A local FFL has a older stainess Italian 92FS...but he wants $650 ... is he on crack or am I missing something here?+


I really like the pistol...its in about 98% condition w/case & 2 SS mags...what's it really worth???

I sold one just like that for $450.

Mags by themselves are worth $50-60 if they're SS.

As for the gun, I'd say in the low $500's, max. I bought a used Inox eye-talian & one SS mag & one blued about 6 months ago for just a bit over $500.

Either keep looking or lay the cash down on the counter & make him say "no", IMO.

Rght now that is an average price might even be good if it is in excellent condition. Those SS mags are selling for $70+ I bought one recently that was NIB never fired made in 93 still had the factory grease all over it for $775 shipped it came with 4 SS mags but 2 were a little used so I parted with them I listed them on Berettaforum.net at 90% condition for $60 shipped and within 2 hrs. they were sold. If you don't want it get me the contact info for the shop I might buy it. I actually have another on the way that comes with 2 SS mags that I got for $480 shipped don't know the condition yet but the pics looked good.


After I cleaned most of the grease off the outside. You can see some still by the takedown lever.



A pic of the mags the 2 in the middle are the ones I sold.

That is what this one looks like except yours is a bit nicer.  The one I saw has 2 SS PB "Made in Italy" mags just like the ones pictured.

As stated if you want it offer a little less but you would not be doing bad at all if you paid full price IMO. If you don't want it shoot me an email if I don't get it I know someone that will.

I called my shop and had him put aside a 92 stainless for me,it has some pachmayr grips-which I found I HATE,but he has some issue grips so I told him to put them on and keep the pachmayrs,price is $650 same as what you saw.

So a few weeks and I'll be a Beretta owner

Welcome to the INOX club!
I recently bought a set of Horned Lizard grips for my 92fs.
They are a micarta product from Larry Davidson.

Nice grips,I'm looking hard at the aluminum grips Hogue has but I'm wondering how thick they are-if it's thicker then the issue grips forget it,but if it's the same I'll probably get some later on.

I do believe they are just a slight hair thinner that the black grips.

I ordered a set for my Cougar this morning.
