Beretta Nano Review - Ready for the Competition!

[@TheWannabecook]

I own this weapon and have now run about 1400 rounds without any problems and it is now my main concealed carry . Great pistol and very dependable

[@chaos311clarity]

The best thing i can tell you is to put all of the guns you are considering in your hands and see which fits best... thats the one you'll shoot best.

[@genogenogeno]

The cup thing is to hold all of your parts when you break the gun down, trigger, pins, etc.

[@chaos311clarity]

Thanks! I think the cup thing is just a spacer for the box.

[@daveharris598]

At least CHAOS has shot the NANO unlike other reviewers on you tube. Nice review! Thanks for being real in your review.

[@partriarch]

Nice video. I just bought a Nano, after firing one as a rental at my local gun store/range. I found that the Galco TUC286 IWB holster (made for a Glock 26, 27, and 33) fits quite well at a modest price. Also found that a Pachmayr No.4 Slip On Grip fits as if made for the Nano. It gives more "thickness" to the skinny single stack grip on the Nano, filling my hand better. I plan on getting the Trijicon night sights for it soon. Mine came with the 8 round.extended mag as a second magazine.

[@Mojoman57]

I changed the mag release to the left handed setup and found that I had a difficult time hitting it with my left thumb. I put it back in its right handed configuration and discovered it to be much easier to hit with the middle finger of my left hand. So much for the ambidexterity.

[@davevabch]

I love the Micro Pistols. And the Nano is my favorite. My first three months I ran 2500 rounds of every thing under the sun and all flawless. 115 gr. 125,147 etc. This gun is so mild to shoot. I love it. By the way, my report is 2018. The first run back in about 2011 or 2012 did have some extractions issues with 115 gr. That has long been corrected. This gun is all stainless steel, chassis, receiver and built solid as a rock. If anything it is over built. But so doggone MILD and great handling. I love it!! Thanks for the review!

[@pugilist102]

I have the nano and love it. It's a single stack that shoots like a standard pistol. It's heavier than the competition but that helps it's shootability. Try rapid firing an LC9, not gonna happen. This is probably my favorite gun in my arsenal at the moment.

[@blackdogxx]

Good, fast paced review. The lack of external slide release is a benefit for fast draw in a bad situation. No snags on clothes (Mexican carry fans, take note!). You can replace the sights with fiber or tritium ones for yourself! Talon grips in gritty or rubbery are available. It's a good gun and this guy presents it really well.

[@chaos311clarity]

haha no worries, glad you enjoy my vids!

[@basque96]

Hi Chaos, I just want to update you with the info about my nano. I have put 200 rounds on her this last week, and had zero malfunctions..!! Including Winchester and Seliier & Bellot. So, as right now, no hiccups with the last 300rds..!!

[@chaos311clarity]

Thanks man. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@JClark-zv3bl]

I'm a Beretta fan. I own 13 Berettas 22 32 380 9 40 45 from 60s to 2020. Wish they had a 9x18 83. But the Nano is a great deep conceal pistol.

[@primaryification]

I pick mine up tomorrow, can't wait to get it to the range.

[@theaustralianshooter]

nice video, well edited, covered all major points and just all round awesome. thanks for posting!

[@dugroz]

"Stop, person of interest! I have a firearm!!!" LOL!

[@BerettaCommunity]

Always awesome reviews!

[@chaos311clarity]

yes, they just released them at the beginning of this year. They're most likely tough to get a hold of though.

[@chaos311clarity]

I used mostly blazer brass and aluminum cased stuff, also a little remington and other various brands. Didn't have a single issue.

[@brazillianbully1095]

I spoke to a Beretta tech. He was saying that a new recoil spring is pretty hard. And I should use 124gr to brake it in. That would make the recoil spring looser. I've put another 150 rds and I didn't have any FTE's.

[@elblancobasura]

That's great that you ran the 127gr. +P+ Winchesters through it. It really didn't look too punishing either using them.

[@georgevalencia1713]

LOL you made my day.......I own the PX4 storm compact, and bought my wife the Nano. They are great guns. Thanks Chaos....................

[@AlbinVega1865]

Thanks man. I have had good luck with magtech. I will try your suggestions and see how it runs.

[@chaos311clarity]

i actually shot the m44 for the first time whilst at the no stars shoot in WV. it was pretty cool to see the fireballs.

[@chaos311clarity]

i think its a blackhawk number 8 OWB holster fits PERFECTLY

[@chaos311clarity]

glad you enjoyed what you've watched! I appreciate the support!

[@mtrejos45auto]

You have to deactivate the firing system by pressing the small pin near the handle. If you pull the trigger before disassembling the gun (in fact you already did) there is a risk of damaging the firing system.

[@alonewcompany]

been interested in this pistol. great video! thanks for the laughs! . LONG LIVE THE PEOPLE!!!

[@stoehr]

Good review. One thing I've yet to see in anybody's review of the nano though...is how it looks in the palm the hand. I'm 6'0". I'm trying to decide if I want something like this or a regular compact...or even a full sized. My main goal is home protection...not recreational target shooting, so once I know it's comfortable and works...I will go with it.

