I have just bought one of these and I used it for the first time on Sunday. I absolutely love it!

[@paulowens6838]

Just got mine today! WOW what a good looking gun! Hopefully she shoots as good as she looks.

B725 Pro Sport vs Beretta 692 Black Edition, what is your opinion?

[@rwolfhaus1234]

I could understand him much better in this video. Speaking much slower. Thank you for the overview.

[@lesthunnerlesthunner5218]

Such a nice revue ! Thanks for your good job ! Keep on going ! ;-)

[@tgsoutdoors]

Les Thunner Les Thunner glad you enjoyed it. Any requests?

[@tomstoney111]

Love it! Tossing up between the 692 and the Blaser F3 any chance on a review of The F3?

[@geraldswain3259]

Excellent revue by the way, keep up the good work!. Regards.

[@tgsoutdoors]

Thanks Gerald

[@davidmclean8423]

Yep... gorgeous... want one!

[@tgsoutdoors]

want us to source it for you?

[@davidmclean8423]

The Gun Shop If you can fund 50% of the cost too... then yeah! Keep up the good vids chaps

[@ouniriadh9028]

Hi, I am really big fan of your channel. Thank you for the great videos. I have one question about 692 black, does the color rub off on the receiver and barrels ? Because i like a gun that keeps its looks for a long time.

[@markfaust460]

What are you saying at 8:18?? "Great patterns, real low lead deformation, however better to use BLAH BLAH"???? Better to use what? I'm quite curious.

[@travisautosaccidentrepairc413]

Been looking at a late 682 gold e but I picked one of these up in a local shop and it just felt so good it’s kinda put a spanner in the works for me on getting a gold e what’s your thoughts on the 2 guns having shot them both?

[@rustybunn4154]

Another cracking review mate, I love my Miroku mk70 and am in the market for a new sporter. How would you compare this to a Browning pro sport and what way would you go as a fellow browning / Miroku fan?

[@randomworld1]

Another quality video guys.

[@jamesc6137]

going to school on your vids. This will be my next 12

[@bsmith8950]

Fingernails could do with attention before you make a video. However love this gun , had mine for 3 years now not the black version. Even after 3 years the break action is still quite stiff

[@davedunn7759]

Real men don’t get manicures. I think it adds legitimacy to his review in that he stopped doing some smith work to make a video for us. 👍🏻

[@bobcarter5223]

Just bought a new 692, (proofed in 2017) mine has non adjustable ejectors. I know some people have had problems with ejectors breaking so maybe they are getting rid of the adjustable design or maybe just saving money.

[@tgsoutdoors]

I think the idea of the adjustable ejectors was a good one, people however didn't like having to replace the o-rings, so they took a step back and decided to simplify and strengthen the base models.

[@bobcarter5223]

Thanks for the info, you have a great set of vids. Do you know if the little flat retaining pins on this simplified design are readily available to Joe Public? They are quite small and fiddly and ripe for losing when cleaning the ejectors.

[@tgsoutdoors]

I think they can be ordered by dealers, they are never quick with delivery of small parts, but i agree tey are worth having a spare of two of. Give us a shout if you want us to order you a set

[@bobcarter5223]

Thanks I will see what my local shop says. Keep doing what your doing, your vids are so helpful and informative.

[@Gwegybwel]

Is there any difference between the 692 black edition and the standard 692? aside from the obvious colour difference & carbon fibre rib? Keep up the great videos, thanks!

[@tgsoutdoors]

The handling is the main thing, as well as just having something a little more exclusive!

[@mehmetkayhan3221]

is it possible to shot skeet with this version of 692?

[@tgsoutdoors]

Yes indeed

[@LeftRightLeftUpper]

Great video... one piece of critisim is the focus on the video was going in and out a lot and making it frustrating to appreciate the gun, started to feel a bit nausious at times.

[@addictedtolife8384]

Looking into the 692 black or the Caesar guerini summit impact with the adjustable rib or fabarms qrr what would you recommend for a all in one shotgun ?

[@tgsoutdoors]

The QRR is a bargain but not in the same league as the others, the 692 black is genuinely gorgeous in every way and the summit impact is a monster of a gun. The 692 black would be the best all in one shotgun, the impact the best dtl gun and qrr the easiest on the pocket

[@pistoleer3572]

Got the QRR in 30in love it, and have just got rid of the Summit Impact for one of these in 32in! the Guerini is monster heavy for general sporting maybe the STL6 fabarm might be the middle ground

[@johnnyhonda4404]

I have been watching a lot of your videos. Keep up the good work! I was all set to go to my local gun shop to check one of these out until I Googled "Beretta 692 problems". Seems like a lot of complaints about ejectors, o-rings and the top tang screw. Have these issues been resolved?

[@tgsoutdoors]

Out of all of these issues the only one we have faced (and have had a lot of 69X through our hands) is the orings, which they resolved in the new ejector design.

[@johnnyhonda4404]

Thanks for the reply! I thought I read that the ejectors have been redesigned but couldn't confirm it yet. I will go check one out to see how it fits.

[@johnnyhonda4404]

From some of your other comments it seems like you guys feel that the Black Edition handles better than the standard 692. Can you elaborate on that a little bit?

[@matttessar8043]

how do you think this would be as a competition skeet/trap/sporting clays gun? looking for something for "all-around" use.

[@tgsoutdoors]

The 692 would be perfect for all of the above!

[@jeffreyelliott622]

Browning Citori CX Micro (Crossover) for all sport shooting games (2016) if you can find one !!!

