not a synonym of "leftists" or "liberals". Left-wing and right-wing positions are based on economics. SJWs are left-authoritarians which means that they are not liberals. Don't paint all leftists or liberals with the same (misguided) brush.

    IIRC, Beretta said the M9A3 variant will have a threaded barrel, so hopefully the regular model will have one as well.

    The backstrap / MHS will be configurable too -- with straight and arched versions to meet different preferences.  At least that is what is being reported.

    If the out the door price is down to with in sight of Glock.  And it is in some other color than dirt. Then it will be on my radar.  As it is now I rarely see a 92 for less than $600, used.  For that money I will hold out for a 90-two.

    Sigh. *insert Firefly "bunk" quote*.

    I like the desert tan look. Black is too mainstream  :cool. Whether I get one when they first come out or not really comes down to price for anyways (always).

    Cerakote finishing is not inexpensive.  They should have black as a factory option.