[@uglybug25]

i just bought one a week ago and it came with a 6 and an 8 round mag in the box.pretty kool.

[@ChromeFreak123]

Great video bro..., the thing I always liked about Beretta is they have always done their own thing,now that pistol looks like all the other small pocket size Glock look alikes. I dont know if I like it or not but it does come off as a copy of many other pistols already out. Just my opinion but you make a great review brother. : )

[@chaos311clarity]

yea it could definitely use a mag extension... i haven't heard anything about the 40 cal version yet. i dunno how much i would like that caliber in this gun.

[@amacro11]

Nice job got mine this week - fun to shoot and yes I agree accurate for a little gun!

[@chaos311clarity]

People do reviews without shooting the guns? LOL thats dumb. Thanks for watching and im glad you enjoyed it!

[@brazillianbully1095]

Hi Chaos and Nano fans, I'm curious about the FTE's on the Nanos. I have 450 rounds on mine, and had 4 or 5 FTE's. All with ammo range (not reload), I used all sort of ammo. Not all had malfunctions, just some. No problems with Self defense or 124. I love the Nano, and still trust it with 124/up JHP. I carry it everyday. Sometimes as primary, sometimes as back up. I'm just trying to figure out if I should send back to Beretta. Tks

[@tblkmon7240]

Me being a female, and a beginner, what is your opinion on selecting a first time hand gun? I'm leaning towards Beretta, but can't decide between the 9x4 compact, subcompact and the Nano. I'm a leftie with big hands like you and let me stress, this will be my first gun and i'll be taking it straight to the range for fun and learning.

[@chaos311clarity]

I am, in fact, a 311 fan. Glad you enjoyed the review, thanks for watching!

[@robertburleson5509]

Good job! Like your sense of humor! Just bought one for my daughter, can't wait to give it a try. I think its a great design!

[@chaos311clarity]

@THEIRISHVL97DIMIR good! haha i wasn't sure if that was a fat joke. thanks for the comment!

[@rwb1500]

I can dig it. Nice work. What would you compare the trigger to? I'd love to see you do a side by side with the Kahr if you could get your hands on one.

[@zoey1811954]

@Chaos311Clarity Just found your channel today! Love it! Great review of the Nano! Great information and good humor!👏👏👏 I subscribed!

[@chaos311clarity]

If you're only going to be using it for home protection and not carrying it, i would go for something full size. That way you get better round capacity and the control-ability of a larger firearm.

[@sailingmanuel]

Great review buddy!!

[@chaos311clarity]

Its a solid choice for sure.

[@chaos311clarity]

Thanks a lot man! I appreciate that! As far as accuracy goes, I would just recommend working on fundamentals and such. Being that its a smaller gun, its not going to be nearly as easy to control as the XDm and G21. Without seeing you shoot it, or your targets, its tough to give anymore advice really.

[@IraqiSniper107]

Excellent Video Review! I just purchased a Nano, it performs like a charm, Running Federal 115 +P+ BPLE in mine. Semper Fi

[@dcselwitz]

An excellent review - and I agree - I have the same pistol - LOVE it - what model holster is this in your video???

[@chaos311clarity]

@ChromeFreak123 i think its a market segment they hadn't touched on yet (small polymer frame pocket pistols) and this is a solid effort into hitting that market.

[@wiryone1]

My Nano shoots 100% with self defense ammo. I get occasional FTE shooting light 115gr ball ammo such as Winchester white box. 124 and 147gr ball shoots 100%.

[@antoniom.8965]

The end cracks me up!! 🤣🤣 SUBSCRIBED!! "Stop person of interest"

[@AlbinVega1865]

Any issues with FTE's? Particularly with the 115 gr FMJ? I have been having problems with mine with the Federal Champion 115 gr (which is pretty cheap). The Nano seems to like JHP's better. Just wondering what you used for ammo and what you might recommend? Thanks and I enjoy your videos!

[@illwill012]

I love my nano I had mine for about 18 months no fte and highly accurate

[@liveonlock2867]

5:53 Peter Griffin 😂

[@chaos311clarity]

awesome! glad you dig my stuff man. and the nano is definitely a step up from the Taurus.

[@imartez]

Great review! Love the gun comedy

[@uncleben03]

Great review as always, outstanding production quality!

[@1967cowboymedic]

pew pew!!!! lol........ bought one this week for the wife as her new CCW. Great little pistol.

[@ROKSTAR830]

Just got one last weekend love it.

[@WE2TECH]

taurus pt709 slim 9mm comparison would be excellent vid really liked this video dont watch many reviews but have been watching yours very well put together and VERY informative o and i have the taurus awesome gun watchin this vid showed me how close the guns are to each other and i think it would be a great match up but just my opinion keep up the great shooting long live the people

[@pigpaul]

still love it,any problems? and I thought I you need the decocker to disassemble?

