Any Old School Beretta Fans?

[local2fed]

Picked up this 1984 Beretta 92SB today for a steal of $350. You dont see many of these as they were only made for a few years in the early 80's. This one is in pretty good shape for being 38 or so years old. Thought ya'll would enjoy seeing one of the early models that kicked off the legend.

I would like to see more pictures of it.

Big fan here. I’d say that’s about the midway point on the 92. They were kicked off many years earlier. Nice specimen though.

Very nice!

I have ended up with a old Beretta small collection. I have a 71, a bobcat 21a, and a 1951.

If you like your 92....come buy a Beretta 1951 from Gretna Gun Works. We have a few left.

Thanks! It appears the profile of the trigger guard is the only difference between the 92SB and the 92F. The 92FS / M9 added the enlarged hammer pin to stop the slide in case it broke.

Just before the ban, in 1995, I bought a 92FS Centurion that came with 15 round mags. I later put an adjustable rear sight on it. I still enjoy shooting it.

Can you send a pic of the Beretta 1951?

I have a pair of consecutively serialized 92SBs, that I picked up at the rod and gun club when I was deployed to Sicily, I also picked up the Beretta tricentennial over and under black powder shotgun

I bought a 92FS in 1991 and have shot over 10,000 rounds through it over that time period. Just recently I did a Langdon upgrade and even like it more. Rustic Renegade in Lafayette is doing one that I picked up from military surplus. It will be a tribute to my father n law who was in the Air Force. Can't wait to see the final product.

I have always preferred the original rounded, elegant trigger guard to the "hooked" trigger guard.

My Berettas today are a M21 Bobcat 22LR and a 92FS Desert Storm Commemorative.

I am a fan of any semiauto pistol that is double/single action and made out of metal not plastic. I need to get one of these to add to the collection.

I’ve been a big Beretta fan since the early 80’s. I’ve collected shotguns and rifles by Beretta but the pistols have always my favorite.

Who makes the grips?

 

[paulnola]

I just missed a great sale on PSA. They had model 85's for around $330 or so. The looked brand new.

I'm an old and new school fan. I upgraded my 92FS with a stainless recoil rod, metal trigger, skeletonized hammer, 11# recoil spring, and Hogue rubber grips. It now has a 6/3 lb trigger pull.

Sweet. I like the wood grip look too.
