Looks like it. It doesn't have the right kind anyway. Silly Europeans... they make a nice handgun but still don't know beans about how to fight with one. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

One of the huge reasons some of them have been participating in Iraq and Afghanistan. They've all but lost the institutional knowledge necessary to a military. |

According to http://world.guns.ru/handguns/hg/it/beretta-92-e.html, the 92S was made between 1976 and 1981. Doesn't take newer mags. I was interested at first but I'll pass.

Pass. Was about to order then saw the DA only and mag release. Would have been a buy otherwise.

I think someone FUBARed the description. Those are not DAO. When the 92S was being produced DAO wasn't available. I guess it is possible they pulled the sear out of these to make them DAO, but that would be an easy fix to convert back to DA/SA.
The European style magazine release is more of an issue for me, although some of my Beretta mags do have that cut in addition to the American style cut. |

I was all over this, as I own a new 92FS, until I saw DAO. At 3 bills, the DAO wasn't a deal breaker. The stupid mag release is though. Exactly. |

View Quote I bought a 92S a couple of years ago. Saw it at a gun show and almost passed on it when the seller told me I would have to order mags online. Checked on the mags on my phone and saw them on Midway USA, Beretta factory mags for $16.99 that would work. Order three before I left the parking lot. Mine's not DAO, but it's a fine shooter and very nicely finished. Using the mag release is a little tricky at first, but I got used to it pretty quickly. I don't have bear paws for hands anyway, so the 92S setup might be better for me anyway. |

PW Arms needs a new way to put their import stamp on guns. Hideous.

Tried to buy one, but the ship to address won't let me go forward.
Thats why I like PSA: buyer, FFL, CC. DONE |

Palmetto has a batch for about the same price.

Phhheeeewwww, I almost got excited enough to whip out the credit card. Until I saw the stupid mag release and DAO. Household financial crisis avoided once again.

Cool. does this model have the 1000 round slide life expectancy, like the US military version ?
Because that would be a real bargain. Pistol that only cost 30 cents per round, that would be almost as cheap as ammo to feed it.

Looks like a good deal for a nice older Beretta. I have no use for one but that would be a good buy. A lot better that a Sigma or something in that price range.

If it is a true DAO....which I find weird because normally a 92D has a spur-less hammer that is flush with the rear end of the slide... then a "D" spring would help out immensely.
$300 for a pristine looking Beretta is not a bad deal at all... Make a good nightstand gun or center console gun for the car. EDIT: yeah, the magazine release button location sucks, but if the poop were to hit the fan, if you can't solve it with the first 15 rounds, you got bigger problems. |
