Can't say I'm a Beretta fanatic but I was issued an M9 back in the early '90s when I was a US Army M1A1 tanker. It was like carrying a brick in the shoulder holster but what a smooth shooter. Liked it so much I finally bought one for myself in 2016, still a smooth shooter.
I've been looking for the right deal to jump on the M9A3 bandwagon. I like beretta's and want to get a feel for what the M9A3 is all about.
I just picked up a M9A3 in black FS model for $775 before tax at Indiana Gun Club in Fishers thanks to the deal tip from a fellow INGO member.
I'm a fan, love my M9A3 and after I saw 92 compacts on Buds yesterday for 429.00 may need to jump on one of those as well.
Man, after I read this I went to Bud's website and almost hit the button. A moment of hesitation later and I was looking up the Inox version. The price difference made me come to my senses pretty quickly. How can the Inox be nearly $300 more than the Brunniton version? Dang, I better go have another look. Thanks, now I have a nearly uncontrollable urge for an impulse buy.
It's not as quality as all the "Good morning" , "I gotta go get groceries" , and the always quality "Good night" posts but give him time. Maybe he'll get educated by our talented wordsmiths who so graciously post the great quality content you're looking for.
I have very limited Beretta experience, but the M9A3 is looks like a very nice gun. I with the flat backstrap from the old Vertec-style 92, it looks like people with less than huge hands can handle it better than the older versions.
Yes, the Vertec style grip makes a big difference to smaller hands. I believe Wilson makes a 'short reach' trigger too that will improve it even more.
