I agree you are probably right, but I don't think that's why he's in the rain. I'm from up here in the NW. We either go out and play in the rain, or we don't go out very often. The only cure for claustrophobia is to go out...in the cold ass rain.The biggest gun lesson I've learned up here is from a NW hunting forum. "Wax your guns." I use a 1965 dated Win 94 for hunting. The worst receiver metal ever would surface rust in a day in the rain. I tore it down and waxed up everything after the oil, using toothbrushes to force it and then buff it everywhere. It works great. A surface wax job is part of all my routine blued gun cleaning now. Protects the metal and the wood. A better solution is stainless and plastic. lol

The Beretta 92FS/M9 is my favorite combat handgun of all time. It took me a while, but I finally realized that I actually prefer DA/SA pistols to striker fired pistols. My shooting skills have actually improved since moving back to the DA/SA platform after nearly two decades of using the Glock (and similar designs) almost exclusively. A DA/SA trigger may take more time to master, but when you have a really good DA/SA trigger like the Beretta, once you get it mastered you have something special.

One of the best, absolutely best videos on this subject!

[@Nullandvoid971]

Watching this is 2024 just feels different now

[@bobl2833]

I agree 6/19/24.

[@johnstewart7022]

Paul: Thanks for a very helpful training video. BTW: Your 92 shows why you have the skill with the pistol that you do - it's been carried and fired a LOT!

[@usptact]

Man, I've been shooting 92FS for so long... and I did it all wrong! Instant subscribe!

[@scareypete13]

When I was in the Navy myself and 2 of my fellow corpsmen from the ship went to the range. We had my 92fs, my Vlad had a Sigpro in 9mm and Henrique rented a Glock 17. All 3 of us scored the best with the 92fs. I've been to the range with civilian friends and they shoot as well or better with my 92fs compared to their own pistol.

[@aaamericanlocksmithincstev2789]

I really enjoy your videos. I'm a fan of the Berreta. I dry fire practice with snap caps every day and it does pay off at the range. The Beretta is from my experience a very accurate firearm. Keep up the good work!

[@tobydulanski3000]

Thank you Paul and crew. Always a pleasure to learn from your experience. I personally bought 2 Beretta pistols based on your teachings. They are excellent pistols. Thank you Mr. Paul Harrell for all that you have done for others. You will be greatly missed by many of us.

[@hckyplyr9285]

Excellent advice. Every time I watch I learn something. As a fan of the 92FS I really appreciate the advice. Thank you again for taking the time to make these.

[@fritzruttimann1517]

Thanks a lot for your advises regarding the trigger pull subject. Your hints are also valid for shooting my Walther P. 38 accurate.

[@chubbycatfish4573]

Of all the pistols I have owned (quite a few), I've been the most accurate with the Beretta 92FS. I love it.

[@richardjensen8351]

Paul, I carried a Beretta 96FS for 20 of my 30 plus years in Law Enforcement. I considered myself to be pretty proficient with it. Your 12 minute video put me to shame. Where have you been all my life. I cant wait to get to the range and work on my new M9 the way you are in this video. I also love your enthusiasm for the Beretta M9 /92's . Its been a 30 year love affair for me.

[@mattwalters6834]

I love the gas and smoke in the rain during the live ammo and dummy rounds sequence.

[@oneisnone7350]

I always feel like I learn something every time I watch your videos. Nice work!

[@RedcoatsReturn]

Brilliant! I now see eactly what you mean and will practice with my Beretta 92fs Centurian, inclusive snap caps at my next range visit. I do appreciate your very clear teaching methods and contribution to educating people like myself. Thanks!

[@somerandomchannelify]

I used the snap cap mixed with live ammo technique and my accuracy dramatically increased and I stopped anticipating the recoil. I referred this video to my friend as well as I’m stressing that practice with carry guns is paramount. Pretty solid video!

[@thedamnedalpaca8159]

Just bought a 92S made in the late 70s from a vet. First time I shot it I shit you not I could barely get a bullet within a 8 inch group. I was genuinely flabbergasted that I was such a garbage shot with the pistol. So glad I found this video now I actually know what I was doing wrong. Much appreciated

[@agarlicsorbet6482]

The same good old basics. We put coins or Go stones on the rifle barrels and dry fired it again and again trying not to drop them, to practice the trigger pull. Wish we got the chance to do the same with the M9 but we didn't, so my accuracy was a dumpster fire. I am amazed by what you can do with the M9. Marvelous.

