Hello everyone! Just takin a minute to tell everyone of my latest purchase! It's a stainless Beretta 96FS. What a pretty gun! Not that pretty is everything, but it sure is east on the eyes. Easy on the old wrist, now that's another story. The only other .40 I've fired was a glock 22 and I can't recall the recoil being this sharp.. it feels like 230 grain hardball from a 1911, but quicker. Not terrible, but I definitely know I'm not shooting my 92 or M9 9mm. My groups weren't as good either. I really don't care for the sighting arrangement of three red dots, the standard 92FS' sights are much easier to pick up at the indoor range. Outdoors, it probably would suffice. Also, the only thing I don't particularly care for is the hogue grips that came standard on the gun. I much prefer the standard black plastic as they make the grip slightly thinner. I will probably call Beretta and have them send me new grips w/ screws. Other than that, though, it shot just like my other Berettas and didn't miss a beat. A little practice and this could become my primary HD weapon.

Had a 92 Centurion for years. Then recently picked up an Italian 92fs w/ very low miles. Now, I'm playing w/ the idea of either a Brigadier or a Vertec (when it becomes available).