[@adrianmorris4560]

Hi there guys I need a bit of advice, I have a Beretta A400 Light and a 690 black edition, I shoot about 50/50 Game and clays thought the year, the game i would be shooting would be mostly driven Snipe and Woodcock which i use my A400 for. I was in my local gun store yesterday and i was offered a deal for a new 692 silver action. I could trade in both my 690 and A400 for a straight swap on a new 692. I'm very temped as i love the 692. my question is would it be suitable as an all in one gun rather than having 2? I don't do a hugh amount of shooting in general so 1 gun may make more sense, i'm just worried about its weight and if it would look out of place in a rough shoot.

[@tgsoutdoors]

I'm sure it wouldn't look out of place, but i think it would have to be a 28" to have anywhere near enough speed for driven snipe or woodcock shooting. That might not then lend itself to competitive clay shooting

[@adrianmorris4560]

Thanks for the reply, I was thinking the same thing, I might just hold off for a while, my 690 has a 30” barrel and is an already impressive clay gun and the A400 just can’t be beating on a driven shoot, The offer was there and my impulse nearly got the better of me as I’ve always wanted a 692 and my mate in the gun store knows that. Thanks and keep up the great video’s, your reviews are very helpful.

[@oliash92]

hi guys i heard the carbon fibre ribs crack have you any experience with this?

[@HR1R32]

Is that the trap, skeet or sporting version?

[@tgsoutdoors]

Sporting

[@JohnSmith-mr6il]

i've got this gun, absolutely love it :) highly recommend!

[@tgsoutdoors]

They are lovely, just a shame about the price tag!

[@samh9492]

really good review guys. Just waiting on the blaser f16 review to come? Not many on KZbin! Thinking on buying one. Keep up the good work!

[@tgsoutdoors]

Sam Horne, should we manage to get hold of an F16 we will be sure to get a video out asap.

[@samh9492]

Hone

[@redcobra2004]

Is the rib pretty flat?? I love the gun but don't want a flat rib

[@tgsoutdoors]

Hi Wesley, the rib is actually ridged along the length of the rib. But isn't overly textured.

[@yuriys.6352]

Which will be better Caesar Guerini Invictus or Beretta 692?

[@tonyrobertson4633]

Yuriy S. I'm interested in this answer too.

[@mefirst1211]

Yuriy S. beretta 692, I shoot one , I had a Guerini , not some quality

[@borjastick]

I like the 692 very much. I do dtl here in France and would soon be looking to buy a second gun, not sure whether to go for the 692 or the Fabarm rs trap. It would be for secondary use and as a spare for my mate who comes over now and again. Any chance of cleaning your hands and nails before the next video?

[@tgsoutdoors]

Buy a 692, not that the fabarm is a bad gun, but it second class by comparison. Hands and nails could be cleaned, but the soap salts rust guns, so he keeps his hands oily until 5pm. Regards TGS

[@ozmoziz]

So if I understood correctly, compared to regular 692 the 692 black edition only offers nicer looks and a carbon fiber top rib which i presume reduces the weight a bit? As I'm looking for a competition trap gun the reduced weight actually is a bad thing for me personally. Hence my question is: is there any reason what so ever for me to pay the extra 700euros for the black edition gun vs regular Beretta 692 trap gun, as I'm not very interested in how the gun looks, rather how it performs? Do they handle the same I mean?

[@tgsoutdoors]

They handle very differently. Although you can add balancing weights to make either handle the same the 692 black and it’s lighter barrels seem to be much more controlled, making movements more repeatable

[@ozmoziz]

@@tgsoutdoors Ok, good to know. Thanks for the very fast response!

[@1valg]

How about quality issues with this model?

[@tgsoutdoors]

We haven't heard of anything too bad, the early 690's had a few black action finish issues but so far the 692 finish and mechanisms seem to be holding up just fine.

[@vastaiko]

Does 692 really broke in half as I see in some forums? They are so "sensitive"?

[@tgsoutdoors]

Not In our experience at all

[@bridgedown1]

who's focusing the camera Stevie fucking Wonder

[@tgsoutdoors]

Perhaps its your eyes?

[@Vairklym]

[@tgsoutdoors]

Gerald Swain got to love a bit of baiting

[@charleskittler4330]

Shooting is believing IMO shoot it first then buy the shotgun that shoots the best for you.

[@tgsoutdoors]

Charles Kittler. Perhaps this is true, but you can miss with the perfect gun if it doesn't fit. The honeymoon period also need to wear off to gain a true understanding of how you get on with the gun.

WHAT!?

[@tanyano9]

Wash your hands bud, not a very good impression........

[@tgsoutdoors]

Get in the workshop, get your hands dirty with some real gun dirt. You'll soon be proud of having dirty mits.

[@tanyano9]

I don't doubt that one bit, but Id make sure my hands where presentable prior to doing a customer focused video......

[@tgsoutdoors]

Can you use a phosphor bronze as a nail brush?

[@tanyano9]

Use what ever it takes......

[@tgsoutdoors]

clearly hand hygiene is high on your priority list. It isnt on Jonnys until 5pm, expect more dirt in the future.

[@matthewglerum]

Brace yourself Gun Shop, I'm going to give some very honest feedback. The review is random and meandering, and overly emphasizes that the appearance really "does it" for the reviewer. I don't mind a little of this, but it's probably 1/4 of the total commentary. Not much substance here, and the speaker is only marginally familiar with the gun. Terrible focus (next time, take it off auto-focus, set it on f 8.0, and re-shoot if it's crap.) The content could have easily been covered in less than 5 minutes. In the "pro" column, it shows an occasional view of the 692 Black. Hard to come by, so it's not a complete throw-away video, until someone else does a more polished job. Sorry

[@tgsoutdoors]

Appreciate the honesty, looking forward to your review.

[@hambonelouis]

Nice reply, Gun Shop :)

[@Parfashrek]

Oh have a day off mate, I personally thought the video was fantastic, really made me want to get my hands on one.
