what should I know about the Beretta 92S ?

>>35182965
it is shit

that you are considering it indicates that you are cheap

>>35182974

this desu senpai

heel mag release a shit

>>35182974
This

or even worse it indicates you're poor

>>35182965
hey martin

What's wrong with it?

>>35183002
it is a Beretta

>>35183002
this particular one has a heel release. As opposed to a browning thumb release. Or at least that's the reasonable version of it. I've alse read that it's a thumb release on the heel like an uzi.

>>35182965
buy one if you can find one cheap

>>35182965
Generally old Eurotrash police surplus. They'll probably run fine but they're gonna be rough.

Heel release is a big minus to me.

>>35183009
Gaylord.

>>35183291
Basically, they're only worth it if cheap, otherwise get a brand new 92A1

It is a neat collector's gun. It is a bad choice if you intend to try to take advantage of the Beretta aftermarket mods.

Make sure what you buy matches your purpose.

Good grip
Trigger can be made good but doesn't come good.
Barrel is not always centered to slide, does not affect function. The barrel has its own rails separate from frame rails (because fuck if I know why)
Common complaints about them shooting low.
If you put a couple hundred dollars in aftermarket parts, it reall has a nice action.
Old design and heavy, sexy though.

-very large for a 9mm larger than some 1911
-I have seen Italian trade ins at Buds Gun Shop
that didn't work. Like any surplus gun I suggest
you buy it in person and get your pick of the lot.
-sights, good accuracy tiny sights, They take
some practice.

Not the best but far from the worst.
For $300 you'll likely never regret it.

If you want the beretta 92 experience, buy an Italian police surplus version for around 300$. Only difference is the mag release on the Italian is botttom of mag well.

IMO the the size and weight no longer justifies the capacity. Heavy AF. I carry one everyday on duty(not my choice). Get something polymer

>>35182965
It's a beretta thats worn a bit, cheaper, and has a heel release. That's all you need to know. There's not much to say other than that.

>>35186198
I own a cz and a beretta and a glock. What now?

>>35186373
I've never seen a used 92fs for less than 450.

>>35182965

Not many people know this but the locking block on these WILL eventually kaput after a few thousand rounds.

Not really a flaw more like a consumable part. Not a bad idea to have a backup to have in a drawer and forget about until that day comes.

>>35186533
You could probably get one for $400 or less on Armslist right now. Buds has them brand new for $469 with free shipping - or at least they did a few days ago, I don't know if that's changed.

>>35186447
I'm trying

>>35184891
Yeah, hadn't realized OP meant s as opposed to other variants rather than other brands etc.

>>35186533
Summit had a small batch of trades come through (sold out now) for $350 or $390 with Trijicon sights. GB has them for $385-400. Most go fast at those prices.

Fucking this. They're just way too mechanical in a clunky way. If you want a service pistol, get a Glock or a 1911 instead.

Can you try that again without sounding like an absolute retard?

>>35186773
>way too mechanical
>1911 instead

Unless you spend lots of schmeckles on one expect to tinker with it to keep it running. complete disassembly is something most 1911 owners have never done. Suggesting a complex design that originated with custom fitting because "less mechanical" makes zero fucking sense to me.

Bought one when they were like $250, sold it a month ago. The sights are just awful and can't be replaced, that was the main deal breaker for me. Add in the lack of compatibility with other 92 aftermarket and the awkward mag release and you're better off just saving a couple hundred more and getting a 92fs

>>35182965
+It's probably one of the best guns you can pick up for 300 dollars, far outpaces SR9E and SD9VE

+Many times they have only had a few rounds put through them

+Aftermarket because Beretta 92

+Already broken in so you're not going to freak out about using it and or getting some wear on it4

-Sights suck dick, painting the front sight with a white industrial marking paint pen off amazon alleviates most of the issue

-some stock grips are horrible and aftermarket is limited because of the heel release but good alternatives do exist and can be found even on ebay. It appears that there are two versions of the grips, some that are fully textured from the factory and some that are partially. Speaking from experience the partial is terrible.

+/- Can be in good shape or really rough shape depending on the order a retailer gets in. Do not buy a batch that they've been sitting on for a month. Wait keep an eye out for a fresh on and get in early.

If you want a first pistol or a Beretta 92 but don't want to pay alot, it's a fantastic deal. Anyone saying other wise is the same retard that will tell you you need a 490 dollar knife.

>>35186849
What's the proper sight picture on the 92S? I feel like I'm always a bit off no matter what I try

>>35186773
What the fuck are you even trying to complain about.

>Way too mechanical
Why, because it has a hammer? Big fucking deal. All of my striker pistol friends have complimented my 92FS.

>>35186773

Literally identical to any other 92, save for the heel release and front sight being part of the slide. I suggest applying paint to the sights with a toothpick to make them stand out better. Other than that, they're great guns. I got mine from Southern Ohio for $270, and it was in nearly flawless condition.
