Beretta 92x vs 92X Performance

[@Bofore13]

Your point near the end about the muzzle flip being low and the felt recoil being higher is exactly why I love this piece.

[@arnoldgallegos6247]

That Beretta performance will make a great resident evil host😎

[@c.j.echave]

I sent the slide to be refinished and bought a stainless barrel and turned mine into Weskers Samurai Edge

[@nojoy7238]

really want to pick these up. It's a beretta with 1911 style grip angle and safety. sounds cool.

[@archmagosfariston5373]

Good review, I appreciate you going through the pros and cons in a methodical way.

[@perryklein1790]

I respect your dedication to Beretta over the years.

[@jeffhresan5391]

I know this is an old video talking about the 92X. One very important aspect of the Beretta 92X. It's a beautiful gun! Having a fast car is great but having a fast car that looks fantastic is even better. My two cents.

[@archerpride]

The 92x Performance is to the all other Beretta 92s what the CZ Shadow is to all other CZ 75 variants. They're not designed for defensive use, but are tuned to go fast for competition. The sights are an indication that the gun is designed for practical shooting: the fiber optic front (which sport shooters replace regularly for max brightness) / black out rear is the default sights set-up of non-optic practical shooting guns because front sight focus is a must for taking down plates at speed. The safety is another indicator that the gun is designed for competitive shooting: production division shooters hammer down manually at the start so a decocker is useless; besides, a decocker mechanism is detrimental to a crisp, short, and light trigger pull. The muzzle is target crowned to help shooters put 2 shots (esentially, a group) in the A-zone at distance. Just like the Shadow 2, the 92x Performance is steel-framed and heavy to soak up recoil for fast follow-up shots (up to 9 shots per port against the clock in IPSC) and the barrel is just under the 127mm IPSC production division barrel length limit. Lastly, the 92x Performance comes with the Xtreme-S trigger which by Beretta's own disclaimer is for sports use only. It's like the Type R of Honda Civics, or the Modificata variant of the Ferrari 488. They're not daily drivers, but track day toys. #factoryracer #raceversion

[@wellitsureisntdale1860]

My standard 92X came with serrations on the front and rear of the slide. Also came with spots to affix dot sights. Not sure what the difference is but it’s the one without the de-cocker safety and just the de-cocker. I bought it new so it wasn’t modified before I bought it.

[@jamestaylor2237]

It may have been upgraded to a brigadier slide

[@kmsharley75]

Mine came with front serrations as well. Centurion G model. Mine was brand new as well.

Ok Kyle, I took the plunge today. Waiting on my LTT slide milling back from Langdon. But...bought the the Performance today. Want to compete so..here we go. You're openess about the Beretta has me doubling-up with Beretta. Ready to be reacquainted with them after shooting the Marine Corps issue decades ago. Thanks man!

[@Drew4078]

You good Sir deserve the “happy Kyle” experience whenever you spend that kind of money! Thank you for sharing your thoughts and opinions!

[@CalamityBYC1]

I shot 124 grain and 147 grain for my 92x performance and definitely 147 grain had a whole lot less recoil and made it easy to keep it the gun shooting flat. Also I updated mine with better grips from Toni systems and added a better match hammer that give you a shorter trigger pull by 2mm!

[@mrjones4249]

Did you have to do any extra work to install the grips?

[@seantu1496]

As a 1911 shooter, who also owns an old 92 (no letter) with the safety where it is like the performance, along with a 92SB and M9, have shot a performance, and it is on the list of things I'll be buying. The biggest difference between the performance for me and the other 92's I have shot is the trigger. It's not a 1911 trigger, but better than any other 92 I've shot.

[@gvines]

It has more felt recoil I think due the fact that it is rearward recoil rather than muzzle flip. I own the perf and I think your video is fairly good description of it. I bought it mainly because the safety was different.

[@crabblike]

I’m with you on the safety. I have all set up for decock/no safety (G) because I like it that way.

