I've got a 92fs. Fine gun. I don't like the long first trigger pull on double action and the gun is too thick for me to easily conceal, but otherwise it's a good gun. Be careful buying aftermarket mags. I made the mistake of buying cheapies and wasted money. If I were to do it over I would get used beretta hi caps and have less magazines, but ones that worked. My asian military also work well.

The 20 round USAs work pretty well for fun shooting if you get a chance to pick one up cheap. The gun is big enough that there is really no recoil. Goes through a lot of ammo very quickly, fun gun

The slide flying off thing was the result (I think based on gun rags, internet rumor and my not so hot memory) of Seals using REAL hot ammo, and I think they had silencers on the barrel, which may have contributed to the slide in the face problem. Still you'll probably end up with a FS, I think that's what most of them are.

anothergene- Is the "G" the double action only one? I'm not sure which is which. I wouldn't want a DA only one, yuck. One of my shooting buddies always cheats and handcocks it when we are shooting.

Thanks

Quoted: I think the "F" would most likely be an Italian made one, which is worth a little more, I'm not sure if they made an "F" in the US. If I had to do over, I would get the "G" model...with the decocker that springs back up after dropping the hammer, ready to shoot in DA mode.

I opted for the SS Taurus. I like the frame-mounted safety, and it's operation.

I'll admit it here. It's a keeper. The Uncle Mike's is the preferred grip(s) on the Beretta/Taurus. My Beretta's a rifle.
