My new Beretta M9 with wood grips

Joe Link · Mar 4, 2019

First thing I did when I turned 21 was take the NRA Basic Pistol course so I could get my CHL. One of the instructors had a Beretta 92FS he let me shoot, and I've been a fan ever since. For whatever reason I've never purchased one, there was always something one spot higher on the list. I even ordered a set of these wood grips last year, knowing that I'd eventually have one. It finally happened this week, I found a deal on a new M9 that I couldn't resist. People go back and forth on the 92FS vs the M9, and I was hesitant to order at first. Reading about the differences it seemed like personal preference with the slight edge to the 92FS, but one look at the pictures and I knew this 80's kid had to have that straight dust cover. This won't be used for anything serious, so chalk one up for nostalgia.

Not a Beretta guy, but that's stone cold sexy right there.

I'd buy one with wood grips just because the grips. I like that a lot.

Yep, very good looking pistol. I've got the 92FS Inox and really like it. I bought a Beretta M9-22 (not really made by Beretta but looks and feels like the M9) although I've not had a chance to shoot it yet. Good choice and I hope you find it shoots as well as it looks.

My first semi auto was a Beretta 96

I'm thinking I need a Wilson combat 92

NICE KIT!!

Welcome to the Beretta 92 club!!

When i was stationed in Germany I bought this Italian made (OG Leathal Weapon/Die Hard) 92F back in '88, and then promptly "unofficially" carried it all over Europe... what can I say, I'm a cheeky bastige.

I still have it, of course, LOL!

My second carry gun was the 96F... Bought a Glock 22 to replace it and was disappointed. That Beretta was so smooth and accurate with a wonderful trigger... Just so dang heavy.
