Beretta M9A1!!!
I intended on buying a Sig P220R ST, but couldn't find a decently priced one. Found this baby instead.

Then I bought the 20 round mag (which turned out to hold 23 actually!).

Nice, Now all you need are the 30 round mags. How do you like your M9? Does it have those Plastic supplement parts?

I have fired a couple of 92FS pistols and found them to be accurate and soft on recoil. Looks like you picked a winner.

An excellent pistol so long as your finger reaches the trigger comfortably.

Great pistol. You will likely enjoy the M9A1 a lot. However, I wouldn't give up on getting a Sig, though:cool:.

Nice gun, but should've gotten a 220ST! I have one in the mail as we speak, got it brand new (with new external extractor) for $835 with night sites.

how much do the mags for m9/92 cost? are they in the same price range as glock? i see certain beretta mags to be outrageously overpriced just like sig and h&k mags.

congratulation on a nice gun. i like the pic with the leather couch; the contrast is perfect. and you got a cardboard box, which indicates the gun is of tactical and combat prestige.

The Bren Ten came in a cardboard box too. Clearly marked with a rubber stamp. :supergrin:

Crap man. That's a good deal. There was a used P220ST at the SA gun show for like $795. It wasn't perfect either. Thats why I passed on the Sig.

Reaches great!

Nice, Now all you need are the 30 round mags. How do you like your M9? Does it have those Plastic supplement parts?

Yeah it's got some plastic in it. Guide rod for sure. I heard the triggers were plastic, mine doesn't look plastic but I'm not positive. Probably other plastic parts as well.
Where can I get some 30 round mags? Haha, I love the way M9s look with extended mags.

The 20 rnd mag I bought is an aftermarket mag. Not sure who makes it, but not Beretta. That being said I talked the lady down to $21 at the gun show. It also came with a sleeve for the bottom but I like the way it looks without it.


Thanks for all the compliments, I can't wait to go shoot this again!

AJC sportshop. Nice. They have the best prices at all of the shows. Just bought a stainless Ruger Single Six from them a couple weeks ago.

Wouldn't doubt it. My 20 round mag is the same brand and holds 23 rounds!

I traded my M9 and 150 bucks for a glock 20. I love the 20 more than I ever liked the M9, but I still miss it here and there. I carried mine for a short while, but gave up on it. They are definitely solid and reliable pistols. Enjoy.

The Beretta is a great pistol. I would probably choose a P226, but that's because I am now an official Sig junkie after having finally bought my first one. But, I have extremely fond memories of my 9mm 92fs and thought it was a superb weapon. The M9A1 is beautiful. Be proud of your purchase.
