Quoted: I have one and use it exclusively in competition. I absolutely love it. I shoot my 92G Elite II more than any other pistol I own. It's dead on accurate, failure-proof, and just overall badass.
If you have any other specific questions IM/email me.

Everyone has their own taste when it comes to firearms. Some like Glocks, some hate Glocks. Some like 1911s, some just don't "get it" when it comes to 1911s. For ME, and I speak only for myself, the Elite II is the ultimate full size handgun platform for the 9mm caliber. There is nothing that has a better trigger, less recoil, or is more accurate. The worksmanship exhibited in the construction of the one I have makes it well worth the extra money. It has never failed in any way through more than a thousand rounds. The sights are kind of small for combat, but excellent for competition, and this gun shoots EXACTLY to point of aim. From distances of 15 paces or less (say 7-10 yards away) I routinely put ten shots in one ragged hole, standing. Awhile back I was goofing off with a friend of mine who had hung his target on the backstop with two clothespins. We were trash talking each other and just to be an ass I shot the clothespins from about 15 yards away with two fairly quick shots, and his target fell to the ground before he could get a shot off. Of course I was just messing with him and we cleared our guns and I put it back up, but the point is the gun is THAT accurate for me. In IDPA or informal competitions I can fire this gun faster than any other, and a double-tap to the chest or head will leave two holes spaced about an inch apart, one slightly higher than the other.
Is it worth the extra money over a standard 92FS? Abso-friggin-lutely. I have only one complaint, and that is that the extended mag release button came off somehow and I can't find it, so one of these days I need to order a new one from Langdon Tactical Tech.
