I want one of these in a bad way. I had no idea Beretta came out with an A4, I follow them on Farcebook and saw a post about it. I love the fact that it has the decocker and not the standard safety. Even though I have a pistol can I’m glad it doesn’t have those huge suppressor height sights. I would end up putting an optic  on it anyway.

I was thinking of sending the slide on my wilson combat beretta to get milled, but between the cost of that and buying a threaded barrel, I might as well just get one of these instead. That's my rationale anyways.

I cannot believe Beretta dropped the ball on those optic plates... They're too thick and too tall. I've never cared personally if an optic sits "high" perse, but they could have done a much better job. People are also apparently having issues depending on which optic they're running and causing malfunctions due to being so close to the ejection port and ejection pattern.

Langdon's solution IS the way, but I'm assuming it's too cost prohibitive to have gone a route like that, also considering its either an RDO or not, no option like these, and I'm pretty sure LTT patented their solution and Beretta is SOL on that one.

Either way, wish they had gone back to the drawing board instead of releasing this...

I literally dont think there is any difference between their optic plate height and just running one of the old, dovetailed mounts that Beretta owners are so used to.

The Beretta slide doesn't have a ton of meat to cut into to mount an optic. They are pretty low profile to begin with.

I also find it odd that in addition to the 10 round model they offer a 15 and 18 round version; if there's an 18 round version available then who wants the 15? They also seem to want $100 more for the 18 round version.

I did see a video that claims Holosuns won’t work. Apparently Holosun uses the same footprint, but different depths, so the screws won’t work in the Beretta plates. Not sure if it’s valid or not, but worth calling out.

Really boils down to what you want. I like striker fire for carry guns but prefer DA/SA for service sized guns. I think the 92 shoots better than the G17, but the G17 has a better aftermarket and is a bit simpler of a design.

Myself however, I’d walk past a crate of G17’s for a good 92.

There’s not really a ball to drop.  The slide is curved on the top plus has the FPB moving up and down.

There’s limited room if you go forward of the rear sight dovetail.

The optic needs a flat plate to mount on.

It takes fairly extensive more extensive work to make it even a mm or two shorter.

Some designs / models are just much more amenable for mounting optics to the slide.

Some guns are, say, like a Toyota 4Runner or FJ Cruiser or X-Terra and very easy to put a rack/tent on the roof.
The 92 series is more like a Wrangler.  It’s a little more complicated setting up a rack/putting a tent on the roof.

They still make 10 round versions for legacy ban states.
There are some states that have come out with 15 round pistol mag limits, I believe Colorado and Vermont at this time, but more we’re trying.
So Beretta makes 15 round options.

It’s also worth noting that the IDPA nationals were just won with a factory RDO gun, higher mount and all. Not to mention people have been running even higher mounts in open on 2011’s for decades now. Most of the complaints are purely aesthetic, they just don’t want to admit it.

Hey Olds! Never get tired watching your IG videos, but I miss the Baer content…

The complaint people have with the high mount is definitely more about cosmetics than operability. I just wish Beretta could have been a bit more innovative, as Langdon has been. There have also been reported issues of certain dots obstructing ejection pattern and causing malfunctions due to how far forward the plate sits.

It’s not terrible, I personally just think a company of their stature could have done a better job. I’ll still have one eventually, the LTTs take up most of my time now though.

Also I would argue though that the higher dot adds to perceived recoil due to the higher reciprocating weight/mass. Now will it makes a perceivable difference to me in competition? Probably not, nor did it for JJ Racaza.

So, In reality it’s probably not a legit gripe to have…I just find it -not as good- as Langdons solution. But as stated above, his is a dedicated RDO, and can’t run it without a dot without their being a big hole there.

Oh I deleted my Instagram and only ever did photos of my own gear so probably wasn’t me.

I really do agree though. I’d have rather had a thinner steel plate really, and I hope someone comes to market with one. I can’t blame someone for choosing one over the other on the LTT versus Beretta solutions. I chose the Beretta solution just to retain factory parts, but chances of those parts breaking either way are probably zero.

Getting a dot for my RDO is a bit down my priority list so I won’t even be able to offer my direct opinion. I can say using a C-More on a dust cover mount on a Para decades ago I had no trouble compared to the modern approaches.

Well, there is some minor complication to knowing offsets at some basic ranges.

But to be honest, even a decade ago the small target areas surrounded by no shoots, real far small shots, etc. we’re nothing like they are now.

I have one of my 92 series with an optic.



Sure, there are some slight advantages to lower.






But I doubt 90plus percent of us could really realize them.

Somebody that wins a national level production, SSP, CCO type event -
In all reality-
Probably could have done it with a CZ OR a Beretta, a Glock or a SIg, etc.

Hell, a Canik as well.

For those of you who have received your optic plates if you have a Trijicon which plate did you receive there's one with Item# EUS03052 and another with Item# E03052 please confirm which one you received thanks. At this point Im willing to pay the $30 for the plate tired of waiting on the code.

It's on my to buy list. I'm only concerned about how high the red dot sits. Back up irons aren't really going to be a thing on this one.

Granted I can't say I ever use my irons on my current pistols.

Personally I'd like a px4 milled for a red dot as well. I know Langdon makes them I just haven't ordered one or found one.

Ive had no issues so far machining is clean no QC issues . My gun only shipped with 1 15rd magazine and 2 10 round mags it had a card inside the box saying they would send me a code for the other 2 15 round mags when they became available in March.

This is a November 2021 production 92X RDO. It hasn’t been wiped down so any smudges you see are on me. Considering you can see towel lint on my counter but not any machine marks, I’d say it looks pretty damn good.





The only flaw I’ve found on mine is whatever finish they use doesn’t stick the the chrome lining on the crown very well, or they just didn’t know where to stop the chrome. They should have taped it up, but won’t matter after a couple range sessions. (Sorry for the bad resolution, had to zoom in).

FYI Just talked to Beretta CS again. The RDO plate code is up to "mid November" registration dates. They claim to have another batch coming in "this week or next week."

Just checked their website, the RDO Plate for Trijicon cut is totally gone now. Wonder if its getting changed.

My complaints aren't cosmetic at all. I want co witnessed sights. I don't don't they make backup sights high enough to clear these plates. I've had quality, expensive equipment fail. I want a secondary system personally. Maybe Dawson Precison cam make a custom set. Installed on the gun, I don't think the plates look too bad.

Didn’t even think of that, surprised they didn’t consider this either. Personally I don’t run BUIS on my RDS pistols, whether they be for competition or CCW use.

However I get that’s a personal decision and I’m in the minority there. Another reason to go LTT.
