Actually handled one, Beretta M9 A3, about a year ago.
Since then, can't find one. 2 on gunbroker for several hundred over msrp.

Prefer the G model.
Figured that after giving up army contract they would be gearing up for civilian market? Anybody see them?

Seen several around here. Don't seem to stick around long in display cases, unlike the standard 92s.

They're still like 27,000 units allocated. Demand far outstrips their ability to supply.

Best advice; sign up for the back in stock notification at KYGUNCO and be ready to place your order within 5-10min of the email. $839 is the best deal going on these and they do get batches in every few weeks.

I've been hesitant to order one from the internet, the only one I have seen in person had a horrible finish, and it was not complete on the rails and parts of the slide. I want one bad, but I don't want a bad one.

I gots me two

The Field & Stream store by my house (Troy, MI) has had one on display for a few months now. Unfortunately not a 'G' model.

Just bought SAO Legion, and an Elite RX SAO a few weeks ago. Need to have some funds available for when the Brig Tac arrives, but otherwise I'm kinda tapped out!

If you just want the G and have a F or FS, Beretta now sells a drop-in replacement. I converted a 1975 Berben import with it-just dropped right in with no issues. Cost me about $50 from Beretta.

After giving up, my local dealer just called and said he had one in G version for me. bad timing as I don't need to be spending the money right now
