WTT: Beretta M9 / 1911

[local2fed]

I purchase an M9 on a whim and shot two magazines through the weapon. This gun isnt for me. Im looking for a full size 1911 (Kimber / Springfield/ Para/STI) to trade. I have cash to add. The M9 is in 98%-99% condition with no visible wear. It comes with the box, 3 high capacity Beretta factory magazines and booklet. Ill also include a new/never installed Beretta "D" spring. Please let me know if you're interested in trading. Additional close up pics available via text.

Believe me, you are not the only one who would trade an M9 for a 1911.

How about at least half current serving military?

Their not the same guns lol....You really think Beretta would make all of those and
try to keep up with regular demand lol That is why all military pistols are crap.
Everyone knows that....

So the government supplied M9's are shittier than civilian? Personally I love my Beretta 92!

Lowest bidder. Yeah, its worth is money.

I don't think they intentionally put shittier components in the one they supply the military though..

Just imagine an assembly line going 1/2 mph.People casually inspecting the guns and sanding here and there,just making it nicer
all the way through..

Then imagine an assembly line going 25mph and the guy on the end is scrambling to put them in a box to ship in 12 minutes..

Not saying using crappier parts.I'm saying no attention to detail,Could care less if gun works 10 times or 1 time.And most of
the time,they contract the work out.Send them parts and say ,here throw 20k of these together in 4 weeks,Gooooo...

I have absolutely no faith in ANY US government agency being better at anything then I can do, inequal monetary footing aside; but if you read the facts about the total dominance of our war operations in the field (when we really want to make a statement), it is hard for me to comprehend that the pistols our military is using are **** compared to civilian models.

Thanks. I assumed they weren't of lessor quality for being supplied to the military. Wouldn't make any sense. But slowhand and Dave seemed to think so and I think the former of those two has military experience!

I do not see a question posed in your above comment...looks more like a statement of your opinion..
