New Beretta 92G

[Sam]

Got one of the new 92G. I replaced the factory hammer spring with a 1911 main spring and found a pre owned Elite II hammer and Comp Tac holster. The 1911 spring dramatically reduced the DA pull and produced 100% ignition.

Nice. Out of curiosity is that a US or Italian made pistol?

Sam do you know what weight main spring you used?

I just sent my 92A1 slide to Josh at Allegheny Gun Works for a "G" conversion. I bought it nearly two years ago specifically to be converted and finally got an email from him that his supplier finally delivered his parts.

No sir I do not know, it's a used one in by bag of spare parts.

I would use a 19lb if using it with an Elite hammer.

Interesting factoid -- based on recent testing by a very knowledgable person, the stock Beretta hammer provides better ignition than the Elite II hammer.

A1 doesn't necessarily imply dovetailed front sights. The M9A1 has the standard fixed front sight of the 92FS/M9.

It's actually a standard 92FS slide - a COTS upgrade under the M9 program. It's not even stamped M9.

So, I asked Beretta USA via FB, and this is what I got from them:

Dear , we have started releasing 90 series variants this year, with the 92G and Brigadier models. More will follow and might include GSD and GA1 models. We will make announcements on beretta.com and on our social media accounts when these models become available. Best, Beretta Social Media

So it looks like we all may get something we want out of this!

They're exactly talking about the 92G-SD Super Dave model. Many people will be happy.

This is all just bad news ...for my bank account...

In my previous life, when I had the G-SD and Vertec, I did use the Elite II hammers in them along with 19 lb 1911 main springs. Never had any problem with them. I was told that the Elite II hammers were more reliable than the Elite hammers.

Like I said, the 1911 spring that I put in this G is of unknown force, but I haven't had any misfires.
