Nice pistols!
My little Beretta collection (My 84BB isn't pictured) Both the M9A1 & the compact have had the full WC treatment. The other two are an 81 & a Tomcat

I picked up my Compact 2 years ago when the Egyptian contract overruns hit the market. I think they were going in the low $400s IIRC. Hard to pass up any Beretta for that price.

The 15 round MecGar compact mags were just the icing on the cake. I swapped out the curved basepads for flat ones and still have no problem getting a full grip on the gun (juuuuust barely )

One of my carry guns - converted it to "G", added an extended mag release, LTT grips, and went with a 14lb mainspring.

I’ve got to get mine converted to G and it will look exactly like that.

Just got to test shoot it today. Best Beretta trigger I’ve ever felt. She’ll need new sights but that’s about it. I suspect a trip to Langdon tactical or Wilson combat will be in order. Best 36 year old pistol I can remember shooting.

Glad to hear it. You have a great classic there. I like what Wilson does with their Fiber Optic front sight and it only costs $50 (at least it did the last time I had it done).

It's still $50

I had Wilson do the front sight of my M9A1. I think total turnaround was maybe 2 weeks start to finish.
