It has a long reach to the trigger in DA mode, so if you have smallish hands, it can be a real challenge to shoot that first shot in DA mode with good speed and accuracy. The 92FS is a large pistol, but not particularly heavy, just bulky/fat. And the grip MUST cover the pin head, because that is what holds it in place (keeps it from walking/sliding out during operation). Because Beretta re-fitted a lot of guns with a conversion kit having new grips, there are a lot of lightly-used factory-made 92F grips on the market WITHOUT the needed cut, so be aware. Same thing if you find used Beretta 92 F grips at a gunshow or online, you need to make sure they have the cut for that larger pin head, or they won't fit right. FS or FA), they may not fit flush with the frame on the left side near the top, as there was a change to the head size of the hammer pin from the 92F to the 92 FS/FA, and if the grip isn't relieved/cut for the larger pin head, then the grip won't correctly lay flat against the frame.

Your slide seems to be stamped 92-F, so that's the functional model number, but it may have been upgraded to FS by the factory or a previous owner. Similar to (may actually be identical to) the Beretta 92 FS, according to most sources I can find online. Attached photos with half-ass cell phone, so any issues, well. Much thanks for all contributions/replies.

Is the frame any issue, with normal pressure loads (yeah, I 6x googled it)? Where to look for cracks/fatigue if issue(s) forthcoming (locking block, frame, any)? What else to consider with this system? Is this a keeper (it's free)? All comments/input appreciated! Ordered a new locking block (from Beretta), although wings look solid still. No +P+ ammo, currently Hornady Critical Defense, or 115g ball for practice, etc. What does the double-stamp on the trigger guard, right, indicate?įWIW, planning this to be part of home defense system.
