Mine's the G model, no safety just decocker which didn't bother me in the least, night sights and 2 mags.

Hey, that's what mine was. Not very common.

What's up with all the weird Beretta love recently? I thought nobody liked them and now WTA is slobbering all over 'em.

We're all gun whores, that's what.

This time next year we'll be slobbering all over something made by Ruger or Remington (I know!!).

Yeah, ive been rocking a 96D as my EDC gun for a few weeks now.....and im still in love with it. I honestly have no more problem carrying it than my Glock 22.

Full day of packing the 92FS. No problems. No feelings of being a limp dick because I'm packing a 9mm. The size, the weight... no problem packing from Early to Late... Still packing it, actually.

I'm a little disturbed by that George.

Did he steal that off the wall of a church?

From the steeple, by the size of it...

Back in the 80's, when I was young and a Browning Hi-Power snob, I was against the Beretta without having touched one. (Hey, I was like 12-16, and only had read about 'em in American Rifleman.) But Bruce Willis and Mel Gibson made me a 92F fan.

It looks beautiful. Its only weakness is the possibility of a dead trigger when you slingshot the slide from slidelock and don't give the decocker that stab back to hot condition. And the G family solved that bit for those people, and since I'm a southpaw, I just poke the slide release with my index finger. (I also never have to worry about my thumb knocking a stop into a malfuntion with my thumb.

)

Ever since then, my personal identification adventure hero, Peter Leskow, has been a dyed in the wool Beretta man. I swear to Glob, if I hadn't spent so much on vacation, I'd have bought that Inox Beretta from the range we went to, FOID be damned. When I hold a 92, my left arm feels complete.

it's cyclical yo.

i've always loved the 92. i've been half looking to pick up a second for years but it's a low priority and i can never decide just which variant i want.

Ernest Langston used to do awesome custom work, specializing on the Beretta 92 series. He was extremely competitive with them too.
His shop, LTT was THE place to send your Beretta too.
Wish he still did the Beretta work.

SeanP - Man, don't be a hater. That's Mario on a Day off. He's packing all those Gold Coins.

You want a criminal to see your gun and get all hot and bothered?

This makes me think of the Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor quote: I speak Spanish to God, Italian to Women, French to the Nobility, and German to my ~~gun~~ horse.

I wouldn't mind a 92G or a 93.

This thread has me wanting my own 92. It was one of the first 9mm's I shot. I have the opportunity right now to buy a 92FS Centurion for <$400 from my uncle's friend. He says it's in good condition but "well used". Anyone have experience with the Centurion?

GeorgeHill · « **Reply #38 on:** November 13, 2012, 11:49:35 pm »

They shoot awesome. You'll love it.

Beretta 92 and a 9mm Browning hi power are the softest shooting pistols that I've shot, that weren't .22s.

But I'm not going to sell my sig to get a Beretta. . .

It'd be like dumping Bar Rafael for Kate Upton.

Bar Rafaeli:

I think my brain just short-circuited...

BTW, the hot model in the Fiat commercials?

Romanian. Go figure.

Erm... a good chunk of those photos are questionably safe for work and sanity...

GeorgeHill · « **Reply #45 on:** November 15, 2012, 03:53:04 pm »

Yeah, I'd dump the other one for Kate Upton... better DSL's. - The PIG.

FMJ · « **Reply #46 on:** November 15, 2012, 04:04:24 pm »

I'll take Bar....

bar none.

She's got an exotic look to her with intoxicating eyes. Only a hot redhead could directly compete with that.

Thernlund · « **Reply #47 on:** November 15, 2012, 04:23:46 pm »

Upton.

Rafaeli looks like she'd be a PITA. Upton looks more submissive. In a blond or a redhead, that's a key feature. Moreso a red than a blonde.

In a brunette, you want strong and assertive.

Alright... I engaged in the piggery. See? I'm one of you guys. Now, enough of that... back to Berettas and the like.

cpaspr · « **Reply #48 on:** November 15, 2012, 04:35:15 pm »

I'd never really thought about it before, but I've never even handled a Beretta. Of any rendition.

Hmm. How to remedy that?

And I'm not aware of any of my friends that own one. They may have one, I just don't know it. Or I don't have enough friends with guns. Something.
