92f - doesn't have that upgrade that prevents the slide from shooting back.

92fs - same as above, but it has the upgrade. Note, the older one's have the straight dustcover, while the new ones have a ever so slight curve, that once you see, you can't unsee.

M9 - military designation for 92/92fs

Gonna suggest 92A1, that gives you a rail.

Then perhaps buy a Brigadier slide, because it looks badass and lets the gun eat much hotter loads.

Or just skip all that and buy a Wilson Combat Brigadier, though they're not cheap.

Something I'll recommend heartily is to try out a MecGar 20 round magazine, high quality, high capacity, and it just barely protrudes from your grip.

Bro, the A1 already has a thicker frame and brigadier slide, that's half the reason why the original FS holsters don't fit (other than the rail)
>>
>>32964680
FS if you just like the style of the original and the biggest aftermarket
M9A3 you want essentially the most modern evolution of the 92 series available (not just because of design date, but because of the features)
92A1 if you want a A3 in black and don't mind giving up the threaded barrel and Vertex (straight) frame and you want a brigadier slide and thicker frame

FS stands for fingerstepped, as in it doesn't have a rounded trigger guard.

Surplus 92S because they're dirt cheap and accept modern mags (despite being old european style heel release). If you like the gun and end up buying mags for it, it'll still be compatible with others up to the M9A3 (which at the moment seems incredibly expensive for what it is).

Just a plain old Beretta M9. I would opt for the M9 because it retains the original 92 aesthetics (.40 frame is pig disgusting) and lacks the Ruger-tier WARNINGS on the slide/frame. M9A1/3 if you insist on a rail.
Or look for older 92's from the late 80s and early 90s like an SB or 92f or fs. They are fairly common and are fun to hunt for, just like finding an older Smith & Wesson.
>>32973007

>>
>>32973141
>Is <blank> a good buy for a first <blank>?
The answer is almost always yes. Just buy what you like and learn about it as you go. Maybe you'll end up liking it and buying more/variations of the same gun. Maybe you won't, but you'll learn what to look for next and you can resell it.

Just get whatever you're into, dude.

Yeah they're quite alright pistols, be mindful of the fact that the magazine release is in the wrong place.

Optionally you could look at a used Taurus PT92, but the thing is that you'll have to replace the shitty factory magazines to get it to work well so that will eat into your funds in itself.

You could always just try to save up for a used 92FS, you see them for below 500 at times.

92s is fine.
l like the heel mag release. Push the button and the empty mag falls right into the palm of my hand. Works good for mag retention battery of arms.
The standard us version button placement actually requires me to change my grip on the pistol to release the mag. Essentially givng up a certain level of control and readiness.
The heel release doesn't require changing your grip on the pistol so you always have maximum positive control and readiness of you weapon

>Push the button and the empty mag falls right into the palm of my hand.
You can do that with the trigger guard release.

> Essentially givng up a certain level of control and readiness.
You're changing a mag. Chances are that you're probably already empty anyway. Doesn't really matter how ready you are when the gun has no bullets in it. I mean, I guess you make the case of betting your life on the one round left in battery during a tactical reload.

The reasons why Beretta relocated the mag release is because 1) The release can switch sides for lefty shooters 2) The off hand can already be reaching for a fresh magazine while the shooting hand is dropping the empty/old one on the ground for faster magazine exchanges. With the heel release you can't do that simultaneously since the off hand has to hit the release first and then reach for the mag as two sequential steps.

The only legitimate reason to go with a heel release is shooter's preference where the guard release is obtrusive to the shooter's grip and the heel release feels more comfy.

>>32972440
>Did I do good?

The dust cover is the difference. The 92F frame has the straight dust cover without the "read manual before use" on the right side. The 92FS cover is slanted with the manual shit.

And the sights on the Samurai Edge are slightly different, but they don't exist outside the game or airsoft replicas. The RPD requirements for the gun stated that it needed dotted post sights, so that's what I have.

Just wanted to join in with everyone else letting you know you're retarded and wrong.

I've shot a 92FS for over 10 years and have never once accidentally engaged the safety. I have a PX4 which has a slide mounted safety and have never accidentally engaged that. Some people actually switch their PX4 safety levers to 92 styles. Why would they do that if there was some massive 99.99% of the time error that came with the levers?

