    I am getting ready to trade my taurus pt111 and accessories for a beretta 9000 .40 caliber and am wanting some input. The trade is going down this Thursday and I am starting to have second guesses. Any opinions?

    Has the pt 111 been reliable? how many accessories?

    Beretta 9000's are good guns but can be found for $300 Used.
    Love mine but its a 9mm.

    I almost bought one of the berettas. After holding it I didn't think I would be able to get used to the TINY slide area to rack it. Do you have that problem?

    Yes, I use a cross hand slide grip to chamber it. You can tear up your finger tips on the slide serration's the normal way.
