Italian Beretta 92s - Police Trade In

[DavidMcmillan]

Anyone have any real information on these? Every few days, I receive an email of deals with PSA, and these at $330 seem interesting. All the internet reviews I read this weekend present them as being in very good mechanical condition, but varying degrees of cosmetic condition.

My favorite Beretta, if I actually had one...

The mag release is at the heel of the grip rather than near the trigger. New mags still have the lower heel-release notch, except for those with a larger capacity than 15 rounds.

That's what I hear anyway...

Italian LE trade ins. Likely have cappuccino and pasta sauce stains

There is a reason they call them pepperoni guns. [emoji16]

Okay, I am well aware of Beretta quality, and I love Italian food, but has anyone seen any of the trade-in pieces?

Yes, I've owned a few of the trade-in Berettas. The ones that I had were very good quality, better than expected for the price.

I have one, never taken time to shoot it tho, looks well used but mostly cosmetic. I think I paid about $275 years ago, can't remember whether it came from PSA or CDNN or ?? Intending to refurbish it someday, maybe gold plate

@skyhawk1 Just sent a PM your way.

When I really started kicking actually pulling the trigger on a Beretta, but didn't have funding for a new model, these were strongly in the running. They were $275-300 at the time. I got funds for a new one (now have four of the damn things), but have yet to acquire a 92S. Heard plenty of good things about them, not a bad gig for a historic piece.
