I shoot guns because I like shooting guns and I buy guns because I like guns and want to own them because I think they’re cool and interesting. Not every purchase has to be made to gain le unfair tactical advantage
Levi Collins
Any quality polymer handgun is just as reliable if not more reliable than muh meddle gun in the year 2019. There is literally no advantage in having a heavy metal piece of shit and are pleanty of disadvantages
It's a pistol 99% of the time it does not matter at all.
Nathaniel Richardson
I'd rather have a reminder to read the owners manual before use than front side serrations. You know, at least that has even the smallest bit of relevance.
Nicholas Johnson
Was thinking about getting one as my first real gun purchase. Is this reasonable?
Logan Torres
Better trigger than any striker trash
Thomas Ward
This.
Bentley Bell
Having worked on them and shot them I agree they are extremely overrated. They are rather accurate guns, I will give them that.
Also pic related is a classic example of the military forgetting that less is more.
>let's replace the classic comfy flap holster with a gigantic puzzle piece of shit that juts out like a massive tumor on your thigh. Oh you lost one of the several tiny clips or straps? Better order a new one for $120.
>Better order a new one for $120. it's pretty obvious why they did it
Levi Mitchell
Because it's not Tupperware trash
Nathan Allen
Your complaints were noted, although you'll have to get the LTT or Wilson Combat versions if you don't want to drop in the decocker and D springs yourself.
As for guys bitching about how the weight can only be a detriment, these are not for you.
>slide safety A literal non-issue. >no rail That's why they make railed versions. >no front slide serrations Okay. Personal preference. >shit trigger Subjective. A lot of people really like the trigger and even if you don't it can be improved with cheap and easy alterations. >shit grip angle Opinion. A lot of people think the 92 series feels great. >No backstrap checkering Depends on the model. >Looks like an emaciated crack whore Bad taste >weight So you're just a bitch?
Nathan Bailey
>Slide safety Literally never been an issue for me. If it is buy a pt92 >No rail Buy a 92A1 (I did) or a pt92 >No front slide serrations The entire front of the slide is a cut out that forms to the profile of the barrel. >Shit trigger Isn't this subjective?

And mecgar has a new follower/magazine that makes it 18 flush.
People like metal guns. I'm not even a Boomer, I bought my 92A1 in 2014 when I was 21. It's also easy to shoot, and a good suppressor host because it doesn't need a booster.
People like what you don't like. Get over yourself.

How does it feel to be taking it up the ass all the time OP?

My brother has one. I love it. It's almost as good as my m11a1.

