The Beretta 92 is basically a 1980 design. Folks with smaller hands or shorter fingers usually struggle shooting the Beretta 92/M9 because the gun is just too big for them. The circumference of the grip is large and the reach from the backstrap to the face of the trigger is L-O-N-G, as is the DA trigger stroke. I don't think Beretta makes them any more. Mine works really well, is not ammo sensitive, and I use it frequently. 22 conversion unit, which they called a "practice kit". I have heard that recent production Checkmate mags are fine, but I have no personal experience with that. (Mec-Gar is actually the sub-contractor that makes magazines for Beretta, Browning, and Sig) Some of the GI magazines purchased as replacements were made by Checkmate, and many of those magazines had functioning problems.

Replace the recoil spring every 3000 rnd or so and replace the locking block at 15,000 rnds or so and you should get good service out of a 92 series gun. I still have the gun, and shoot it occassionally.

I broke a locking block at about 18,000 rounds and cracked the frame at 35,000+.īeretta replaced the gun for free. I shot that gun a lot, and loaned it to a friend to use when going through the police academy. I carried a Beretta 92F as a cop from 1988 to 1997. It also looks like it would be possible to create a right-side grip scale that projects forward over the back of the forward portion of the trigger-bar to shield it completely from already remote chance of being snagged. If a user/owner were concerned about that possibility it could be virtually eliminated by further bevelling the back of the forward portion of the bar to make it even more snag-proof than it already is. That said, there's still a theoretical possibility that it could get snagged and set off the gun accidentally. I'm not convinced that it's a practical issue given the considerations described above as well as the combination of the ubiquity of the pistol with the absence of any reports of related incidents.

It required considerable effort-to the point that it was painful to apply the pressure necessary to get the hammer to drop. I had to put them down, hold them in place with one hand and push the trigger bar forward with my thumb.

I was able to get the cocked hammer to drop by directly manipulating the trigger bar on the two 92 pistols I have, but not while holding the guns in my hand. The back edge of the forward part of the trigger bar where the pressure needs to be applied, is also rounded, which makes it, in my opinion, very unlikely that a snag could catch the back of the bar and accidentally manipulate the bar to fire the gun. In addition, the only point that can be accessed that provides enough purchase to push the trigger bar in the direction required to fire the gun is somewhat shielded by the slide and grip and is completely shielded by the trigger finger when a proper grip (trigger-finger-alongside-the-frame) is taken on the gun by a right-handed shooter. The trigger bar is external and does allow the hammer to be dropped via direct manipulation of the bar, but it takes a pretty concerted effort to do so given the difficulty in getting a purchase on the bar to push it forward and the lack of leverage-leverage that would normally be provided by the trigger. Although it's not a common requirement, as an interesting aside, if you plan to use a suppressor, the locking block design/non-tilting barrel means you don't need a suppressor with a "booster".I was able to drop the hammer by manipulation of the external trigger bar without touching the trigger.Interesting I can't recall ever hearing that complaint before.

They're easy to install and a 3 piece replacement block kit including the newest generation locking block and a new recoil spring is available from Beretta USA for about $35. Some folks suggest preventively replacing the locking block every 20K-30K rounds. I've run into a few small-handed shooters who have trouble gripping it properly. The main problem I have with them is that I find I occasionally activate them when racking the slide.

I don't care much for slide mounted safeties-I tend to look for decock-only models of guns with slide mounted safeties.
