  • Merry Christmas to me...INOX 92FS

    Had some Cabela's gift cards in my pocket, so I went there today. They had a new Beretta 92FS in INOX, which has been on my want list for some time, so I bought it.

    Pick it up Saturday...pics and range report to follow...

    Merry Christmas...

      Nice! Would that be for carry or for the range?

      Think if I were to get another pistol it'd be a 1911 in 9mm.

        Definable a range gun...I've got two 1911s already...Hoping to pick up a 1911 in .38 Super soon, though...

          I love my 92FS inox and bet you will too. The triggers are amazing, and recoil is smooth and controllable. Mine is as accurate as the Colt Combat Elite 1911 I loved until I bought the 92.

              I'll echo ScottM. I have a 92fs vertec inox that is one of the softest shooting pistols I own. "Slick as glass" action and as accurate as can be. On top of being a great gun it is also beautiful. You'll love it.

              Judging by today's left wing, looks like Senator Joe McCarthy was right after all.

                  You made a real good choice IMHO...............I've had 3 of them............I like the 96 better.............................you can't beat em for the way they feel, work, disassemble. The first time I racked the slide on one, I was sold.

                    Here ya go...still dirty from the range. All stock for the moment, but I have new grips, an Elite II hammer, new hammer spring, Wilson Combat trigger, steel guide rod and a few INOX parts to replace most of the black plastic parts on order...

                      How did you like it? The only things I've done to mine is 2# heavier recoil spring........stainless guide rod..............grips and screws.............inox mag release, and I like mine on the right..............and painted my sights Testors white.

                        Excellent! Take pics after your modifications - I'd love to see how she turns out. BTW has anyone put hardwood grips on their 92? I like the grippiness of synthetic rubber (mine got Pachmeyers soon after I bought it), but Hogue's reddish Cocobolos are damned pretty against inox.

                          Love it. Shot it very well. As well as my 1911s, although the 1911s have better triggers. The double action trigger is hard to reach, that's why I have the Wilson trigger coming, as it moves the trigger a little rearward.

                          I've seen several with wood grips, both on GB and on the Beretta forum...they look very good. The ones I have coming are G10 grips in dark cherry color.

                            I haven't made a set of Beretta grips in a long time but most of the officers here were wearing my grips when we toted 96's.

                            They are a challenge to make for sure. Now that we got a few Beretta guys around here maybe if I find the time and desire I'll whittle out a set and offer em up.