You're a fag
Lincoln Ortiz
Need front slide serrations* I accidentally my sentence
Charles Adams
I like my Glock 17. I also really like my Beretta. I carry them both on occasion. They're both fun at the range. I prefer hammer fired guns.
Fanboy faggots like you are a disease. Learn to enjoy the pros and cons of different firearms, you gay fucking retard.
Leo Brooks
I love the glock 17 but I can understand why somebody would want their guns made out of metal instead of plastic
Brandon Smith
>saying this when the 84FS exists
Nathaniel Edwards
I don't own a berreta pistol so peak brainlet question here is there something wrong with safeties on the slide
Ryan Campbell
this
Austin Kelly
>Shit trigger. Ask me how I know you've never shot one.
Samuel Parker
slightly more difficult to engage/disenage, not really an issue if you carry 1 in the chamber decocked
Alexander Thomas
individuals with ham hands have been known to activate the safety when racking the slide, or their short little thumbs can't disengage the safety without shifting their grip.
its always adorable when the young and naive think they know more than the old and experienced when i was your age, i knew everything, too...
Anthony Gray
I like mine, willing to sell it
Leo Wright
What's the gun in the holster?
Charles Allen
Look into the Taurus version, less expensive and similar quality.
Aaron Ramirez
>weight I've held one that's nickel plated and it felt fine, and I'm a fucking manlet. Stop being weak, faggot.
Ryder Thompson
also it has a non-retarded safety location. I've been pleasantly surprised with how much I love my PT92
Jackson Perez
>there is literally no advantage in having a heavy metal peice of shit and there are plenty of disadvantages such as?
Justin Thompson
Not him, but rust could be a big one, if you are an idiot with Florida levels of humidity.
Wyatt Taylor
>on par with or lighter than competing alloy frame handguns >fantastic trigger >crazy reliable >inarguably one of the most iconic handguns and appreciated time over for its aesthetics >17 round flush fit magazines exist Glockfags talking about every gun that isn't a Glock: >REE WHY DOESNT IT WEIGH LESS THAN MY PLASTIC GUN >REEE WHY DOESNT IT HAVE A SHIT TON OF GRIP TEXTURING ON IT, IT CAN'T BE OPERATOR WITHOUT IT >REEEE WHY DOESNT IT LOOK LIKE A BROKEN CINDER BLOCK LIKE MY GUN DOES >REEE WHY ARE THE MAGAZINES NOT $5
>individuals with ham hands have been known to activate the safety when racking the slide, You have to try to do this and it only has a chance of occurring if you're power stroking. If you're the type of person who likes a shelf to rack on like on the VP9 or with a fancy Glock backplate then you can do the same thing with the safety. The slide release is in a great spot anyways so you can always use that.
I have a 92G so it's not an issue for me either way.
Joshua Ross
It's a sad day when the fucking Flips can manage to avoid that problem but Florida man cannot. Is there no end to his debauchery?
Cooper Harris
Taking the bait but whatever. My 92a1 is my nightstand gun and with the Hogue grip it is absolute maximum comfy. OP confirmed for having S O I hands and probably also crossdresses.
this >bu-bu-bu my ounces are pounds shut the fuck up.
Andrew Johnson
oohhhhhhhhhhhhh
Jaxson Stewart
he went there!
Jace Evans
Truly the best Beretta.
Joshua Morgan
>No rail >No front slide serrations >Backstrap checkering Shit tier larping faggot detected. Calling a reliable steel gun a crackwhore when it's obvious the glock would take that cake with it's shit polymer frame
Connor Jenkins
I’m picking up a great condition A1 for $400. Am I overpaying?
Because it looks cool and happens to actually work without exploding.
Joseph Mitchell
Op has probably never heard of any of these guns except maybe the 1911
Chase Howard
Open the Taurus pt92 and I fucking love it this thing is accurate as all fuckin hell. Why don’t you use one of those wonderful glocks to go fuck yourself faggot
Liam Butler
I fired my pal's 92fs customized into an actual samurai edge and its pretty neat. The weight plus recoil felt pretty good. Gun is still a gun as long it can swiss cheese an unfortunate nigger. Right now pal of mine wants to get a 96 parts so he can fire fowty s&w but i told him good finding those parts.
Landon Bennett
I have one. Great gun, despite a mysterious spring of some sorts falling out. But it doesn't seem to be affecting anything.
Nathan Perry
>Be OP >Be manlet faggot who has a hard time holding up more than 1 lbs for any length of time >Go on Jow Forums to shit on one if the best full sized 9mm handguns available >Rattle off a bunch of subjective garbage as if your opinion is relevant >Seriously implying polymer handguns can ever come close to the build quality and feel of a metal firearm
Yeah nah, you're a cunt. The M92FS is a fantastic gun if you're not a weak bitch.
Well you're obviously a nigger because you have no idea what a good gun looks like
Ryan Williams
Bitches with tiny hands. No seriously. Their hands are too small to full palm the gun and use the same hand to flick the safety on/off with their thumb. It threatens whatever little masculinity they have.
Carson Sanchez
I put thicker wood grips on my m9 and it feels great. Its kinda humbling to know other people in this world cant even operate the thing with the skinnier stock grips.
Samuel James
>>Slide safety Get a g model or conversion kit.
>>No rail get a m9a1 or a3 or any of the models that have one?
>>No front slide serrations There's already front cocking grooves but also feel free to get one with front serrations?
>>Shit trigger Better than 90% of handguns on the market, smooth DA, crisp SA, decent reset
>>Shit grip angle Debatable.
>>No backstrap checkering Get one with backstrap checkering? Most come with it.
>>A FUCKING SLIDE MOUNTED SAFETY G model is the only way to go.
>>Looks like an emaciated crack whore ur mum
>>Weighs 34oz. 50% more than a Glock 17 Lighter than CZ 75, 1911, Sig p226
>>LMAO 15 round capacity despite weighing over 2 pounds It's not 1980 anymore gramps, 17 rounders are standard now. Mec-gar makes 100% reliable 18 round flush fit mags.
Sure I can brag about how my 50 dollar breaker bar can be a great hammer but thats misusing the tool, brainlet.
Parker Long
Until the plastic becomes brittle and it fails. Metal firearms are firearms you pass down to kids and grandkids.
Jaxon Murphy
>Metal firearms are firearms you pass down to kids and grandkids. Maybe something like an all steel 1911. But not some aluminum POS.
> The Beretta’s frame is aluminum and it simply does not have the service life and durability of a steel framed gun, or even the polymer frames of the Glock or HK-USP. Unlike those designs, the Beretta M9’s slide rides directly on aluminum frame rails rather than steel. > More modern designs are more durable. Many of them have been documented to have fired over 400,000 rounds, in comparison to the 92 receiver’s hoped for life of roughly only 40,000. - Larry Vickers
TL;DR: It's shit. If you want something that lasts, get a Glock, USP, or a 1911.
Jaxson Wilson
Change out the recoil spring every now and again and your Beretta/Sig/whatever will last well into 6 digits, cuntface.
Brody Martin
The power of hue monkey engineering.
Chase Ross
I wouldn’t buy a taurus simply because people will know you bought and use a Taurus and I think that’s a real factor
Evan Myers
It just fucking sucks. I love my Beretta, but I have to make a conscious effort to not touch it when charging the gun compared to my others which don't have that issue.
Isaiah Peterson
Absolutely horseshit. The aluminum alloy they use for the frame can definitely withstand more than 40k. The shit thats been in the military's armory since the 80's didn't just bend or shatter by 40k
Noah Bennett
>bring gun close to chest >cup hand over slide >rack slide with hand Wallah
Ayden Torres
I truly believe you're all making this shit up. I can use the fucking safety wings TO rack my slide and not engage it. I have owned and operated Berettas for years, including the military, and have never had not witnessed this "problem." I only ever heard of it on Jow Forums.
Brayden Wright
OP is once again a fag. Beretta has LITERALLY never once made a bad weapon design.
Jackson Morales
The phrase "OP is a faggot" could never be more true
Asher Price
You're not going to crack a glock's frame by hitting a person with it, no matter how hard you think your soi arms can swing.
Hudson Nguyen
In other words you are a whiny little bitch who has never owned a handgun?
I bought my 92f in 1989, and it my favorite handgun of all time, like it better than my glock.
