Great grips, VZ makes some nice g10 grips. The golfball grips may be a bit much for people with office worker hands, but I live in humid Mississippi so it works out.

Are they thinner than the stock grips? OP here, the one thing I don't like about this is that the grips seem a bit chunkier than they need to be. Still comfortable, but could be improved if they were maybe 3-5mm thinner.

>>33340558
Yep. Also for the 3 position safety. And the price.

>>33340461
Thanks. I personally don't like the brand Taurus, but the PT92 line is an affordable option for someone that either doesn't like the safety position or just simply can't shell out the cash for the beretta. I've shot both, the 92fs has a overall better fit and finish. I don't have anything against the pt92, i've just been bitten by the beretta bug.

>>33340583
It's a hair thinner, haven't put a gauge to it or anything. It's listed as being thinner than stock grips, can't really tell a difference when it's on the gun. Wilson combat makes a ultra thin g10 grip iirc.

>>33340592
Alright, I can respect that. I do, however, reccomend saving a beretta (I think bo "mothballs" tach has a good deal going rn), its nice out of the box and safety/decocker its just training hurdle, get used to a pinching like grip if youre gonna slingshot it and/or train in a sweep montion with your firing hand thumb immediately while your support hand gets back into position. Either way I don't think theres a wrong choice here. One day ... Maybe beretta will offer options.

>>33340662
Who has a good deal? Also, I plan on carrying in DA, but my wife prefers cocked and locked.
>>33340603
I'm usually not a Taurus fan either, but the fact that it's the same factory and everything tells me it's not so bad.

>>33340603
>but the PT92 line is an affordable option for someone that either doesn't like the safety position

If you're poor, a slide mounted safety is the least of your worries. While I dislike the type F configured M9's and greatly prefer a type G, it's a non issue.

People are way too fucking picky with "b-but slide frame safety" like how people incessantly moan about high bore axis. If you would actually shoot and practice manipulations, you would find that using a slide mounted whatever is absolutely a non issue.

This is coming from someone who uses Sigs a lot and prefers the Sig's decocker placement. I carry a PX4 and using the levers isn't an issue at all whatsoever.

Come to think of it, the PX4 would be a poorfag's better option because you don't need to shell out $150 for a Type G conversion.

Proud owner of a Beretta 1301 comp shotgun and PX4 storm. Likey both, they good funs.

>>33340694
I can remember what rules are, so I won't post links but check slick guns and botach. Solid deal on M9's with 3 mags.

>>33340704
I agree. the safety/decocker position is a non issue for me, which I've have a good bit of trigger time behind it. It's just the most common issue for most people I see complaining about the 92 series.

Not discounting you but I've never read or seen any evidence of this and personally know of other individuals, including instructors and LEOs that carry the same way. Thanks for the heads up I'll look into it though.

D-springs are a solid upgrade if anyone is wondering.

>>33341363
Fair enough, I will share my reasoning.

The manual specifically instructs the user not to carry half cocked, and having seen a lot of m9s I get why. The half cock notch is very small, and dropping the gun on the hammer, or hitting it with something (rifle butt, vehicle door) can peen or even sheer the notch. It is there to allow the user to safely set the hammer down after staging. I am of the opinion that the firing pin block makes that superfluous, but I am just some guy.

>>33341542
Yeah everything they have is cringy and way overpriced. It was just a option, a shit one but still an option. It mainly boils down to hew screws or standard. I pefer standard over hex simply because I can use my leatherman to fix a loose screw if need be.

No idea how you reached that conclusion.

I meant that there's an auction on GB for a 92F with a pitted up barrel going cheap, and I thought it would be a decent deal if I was going to be swapping out the slide and barrel anyway.

Ive shot a Beretta once.
Felt great in my hand. Was easy to shoot. I much preferred it to a Glock.

Shooting it one handed has nice too.
I have giant pancake hands. It felt good in hand.

Only downside is the fucking SLIDE MOUNTED DECOCKER/SAFETY

Thank you. Are the 9 and 40 mags for berettas the same? Do they have the chambering stamped on the side? Do you own one and what do you think about it compared to other berettas? Sorry for the questions, I just think they're neat.

>>33347586
>Are the 9 and 40 mags for berettas the same?
Not entirely. The round indicators are different and I've read that the feed lips are a bit wider for the .40 mags. However I know for a fact that you can use either round in either magazine.

