Hello friends!
I had 92FS I picked up used years ago and despite really enjoying the gun I wound up trading it off. The thinking at the time was that I could always get another one later. Well, that day finally came and I picked up a brand new 92FS! I selected a regular Italian 92FS with the 15rd standard magazines, truly the most standard 92FS possible. The black composite grips it came with seemed perfectly functional but I think the natural rosewood grips I chose are a much more handsome complement to this Italian beauty.
I love the open slide and lately I've really started to favor fixed-sight weapons so I really like that too. Here's a photo of the 92FS next to my GP100 from my range trip this afternoon:
I was firing Blazer Brass 124gr 9mm rounds and this target shows my first magazine (which was aimed at the center target) at 10 yards, and then my second magazine slow-fired in single action mode aimed at the 7 from the 7-ring just below the "neck" of the target. Those three holes are a full 15 rounds! I think I accidentally started aiming at my first hole instead of the 7 and that's why I have a second pattern on the same string. I guess it shoots a little bit high to the right but that's okay, I'll drift the rear sight ever so slightly and just be aware of the small elevation compensation that is necessary.
And then here is one last target firing two magazines somewhat rapidly. I had about 2-3 seconds per shot for my cadence and I had the DA trigger for the first shot of each magazine (I did not do a speed reload drill and instead simply started firing from hammer-down on each magazine)
I must say I am glad I have another Beretta and I am extremely pleased with the accuracy and function of this weapon. I got through 150 rounds without a single malfunction. The gun came pretty wet from the factory so I felt confident firing it straight out of the box, and what you're seeing are the results. Really can't say enough good things about Beretta at the moment, and I just love how those nice dark natural rosewood grips look against the bruniton finish!
