New Beretta 92, the 92X

1 sweet beretta if the price is right i will have 1 all steel frame mounted safety been saving for a 9mm 1911 but I'm thinking this might come first
In the market space that it seems to be going for, I'd buy a CZ Shadow 2 any day of week long before this.. but at least they got rid of the slide mounted safety.

A couple of thoughts...
Why get such a chunky pistol when you can only put 10 rounds in it? It would be a lot more appealing outside of NY.
What the duce is a "Match" take down lever???

Hell here are the IDPA rules (oh weird so many people shoot this using Glock 34s but why would anyone own a G34 here in NY when you can only have 10 rounds)

Except very few here compete. They just get big guns become someone told them the sight radius myth as if an inch or less is going to be the difference between a hit or a miss at less than 15 something yards.
It's the same reason some get a Glock 17 instead of a 26 or 19. You know the whole Korean war frozen coat thing. Myths.

I know, right! That reading stuff is a real bitch.
From the ad...
Again... Why go for a big, chunky gun that many people complain is too big to shoot well, if you can only load it to 60% capacity?

You really think the reason Berettas aren't more popular in competition now is because they're too light?

Lmfao so a standard beretta 92 is 33.3oz unloaded. This 92x is going to weigh in at 47oz.
Oh but let's look at other guns that are known to be used in this category by the top shooters.
For instance
STI 2011 DVC L weighs in at 41oz
Or
A CZ TSO is at 47.5oz
But no you are right no one buys those guns for dedicated competition rigs because you can only load 10 rounds here in NY .....
Omg wait.. someone tell this guy how retarded he is for using what looks to be a big heavy gun in a competition but only has 10 rounds.

But a lot of people compete and you can try and argue your whole "I shoot a 26 better than people shoot a 17" all you want because I'll put money down that you have never shot any competitions just static at a bench

I'll put money down that you are correct that I haven't competed nor would I want to at this moment nor do I see the relevance in it if I did.
My point still stands. For self defense distances coming from the nightstand to across the room or maybe down a hallway, an inch or less more isn't going to make a difference in a big, heavy, doofy, gun with a neutered 10 Rd magazine.
And I'll bet that only a handful of people here with big guns complete. You could probably count them on 2 hands but they all buy them because nightstand guns are supposed to be oversized.
No one is talking about self defense, we are talking about a gun designed for competition for people who are competing, and matches are won or lost in tenths of a second

Kev was and I was agreeing with him for that point.
And a Benelli MP90S would make a terrible defensive pistol but that's not the intended purpose? So what?

I don't know the Benelli so I can't comment on that.

No need to. I'm taking about self defense myths.
Nice looking gun and a great video.
I carried the 92 when I was an MP. I only carried it because the Army told me to. It shot fine, never had an issue with mine. Heavy and big.
Aside from my duty gun, I carry small, self defense only. I train hard but I have never competed.
Again, nice looking gun,

Only you and kev are talking about self defense. For no reason.
It's a competition gun
Shit this gun has the same damn sight radius as a 92
Actually look at this real fast again... kev isnt even talking about sight radius, just you will only you are talking about a G26 once again when it comes to competition shooting and dedicated competition guns

Who said anything about a Glock 26 for competition?
No clue you brought up people only need a g26 or someshit
Marine Cpl
.577 Tyrannosaur.
Guess you should read then.
No I'm good I know it has something to do about how sight radius is a myth and g 26s and g 17 something something,
But here's the thing when it comes to guns in the class this one is in, sight radius does make a difference.
Bigger guns are always going to be easier to shoot, more sight radius is always going to make being more accurate easier. Sorry but that's just how it works

How did I know you were going to respond and then say what you said?
Anyway, ever watch that Fudd Hickock. He shoots smaller guns better. If you watch him, he'll even dangle his pinky off of bigger guns. On Glock forums, you'll see ever once in a while people saying that they can shoot their 26 better than their full sized. You'll also find many women with smaller hands can shoot smaller guns better. I think you should look into that rather than drilling holes into everything and attaching every dodad onto your guns to make them heavier in chance that you can handle them better. Or perhaps downgrade to a .380. Those kick less.

Hahahah bull shirt. Oh boy hickox? Tell me why anyone showing up to a legit competition is going to use the largest gun they can. Why do you think limited has size limits but open class doesn't?
Sorry will you can cry about all you want, a g34 size gun is easier to shoot than a g26
Hahaha and you are going to talk shit about me porting 1 of my guns and yet you got super fucking butt hurt that your Ruger range toy somehow doesnt work as a boogaloo gun lmfao.
What ever dude, I know I'm an ass on here a good bit of the time but you are delusional
I wonder if there will be a decocker only version? A non stainless version? I generally don't like shiny guns.