I also have an M9A3 and have never accidentally engaged the safety, but if you're a scared child about, the M9A3 has the safety levers canted upwards to help prevent this fantasy problem you babies on the internet invented because Colion Noir said the safety hampered his "power stroke"
>>
>>32966728
The open slide is very intentional. It is a feature, not a flaw.
>>
>>32966891
Given how easy it is to track down a 92fs for sub $500 in the used market I have a hard time being sold on the 92s.

Is that notch not supposed to be there? What's wrong with it?
>>
>>32982048

It's present on some. It's only important if you need mags compatible with the 92s or another heel style release.

The upper notch is for the new mag release, so this one doesn't matter either way for a newer gun.

92A1, 92G-SD, 92 Brigadier, M9A3, Wilson Combat Brig Tactical. All others are just inferior versions. Pick how much you wanna spend and buy one.

>>32964680
The M9A1 is the coolest IMO.
>>
>>32980500
Buy MecGar 18rd mags instead. They just as well as factory mags because Beretta, Sig, CZ, & others contract them to make their factory mags. If you wanna spend $15-$20 more for a PVD coating and 1-3 less rounds go ahead.
>>
>>32982209
I'm pretty sure MecGar makes all of Beretta's mags today.
>>
>>32982209
The guy needs mags compatible with the retro 92s. Modern Mec-Gar mags lack the correct notch to interface with the 92s heel mag catch circled here >>32980850.
I do not know if modern Mec-Gars could be cut to accommodate the old latch, as the spring in the new magazines sits directly against the sides of the mag body.

>>

The closest you can probably get off a stock Beretta 92 would be the Brigadier Elite.

Basically you're looking for a Beretta without a rail, with a straight dust cover, and a brigadier slide. The Elite also has the front serrations.

For actual use as a defensive weapon.

If the military does end up selling the surplus M9, you'd probably only have to change the guide spring to get it working good as new. Maybe change the locking block for good measure or just get a new barrel assembly.

The military P320 design hasn't been finalized yet. If you want a "true" military Sig, it's better to wait and see what kind of turd falls out of the gubbmint's ass this time around.

I wish Beretta offered a more subdued gray finish that's not a bright as the Inox, but more character than the standard Bruniton black. Black is boring and Inox looks too much like you work for the Cartels.
>>
>>32984213

Rifling looks like the gun was barely shot at all, but the slide still has sexy wear on the finish.

For $250, that's not bad at all.

>>32989964
For some reason the aesthetics (or lack thereof) on the p320 just disgusts me. I know it's a good pistol and works fine, but I could never own one simply because I can't stand to look at it.
>>
>>32990516
You could get some cerecoat done if that is your thing, or just get a Bruniton one and wait for the holster wear to come in. I have a Bruniton Vertec and just swapped in some Inox parts to give it some character.

It's basically a just weird looking 90-series pistol. Feels and shoots just the same. The reason why it looked so different is because it was "ergonomically enhanced" to be less likely to snag on a holster as well as few adjustments for comfort. A lot of the features that first showed up on the 90-Two would be later used on the -A1 models (captive spring/rod assembly, slide buffer, dovetail sights, and pic rail) and the M9A3 (swappable grip sizes, checkered front and back straps, canted safety lever).

>>32995178
I think it's because calling it the "90-Two" was a bit confusing from a marketing standpoint. Word of mouth matters a lot and if you say "Beretta Ninety-Two" what people think is the normal Beretta 92.

Instead of making a product that would literally be known as the "Beretta Ninety-Two", they should have gone with "902" for "Beretta Nine-Oh-Two" or perhaps "920" for "Beretta Nine-Twenty".

In fact, I vote that we call it the "Nine-Oh-Two" verbally to help distinguish it from the regular pistol from now on.
>>
>>32995471
Honestly Beretta must have a bunch of retards running their marketing department. In "Glock" they talk about how a PD asking Beretta about buying the 92 as their service pistol would have a marketing guy drop off a beat up 92fs with 1 mag. When they called Glock they got 3 or 4 new Glocks right out of the box with several mags and where aloud to keep the Glocks even if they didn't buy a contract.

Beretta really shoots them self in the foot with marketing sometimes. Just look at the difference in the facebook pages of Glock vs Beretta.