[@dan3510]

this guy is amazing! Very methodical and great dry sense of humor. I absolutely love the berretta m9. Subscribed.

[@waynocook53]

Paul, the reason I put you at the top of my list of video gun consultants was your pragmatic sense of humility. You communicate well, and that itself covers a multitude of presentation sins which a ton of KZbinrs are guilty of. In fact, there are only three of you whose advise really is worth a damn...and with the except of our own preferences, I imagine you'd agree with at least one of my picks. As usual, love your channel, hang in there, Paul!

[@waynocook53]

Holy cow! Are you standing in pouring rain to do this video?! My god, give yourself a break, brother!

[@mynameislegion7144]

That's typical of ex-military guys (not stopping for bad weather). No head cover either. Hardcore and it makes for more realistic training.

[@PaulHarrell]

I Filmed this at the coast. If I waited for the rain to stop I'd never get anything done.

[@Retired_Retard]

This is a gem I have missed! Over the years I have owned several 92F and 92SB berettas. This is the first time I have seen anybody explain how to shoot the damn things. I am old school and carried 1911's in the service. I think I might give the 92F a second chance. I will take it to the range and we will see. Thanks for an informative video.

[@erniewalden3050]

Well ? Did you like it ? Or end up in safe collecting dust ? Hahah

[@jorgeherrera1074]

I’m super new to firearms. I bought my first gun ever 1 month ago at age 29. I have my intro to handguns course this weekend. I’ve been watching videos to get some knowledge beforehand. This is by far the best video I’ve seen with so many little tidbits that are gems of knowledge. Thank you so much!

[@stephenfrederick3092]

Without a doubt this is the best video by far for shooting the Beretta! I have struggled mightily with my 92A1 to get comparable accuracy from it that I get from the .357 revolvers, I know the gun is capable of the accuracy it's the loose nut behind the trigger that is the problem. Part of the problem is treating it as I do the rest of my sidearms instead of a different weapon that needs to be practiced differently. I used to carry my Hi-power in condition 1, cocked and locked, one of the reasons I don't use it as a carry weapon anymore. I spent decades training with it and as single action only sidearm I was in the "throw away" the first round camp, that's going to be changing. I especially love the snap cap round drills, I have practiced that extensively with my .357s and never considered it with the Beretta, I will be including that in all of my 9mm drills. Thanks a bunch for the tips, really appreciate you taking the time to do it!!

[@zuperbal]

The best free advice to date! Excellent!

[@Sherpaful]

No, he's not giving dating advice here.

[@jamessnider6780]

When I first joined the PD as a reserve I carried the Beretta 92FS. I found it to be very accurate . . . much more so than I was/am. Is it large and heavy? Yes it is, I dubbed it a boat anchor. However, that long barrel's accuracy and the quality of the weapon made it a law enforcement and military staple for years. I'm also anxiously awaiting "Shaboom Shaboom" to hit on Spotify. Great work Paul, thanks for the practical common sense videos and fundamental demonstrations.

[@robertgantry2118]

"Boat anchor"... HAHAHA! Good one!

[@burnyburnoutze2nd]

Not just any boat anchor, an Italian boat anchor lol I use mine in informal IDPA practice with fellow club members and they always call my 92fs that.

[@harjutapa]

"I don't have nearly enough facial hair or tattoos for that." I'm watching all these videos after hearing about the whole Caleb thing, and that burn is retroactively perfect.

[@harjutapa]

(yes, I'm well aware Paul wasn't burning anyone in particular with it, but it fits so well)

[@tonyincs]

An ex-ABN Ranger/SF soldier (who had only one arm) taught me this acronym for when shooting the M9 as well as other firearms: Breath Relax Aim Slack Shoot BRASS. Of course there is a little more to each line in as far as technique, but you get the point. Great teacher, just like our man Paul here!

[@ThePheonix21390]

I'm gonna remember this

[@DavidPasco1]

Thank you Paul. I just purchased an M9 for my son. Your wisdom is greatly appreciated. ☮
