It came up. I love watching you run through those stages. Seems like more targets each time. The Beretta rocks. And I see that last stage you made good use of eye protection.

One too many neat videos of you outshooting me by a lot. Drat.
So then I added up how much I was spending to build my perefect Beretta (M9A1, Vertec slide, better sights, grips, mag release, TJIAB) and realized friggin Ernest is making my gun but better. And a bit cheaper. So I just bought a pair. That sounded wrong. I just bought two LTT Elites.
Thanks guys.This message has been edited. Last edited by: pedropcola,

Wow, the LTT Elite with the trigger job for under $1200 MSRP does look like a great deal. Wilson Brig-Tac killer.

I don't even think its a close call. WC custom? Sure, I might drop that coin, but they just take stock Berettas off the line and add some parts and call it a day. At WC prices. The LTT Elite is going to end up being the Beretta 92 to own and while not cheap its cheaper than you can make.
Do the math, M9A1 650, Vertec slide 350 I got mine on sale 227, grips 69, extended mag release 30, TJIAB 165, upgraded front and rears 100, cut and crowned barrel say 30, flush mainspring cap 30, G conversion 55. Add it up and you come out to 1356 using my sales price on the slide. Subtract whatever you can sell a standard FS slide for, which isn't much, and you are at his asking price. Minus the melting he does on the trigger guard and the back of slide.
This will kill the WC's unless they up their game or lower their price imo.
