In 2017 the military of Oman selected the Beretta 92 as it's new handgun (replacing the old Browning Hi-Power). The order was for 10,000 guns, IIRC. It says a lot for the Beretta to win that award in a world full of polymer handguns. It beat out three or four other European competitors. Outstanding video, as always.

One reason Hollywood loves the Beretta 92 is they are very easy to be modified to reliably fire blanks without any differences on the outside. For a 9mm pistol to reliably cycle with blanks it basically needs to be converted to work as a straight blowback, which for the 92 just means not installing the locking block, for something like a glock you need a barrel that doesn't have a locking block which is more expensive and the Glock doesn't look right in close-ups, you need to swap out a deactivated prop gun with a blank firing pistol, this is a little obvious in some scenes. If you want the close up pistol shots, especially in slow motion for John Woo's films... you need the Beretta 92. Now I think later they worked around this problem so that blanks could fire even from pistols with their locking block intact, but in the 80s and 90s the 92 was the "star".

By far my favorite pistol. The only malfunctions I ever had with them has been with a batch of reloads I bought that were severely underpowered, and a few with my wife's 92fs that were caused by an aging surplus GI magazine. A phenomenal pistol that is just as legendary as the 1911.

Having been around for the conversion from M1911A1 to M9, I can say this: Yes, our M1911A1s were beat to hell, and the M1911 was ready to be retired as a platform. However, the M9 was a problematic handgun for a lot of Marines I served with. The recoil was much more manageable of course, but the M9 is a BIG handgun. Troops with smaller hands, especially Females and the younger guys had real problems grasping the pistol correctly, and the double action trigger was all but unreachable for some of them without thumb cocking the pistol. They would also have problems reaching the magazine release.

Nice overview of the 92 Series! A couple of years ago, my local Cabela's was selling a brand new 92A1 (Marine Corps Variant), for $599.99 It was the last one in stock. My wife knew I always wanted a 92 (especially the Marne Corps Variant, as I had been a Marine). She gave me the "Green Light" so to speak to buy it. I've always wanted one since Lethal Weapon and Diehard! The price was so good that even my regular local gun store that we do business with, and would usually price match, said they couldn't have beaten that price that I paid, and that I got a really good deal. I ended up sending it off to Wilson Combat and had it customized with their silicon trigger and a host of other enhancements. I now own the kind of firearm that is not only battle tested, handsome to behold (as the 92 Series are), and a gun you would want to hand down to your child as a legacy gun (though hopefully not for a few more decades!). I appreciate your detailed and insightful knowledge regarding small arms. Keep up the fine content!!!

I have a 92FS I bought in the mid 1990's I still carry around the rural property I live on. It has only ever failed me when I did night qualification for a security job after being up over 18 hours before I started shooting. I was not holding the grip right after shooting all day. Surprised there was no mention of the Argentinian Bursa company. Argentine adopted the 92S in the 1970's. The deal was the same as Brazil he mentioned. Company now trades as a private company called Bursa. I have a Bursa 380 Thunder. Looks just like a miniature 92FS. Manual of arms is the same. Take down is different of course because the barrel is fixed.

I'm from Hungary and whilst our gun culture is almost non-existent here, the 92 does have a tiny cult following (mostly from games and films). I've just ordered my first handgun, an M9A3 and I'm hoping it will arrive in 4-6 months fresh from Italy. It's a fantastic modern evolution to a legendary classic and I dare to say, it's still Beretta's best handgun (even beating the M9A4 and trading blows with the 92X Peformance). With this, I'm going to join the handful of Beretta handgun owners in the country and I'm fairly certain that I'll be one of the few Hungarian sport shooters who has an M9A3.

The Beretta 92F-series truly is the best metal 9mm out there. I’d say the CZ 75 B and BD models are nearly shoulder to shoulder with the 92F, but the Beretta has the edge. Next in my opinion is the Browning Hi Power, with Springfield’s SA-35 being the best Hi Power ever made and better than the original. Just my opinions as I own all of these guns. Today, I feel that the best overall combat down-n-dirty 9mm is the Glock 17 Gen 5 MOS. Hands down, it’s the winner for professional (LE/Military) use in the trenches. It ain’t pretty, it’s not the most accurate, and it doesn’t feel the best in one’s hands but, …it’s the toughest and most dependable. The Glock 22 (.40), Glock 31 (.357Sig), Glock 21 (.45) are all in the same category/class as the Glock 17-series.