Do they have the chambering stamped on the side?
On the mags? No. On the gun itself, caliber is on the barrel. You can also read the serial numbers on the slide, frame, or barrel and figure out what caliber they left the factory as.

>Do you own one
Yes.

>and what do you think about it compared to other berettas?
There's a lot of cool features on it that aren't seen on the standard 90-series and it feels more ergonomic. It doesn't have the combat trigger guard like the FS and M9 but that's just personal preference. Also, you're limited in grip options because the regular 90-series grips don't fit the 90-Two which means your choices are either the standard grip it comes with or the Beretta-brand Beretta™ slim grip so you can forget about getting any sexy walnut grips. Also the Beretta shop no longer has the slim grip insert so good luck ever finding one.

I know that there are one or two other people on /k/ with 90-Twos so you might get their input, too.

You can also look into the -A1 pistols as they've got most of the features that the 90-Two has, but with more tradtional looks.

I say get a 92 for your first, it has a great trigger out of the box, very easy to handle, very user friendly so if you bring novices out to range that is a plus, is aesthetic af.

The usp has some quirks such a terrible trigger which I'm told is remedied by an LEM or match trigger kit ($150 for either last i looked) you'll probably ride the safety/decocker and cause a malf. And never do it again like I did, with the 92fs you'll do a similar thing with the safety/decocker and get over it immediately don't buy into the memes. Is very aesthetic af. God I want a color framed usp I don't care what color.

All in all, how much do you want to spend? Is new vs used an issue for you? Magazine availability, cost of parts and accessories, .etc. Go get exactly what you want. I'm of the opinion that you'll be more enthusiastic and have a greater desire to shoot, practice, train, and carry if you don't compromise.

I found one of these earlier Brig Elites with a stainless barrel already in it and a decocker only, which seems like a great jumping-off point for a Samurai Edge.

What are those things worth these days? And is it possible/reasonable to remove the Elite markings on the slide without fucking the finish up? I know jack shit about how the slide work will need to be done.

1. I wouldn't mess up a Brig Elite slide for the build, myself. I'd personally leave the slide alone, although having the front serrations is a big step ahead for the Samurai Edge build. Are you hellbent on doing a true reproduction of the ingame pistol? If not, you could get the Brig Elite and the grips and call it a day, and it'd still look great and be cool as fuck, and the only thing you'd be missing was the STARS engraving.

2. The slide would have to be refinished anyways if you got the Samurai Edge engravings.

Why does that fucker look so huge on you?

Also I read a thing about the Brigadier being developed to deal with +P ammunition better than the regular 92. Does a Brigadier slide also require a new block also?

>>33349341
The Brigadier Elites are awesome guns and aren't made any more. Don't be a retarded fudd and bubba one up just to make it look like a video game gun.

>>33349389
That's a good point. Worst case I still think it looks and feels pretty nice. Looking more at it, there are parts like the hammer and shorter barrel that make it not so great for a full reproduction.

It was $700 OTD with 4 mags and looked to be in pretty good condition. It looks like they were only produced for a few years, so is that a good price for one?

>>33349414
Yeah I figured that much after looking it up some more. I might still pick it up on its own merits if the price is good just because it was nice.

If your picture is representative of the gun's condition throughout, you got a pretty good deal if you walked away with an Elite and 4 mags for $700 out the door.

This. He didn't pay much more than I did for my 92FS with two mags.

>>33349307
Price isn't a huge concern. Used is fine if it's not all scratched up and beat to shit. I think the Beretta is a better deal in terms of price, I've seen the police specials for around $500 with three mags so I guess I'll get one first. Thanks.

It uses the standard locking block. The Brigadier slide just adds more mass around the slide and locking block are which does give the slide a bit more strength and lowers the velocity when cycling to handle hotter ammo better.

>>33349657
But isn't the locking block still a weak point?

No, the locking block on a 92FS is not a weak point. The current third generation locking blocks are good for like 10-15k rounds, and they are a $20 part that can be replaced without a gunsmith.

Any idea when the army's going to start selling off it's surplus M9's?

>>33349787
dude, I'm a CZ guy too and I hate when I see others act like this.

>>33350082
Not for a few years at least.

They'll be absolute garbage anyway. Basically a parts gun, because they'll be so worn out they wont be worth buying as a functional firearm.

I'm looking at the M9A3. I've heard some off-handed talk and read a bit about it, but does anyone have one or experience shooting one?

Yeah, no.

96A1 was my first handgun. I've left her bone stock, though. No pics on this PC.