The conception of the name is meant to illustrate that it was a second "generation" of the 90-series of pistols with all the upgrades it has gotten in a single iteration and sort of relaunch the model. In Beretta circles, it goes by a few names when verbalized which include "Ninety-dash-two" and "Tee-double-u-oh" among other.

As for why that particular model never took off, it's several reasons. Chief among those reasons is that every LEO that wanted a Beretta already had them the mid-2000s when the 90-Two was released. Also there were people who thought that the frame was made of polymer instead of metal because the plastic grip and rail cover covered up most of the frame. Also, the redesign looks pretty funky and may have been a turn-off for some people. It's probably what drove Beretta to just apply the upgrades of the 90-Two and adapt them into the more traditionally styled pistol which lead to the creation of the A1 models (although dropping a few features in the process).

I'm not questioning the power of the 10mm. Just pointing out that very few guns are offered in 10mm, of those, few are reasonably affordable. Ammo is also expensive and the full-power stuff is harder to find in your LGS/sporting goods department. And you really have to buy the full-power rounds to make buying a 10mm gun worth while, otherwise you're just throwing away money on the generic brands with glorified .40 performance.

It's been over 30 years and the 10mm never really took off. Only being perpetuated by a small enthusiast community and in LEOs sporadically which is precisely what makes it a meme round.

>>33000801
And here is the point where enthusiast becomes fanboy. If you want people to agree with your purchasing decisions because you need that affirmation, try not being a prick about it.

10mm is fine for Alaska carry, but not everyone is worried about moose attacks. Any one of the big 3 is a fine person killer, and so are many other less common rounds like .41 AE, .45 GAP, and .357 SIG.

Not the original Px4 poster but I have one too. It is super smooth and carries well. Very ergonomic and has rounded edges.

The only failure I had was with the first mag. It stovepiped 2 rounds. I quickly broke it down and gave it some lube. No problems since, probably close to 3k rounds.

Bumping with my 92s that just arrived. Hardly any external wear besides a bit of finish on the grip and a dirty barrel.

Bullshit. All the m9/92fs owners I know are military or former military.

>I've never met a soldier/sailor/marine that came home and explicitly looked for an M9 to carry or even plink with.
Because most of 'em were forced to work with 30 year old beat to hell franken guns assembled from the parts of five other guns.

Dad? Is it really you? It has been so long.

You know that I am retiring now. It feels strange, but then I am sure you understand. Looking back, were you proud? I know that you worked hard, no matter what was asked of you. I respect that.

What do you do when the work is over? Will anyone still need me?

The P38 and P1/P4 are aesthetic.

The grip is pretty fat though, so if someone would make a new version of it that took Beretta 92 magazines (which would easily fit in that space), as well as maybe give the slide a Brigadier style cut, that would make for an incredibly sweet target pistol I think.

I mean the big appeal of old single-stack 9mm pistols is that they're slim, and the P38 kind of isn't. Still a great pistol for it's time though, easily on par with the 1911 and TT33.

Sure, I love weird projects and customs like that.

Well, I don't know how to explain it. Could be my age bracket. 34-38 average

I volunteer for a veteran advocacy. Getting recently separated service men hooked up with education, job training, and social groups.

When we shoot, I see a lot of Glock, Sig, and HK.
If I mention M9 92fs etc, I get a lot of groans.

Almost zero revolvers and only occasionally CZ

That's because vets generally have shit taste and follow whatever the current trend is when they get out. Besides, most enlisted men won't have much experience with the M9. Only officers and medical personnel get them issued nowadays. I was lucky to range qual with one in my 4 years.

Honestly though, I loved shooting it and didn't have any problems. Got out in 2013 and began looking for a carry piece. Found the 92FS Compact. Tested it out, along with some other pistols. Ended up buying it. Then bought a full size a year later. They get such a bad rap thanks to rumors propagated in the military. It's crazy.

Im not sure why this makes anons cringe so bad. I never thought it ruined the gun. In fact it breaks up a lot of blank space on the frame that might look plain and wierd otherwise. Theres always been a lot to look at on a 92. The glocks by contrast have almost nothing on them small detail wise. I prefer it.

God damn there's something so endearing about a well used surplus gun ending up in the hands of a civilian, like a worn and torn up old soldier finally retiring into a comfy civilian life with someone who legitimately loves her, scars and all.
