Analysis

Beretta cataloged the full-size 96 Inox as the stainless companion to the Bruniton 96. Code J960500 listed at $795 in the mid-2000s. The lockwork is the FS-pattern slide safety/decock lever. Regular production closed with the rest of the non-A1 96 line. Used boxed examples sit a step above a Bruniton 96 in value.
