So, I went to the store to get some .17 cleaning supplies... (update)

And I walked out with this instead. :D

One expensive cleaning kit.

Oh well, been wanting an M9, and the A3 version was the one I was most interested in.

I will see how she shoots tomorrow.


UPDATE:

Took her to the range today. She shot well, nice and smooth, like other Berettas I have shot.


I did have a little problem though. The Trigger pin wanted to walk out of the frame. Turns out the leg of the slide stop spring, that hold it in was not in place properly.

I remove the slide stop to fix the issue, but no luck... The spring is not the correct one. It is too short to fit on the slide stop and into the hole to hold the trigger pin at the same time.

A call to Beretta is in order.

In addition to the ammo can box they ship it in, it had this outer cardboard box... which I found a bit amusing.

Here is the reason I needed the .17 supplies. Ruger American in 17 HMR. I will be doing an initial review after I get it to the range.

Also have a Marlin in 17m2. I really like these 17's.
 
There is a reason they had to put the remove product from box disclaimer..:D.
Nice buy Marine, about as nice of a pistol as it gets IMO.
 
Beretta is sending me a new slide stop spring. It's an easy fix, so no need to send the pistol back.

Should fix the issue of the trigger pin walking out.