[@deutscherjoel]

Did you test out IWB carrying? One thing I like about the Kel-Tec PF9 is the slanted rear end of the slide that keeps it from catching on clothing when drawing, and the squared-off slide on this one looks like it would get snagged pretty easily.

[@gunnwild1]

That's a sweet pistol. The first time I saw it was on FateofDestinee's channel and she loves it.. Lots of good reviews on it. Enjoy brother.

[@pierreaumonte8159]

informative video and I recently purchased the Nano..plenty of kick for a pocket pistol. question though..are those electronic earmuffs you're wearing if so what brand ?

[@chaos311clarity]

@TheWannabecook that's awesome, what kind of ammo are you carrying?

[@aenhitchcock]

fyi the reason why your +p rounds didnt produce a brighter flame/flash is because they use low flash powders suposedly

[@laxdrew9]

Good vid, good points, and pretty entertaining too!

[@chaos311clarity]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!

[@BarbershopHero]

Awesome and fun review. Subbed.

[@ninerjeep12]

Thats the only thing i could really come up with, thx man.

[@leftchicago]

Just got one of these. I've heard that is doesn't like anything under 124 grains. Any ideas?

[@davevabch]

That was back in 2012. Beretta changed the extractor and the gun eats anything and every thing.

[@chaos311clarity]

@rwb1500 it was very similar to a longer glock trigger pull. not bad but not great. kinda what you expect on a pocket gun of this design.

[@radarrunners]

Good solid review! You do a good job man. I love my Nano but I'm having accuracy issues with it. Any tips? I can shoot well with my G21, and XDm 9 so I don't think it's me.

[@navyman8903]

I will say, that I hate pocket pistols. I would never recommend them. But! I like how you do business, and I like the humor. So I will throw you a like. But I am going to stick with my Full size guns, or medium size compacts (USPC, HK45c, P30, Glock 19, ect)

[@chaos311clarity]

If i remember correctly, it was 115gr blazer brass.

[@ethereous]

"This is a 9mm, and I'm not afraid to use it!" /bam bam bam "...MYEH" Fucking. Subbed.

[@Camismaster]

I love my Nano, it's my CC of choice.

[@chaos311clarity]

My first reaction is to say that you're probably limp wristing it a little bit but its tough to say without seeing you shoot.

[@Ryknow420]

The nanos seem to like the 124gr or higher.. or at least hotter 115gr ammo. in all of my shooting the nano, i had 3 fte's with winchester white box 115gr. anything else i shot worked perfectly.

[@chaos311clarity]

@BerettaCommunity thank you! much appreciated!

[@chaos311clarity]

@TheDangerZone999 yeap, it was part of the deal with the shotgun :) they reached out to me and asked if i wanted to... of course i said yes haha

[@chaos311clarity]

@deutscherjoel i didn't have any issues with snagging but obviously that's something youd have to test with your clothing ya know?

[@chaos311clarity]

haha i still carry my HK45 so i can't fault you man! thanks for the like! much appreciated.

[@chaos311clarity]

@hownaml its similar in feel to other striker fired pistols, but a bit longer. i didnt mind it at all.

[@Cosmicblast77]

Nice video, the only thing that annoys me about the gun is the lawyer tags on its sides. Ruger has them too. Are they so paranoid about law suits that they feel its necessary to write on gun," read manual before operating gun, or gun will not op without mag. I would rather they be more concerned about aesthetics.

[@chaos311clarity]

thanks for watching! glad you dig it!

[@ryber3]

Just found your channel via theyankeemarshall and really like what I've seen so far. This is a great review of the Nano. My wife and I are looking for something to replace her Taurus TCP738 and this might be it. Cheers

[@MakoRam]

Good video. Thx for the good review

[@GlocKGanG]

What kind of ammo should I get for it ??

[@xcessive2008]

great vid man , got to lighten it up sometimes lol great job. I see your a hefty dude like myself, do you carry inside the waistband? thx again subscribed/like :)

[@stoehr]

Good point...thanks!

[@TheDangerZone999]

did you get this through a T&E Gun?

[@johnclark9527]

"Mahh" lol I have a nano and I love it. I get great shot placement it's easily concealable and I'm running hornady critical duty 135 gr

[@dlnyc007]

I enjoy Mine have had it for 1 year.

[@chaos311clarity]

@merrylt i love the sight idea, being able to do the swap at home with one tool is incredible.

[@Stazzo82]

Can I ask you, how much is long your index finger?

[@LTYFLY]

Do they make extended mags for this gun?

[@gordontrenchard8416]

Great review.

[@noobicore6859]

Good post and here's my humble opinion : The limit of caliber to size proportion has been reached. I have small hands yet I live with the fact that you need a minimum of size in a gun to comfortably handle point and accurately shoot a powerful caliber. I've found all of these mini guns ill suited for powerful calibers, an aberration of ergonomics and fraught with compromises. I'm hoping top manufacturers start investing serious funds in superior quality small guns with smaller calibers.

[@tinknocker104]

Nice. Looking to pick one up.
