Nice. Still on my list (although in black, not a huge FDE fan). Love the Vertec grip. Had I stumbled on that before I bought my BrigTac and LTT Elite I would have snapped that up first as a suppressor host.

I'm not a "fan" either. People go a little overboard withe the fde and od green guns, which I'm sure for lots of people only get used for tactical dressup if at all. That's all well and good, but still silly. The black one, is pretty uniformly black. If this pistol were actually a uniform color across its parts, I might have gone with black. The different shades make it more interesting. If I lived in the desert or a town full of mud huts, fde might be useful I guess.

Nice! I’ve had the itch for an Inox 92 lately. Trying hard to resist but we all know how this will eventually end.

Congratulations. If I was to own one M92 that would be the one!

Hey Arc, what shop did you get that from? My father lives in MA and is looking for one

Massachusetts allows them?

I hope so, otherwise that gun shop is in trou-ble.

Right now the only things you can't buy new are AR-15s, and Glocks. And some high end makers that won't submit their guns for "testing."

This is amazing. I am glad I live in a free state!

One would think a pistol that has been used by the US Military, that has a threaded barrel no less, would upset the snowflakes more than a Glock!

Great first Beretta. The a3 is the Cadillac of the 92 series.

He's got more in black and fde.

Congratulations, Arc!

I finally got a Beretta 92FS in spite of a bias against them (preferred the Sig platform) and have grown to enjoy it more 'n more. I got a 92 Compact later and recently a 92 Compact model M. I like the platform and shoot it well.

The other day a friend shared his A3 at the range for a few rounds and I fell n love with it. I can't identify what sets it apart from the "regular" 92's but it feels and shoots sooo much better. I'll end up with one some day.

Are you allowed full caps?

People with Class A permits can possess standard cap mags made before 1998. It's not a priority with this gun, but I imagine that old Beretta mags will work in it. Other weapons like the P320 or SCAR 17, 10rnds only. Think of the chirrins!

Gun laws are dumb.

Love that Berretta.

Careful there. We in MA can only own/possess mags that hold over 10 rounds if made before SEPT. 1994 not 1998.

Yeah, about that.

It's pretty easy to avoid No-No mags. Start with all the guns that didn't exist back then. After that, you go to companies that marked their mags LE/Mil only, handy because this was the federal AWB companies were cowing to. Then, you go to mags that have generation specific properties, like Glock mags. Wherein you don't have a specific year, but you have a date range for the type of construction of the mag. Then, some companies date stamp their magazines, Steyr for instance.

After that, it's approaching impossible to discern a pre or post 94 mag. Especially when they are made to a pattern of an established firearm.

I've been on the range here and seen Pmags, which I don't appreciate. I'm not NARCing those fools, but really, _try_ to follow the law guys.

Has anyone ever been busted for non-compliant magazines? Not that I'm aware of... by itself. Usually when someone gets dinged for the magazine laws, they've already done a number of bad things, and the cops are now building a layer cake of charges on top of whatever you did to get them searching your home. But really no one should be volunteering by getting a hold of say, standard capacity P320 mags and other things that simply didn't exist at the time the law was passed so are just obviously not OK.