Love the single action, not one malfunction. Even with the new magazines. Any pistol I've owned, you'd get a malfunction from brand new mags. Nothing crazy, just a misfeed. Not the 92. Solid pistol.

I'm a younger guy and started out shooting Glocks, for many years I was a Glock guy until I bought an M9A1, and I shot better with it off the bat than any Glock I had shot up until then. It was a no brainer for me. Sold my Glocks and invested into the 92 series "platform" which I now use to shoot competitively with. My Langdon LTT Elite is my EDC, duty, and competition gun. My only issue with them is how heavy they are compared to Glocks, relatively speaking of course. Because the Beretta 92 is still pretty lightweight at only 33oz, which is pretty light compared to most metal framed pistols which tip the scales at 40+ ounces. Also, people say the Berettas have monster grips but I just don't find this to be true and most actual shooters don't either. If anything they have somewhat of a smallish/compact grip compared to other pistols. Even more so when you put some ultra slim grips. Fits my hand better than a Glock 17 I'll tell you that much. I think the biggest hurdle for these guns for most people is the fact they're DA/SA. Like that Navy Seal you had on who said he just doesn't like DA/SA, despite the fact competitive shooters have mastered and even prefer DA/SA. These guns are still relevant because if I recall correctly JJ Recaza just recently won USPSA carry optics with an M9A4, and he's a pretty small stature guy with small hands. Don't let the myths of Berettas having huge grips deter you from using one of the sweetest shooting pistols ever made. Highly underrated firearm within the shooting community, even if it's overrated in media.

Nice collection! I was issued the M9 from 1987-1998. Loved it. I like my Girsan Turkish copy too. I notice the Girsan has a different locking block/slide cutout and wonder if that is another way of improving that part's service life? The Girsan copy has picked up some military and police contracts too. So far it seems to be as reliable as the Berettas I've had. Good guns (M1911, P35, CZ75, M92) get copied.

So, if I’m understanding this correctly, on regard to 9mm NATO ball ammo, even when loaded correctly with reduced powder compared to commercial Luger, gets higher pressure and higher velocity than commercial (1170-1200 fps). So that being the case, if reloading 9mm NATO cases, one should be careful and not load too high compared to what the 9mm Luger loading data shows in your manual because the cup sits higher than the shells the manual is recommending for Luger. And when doing so, staying well below the max load listed for Luger, you can duplicate 9mm NATO velocity. (Using a 9mm 124 gr FMJ and Power Pistol or AA7 powder)

I won two police “Top Gun” competitions with my 92FS duty sidearm, back in the day. For me, it was the perfect balance and form that made it an extension of my arm. Sorry I sold it, I now carry the 96 stainless, the added recoil changes the balance from the 92 and for me, doesn’t quite have the innate accuracy I had with the 92FS.

Great video as always Chris! I'm a bit surprised that you didn't include Langdon and his history with the Beretta 92. Obviously he drove the optics cut in the 92s among other innovations. I currently don't have a 92 in my collection and I really need to change that!

You should review the 92 XI. It’s awesome, my only complaint is it dosent come with a wraparound grip. I ordered a pair of G10 wraparounds made specifically for the XI from LOK grips.

Beretta 92's....solid handgun, a little spread out in the grip as far as controls go so the ergo's are effected by that if your someone with smaller mitts...other then that it's very well made and is reliable enough to go to Hell and back.

Why is there so little info out about the all steel 92? Not the inox, that still has the aluminum frame. They made an all steel gun at one point in the vertec frame, I believe. I've always considered it a unicorn gun that I would love to have, but nobody seems to remember them.

Thanks for an outstanding history of the Beretta. Good various configurations. Carrying an M9 in the Navy, the only drawback for me was the large grip size. The durability and reliability of the M9 was very reassuring when carrying one into harms way.

So there is something interesting about the barrel ramp and reliable feeding. It's conventionally believed that designs that use a ramp will be less reliable when feeding certain ammunition but for whatever reason the S&W 4506 challenges this. That gun is capable of feeding, chambering, and extracting an entire magazine of empty casings. How does it do that?

Thank you for doing this. My only jeers is towards Crimson Trace and their refusal to restart and make Beretta Vertec laser grips for people with the M9a3 and m9a4 as the M9 grips they make for the 92FS doesn't fit the m9a3 and m9a4 or current vertec framed series. Maybe you can put some weight and bug them on making the vertec laser grips again. Again, thanks for doing this video.
