Does the Berretta 92 have different grip screw locations.

A few months ago I bought a set of used Crimson Trace laser grips from a guy on a forum... with the intent of giving them to a friend who has a Berretta 92 (actually a Berretta 92FS compact L) seems the grips don't fit the lower screw hole is about an 8th of an inch off...

I'm presuming the 'compact' version must have a smaller grip than the standard... I'm really not familiar with this pistol this compact version sure looks full-sized to me.

Yes, compacts have a shorter grip, and different grip screw locations.

Full sized grips won’t fit compacts.

Kind of why they are called compacts.

Please title your thread more accurately. Example: "beretta 92 grip screws."

Fixed the title and I have to admit that while I was posting and looking at the pistol I kind of figured that's what the deal was.. that the compact's grip was slightly different... did not realize this was a compact until I got it home. Sure is a big pistol to be called a compact in my opinion. The interesting thing is the hole for the screw on the Crimson Trace grip is not 'shorter' but just slight more to the rear.
