About the Gun

The Beretta 92 pistol evolved from earlier Beretta designs, most notably the M1922 and M1951. From the M1922 comes the open slide design, while the alloy frame and locking block barrel were first used in the M1951. The grip angle and the front sight integrated with the slide were also common to earlier Beretta pistols. The Beretta 92 first appeared in 1975 and was designed by Carlo Beretta, Giuseppe Mazzetti and Vittorio Valle, all experienced firearms designers on the Beretta design team.

About the Cartridge

This cartridge was introduced along with the Luger semi-automatic pistol. The pistol and cartridge was first adopted by the German Navy in 1904 and then by the German Army in 1908. This cartridge has since been adopted by the military of practically every non-Communist power. It has become the most popular and widely-used handgun cartridge in the world. Performance wise, the 9 mm cartridge has somewhat more power than the .38 Special but falls well short of the .357 Magnum.

Beretta Model 92FS
By MikeB-21 on 29 May 2020
Great overall gun, totally infallible and will eat & digest any 9x19 ammo from any manufacturer. Bullets can be FMJ, JHP, LSWC, Quality handloads, etc., expensive pistol but totally dependable in any adverse condition. Never had FTF, no Stovepipes, no ejection problems were ever encountered. Dropped in mud, quickly cleaned off as best possible with free hand, pointed barrel downward, shook & drained as best possible, continued shooting with same mag. High capacity mags never falter either. You can be assured, if you do your part, this gun will ALWAYS do its part, and you’ll make it home in one piece. MikeB.