[@jonoj7666]

Great review and comparison 😊👌👍 Thanks for the info and explanation on the px in context of a competition pistol 😊👍

[@Hotdogger808]

I waited 14 months for my Performance to arrive here in Australia. I need to shoot out to 50 meters so needed a red dot mount,. Found one at Toni Systems code OPXB92XA Type A which suits up to 8 different red dots. I use a delta Point Pro. They have a type B also that suits another variety of red dots. I think the wait was worth it. Yes it is a heavy platform, but has a short reset. with the new Extreme-S trigger. I found trying to find a red dot mount difficult and ended up paying a small fortune to get one in from Italy. I have a spare red dot mount of the same type I would be happy to let go to someone who has a performance if they can't find one and at what I paid for it plus postage to wherever you are, preferably Oz. It's Black Anodised Aluminium from what I can tell. Dovetail is CNC'd to fit the LPA slot on the Performance. Getting the rear LPA sigh of is hard without the right tools. Beretta press fit all their sights according to Beretta, so if you don't the right sight pusher you may need to have a a smith install it. I rang Beretta and they confirmed sights goes out from right to left and in from left to right both front and rear. Well that's what I am advised. Currently the Performance goes for approx $2500 in Australia. Cheers

[@budredden818]

Just bought the 92 x performance today.

[@schneir5]

After using my CZ TS2 for the last few weeks, my standard Beretta 92fs feels so light! I think the TS2 weighs even more than the Beretta 92X Performance.

[@sunnycat69]

I pick up my 92x today and just got wilson n LTT parts in 👌🏻😁

[@steven3379]

Love my 92X RDO Compact, wouldn't trade it for either one of these!

[@schneir5]

I don't mind using my left hand to drop the slide on my CZ Shadow 2 and TS2. It's just the trade-off you make to have the extended safety for resting your right thumb.

[@bradleyyounger8499]

Haven't tried the trigger on either of these but the trigger on the LTT felt amazing to me. If it is anywhere near it it is amazing

[@ManInTheBigHat]

Why do you want a decocker? I like an explanation of the value of that function as I'm researching which model I'd like to purchase

[@vkyle91x]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/Zp20eZiubKmlm9U

[@nicholascohen852]

I very foolishly traded my CZ Shadow 2 for a Beretta 92FS Brigadier. Here in Australia you can't 'try out' guns or rent them, so you take your chances. I wanted something lighter than the CZ. Big mistake! I have now traded the 92FS for the 92 X Performance (because I still own 6 Beretta compatible magazines). I've yet to try it out, but am hoping for the best. Last thing... If you think guns are expensive in Canada.... The Beretta here costs around $3,500- $4,000! Thanks for a great video. Interesting!

[@berkankoz]

I paid 2.9 for my 92XP , still waiting for the PTA to come in so I can pick it up . Been reading online and there seems to be a lot of problems with this . I have been thinking of swapping my purchase to maybe a SIG P320 or a HK VP9 , even a CZ shadow . I really like the look of the beretta but want something reliable. What’s your take on that ? Have you had any issues ?

[@HuxleyTheProf]

Good to know about the trigger being better without a decocker. I wanted one on my shadow before you said that.

[@nofear6235]

Glad I find this video, great job! I am planning to get Beretta, now not sure which one , lol. 92X Fulll size sounds like smarter, more economical choice, but man, I love the 92X Performance looks and feel. I have 2 more day to decide...

[@muaythai193]

You talked about the recoil of the performance, but never compared it to the 92x. Which one feels lighter recoiling to you?

[@DHARMN00]

I bought the 92x performance a week ago, it was actually $500 cheaper than the CZ Shadow 2 that was in the same display

[@jcaputo3156]

Come on Beretta, why is the rear sight dipping down to the left. I see it on my gun and so many other guns in videos. I closely looked over three gun in a shops display case and they all had the cockeyed rear sight.

[@salvocomplicazioni75]

Ciao, complimenti! Due domande... 1) Perché su questo modello non si è adottata la soluzione come nella 98A1 , con all'interno del fusto, accanto al chiavistello di smontaggio, un ammortizzatore in metallo che attutisce l'impatto del carrello-otturatore contro il fusto in fase di sparo, distribuendo le sollecitazioni subite a vantaggio di una maggiore durata dell'arma? 2) Perché negli States si compra quasi a metà prezzo (circa 650 dollari) rispetto al listino a noi rivolto? Grazie!
