Good morning. First post here, and actually registered because of this thread.
Beretta is well loved in my house.
LOTS of good information has been presented, thus far. A couple points I’ll address:
1. If you’re not comfortable with safety lever manipulation, conversion to “G”, or Decock Only, is now easy. It’s $60 in parts, and there are plenty of videos showing disassembly. Beretta M9 | 92/96 G Conversion Kit - https://www.berettausa.com/en-us/beretta-g-lever-kit/
2. Improving the DA trigger pull is as simple as replacing the OEM 20# hammer spring with a lighter spring. 16# is common, but 14# isn’t out of the norm and shouldn’t compromise reliability. If it’s in the budget, the Trigger Job In A Bag from Langdon Tactical Technology is worth its weight in gold.
3. Mec-Gar magazines are phenomenal and increase capacity without sacrificing reliability.
4. Replace your recoil spring every 5000 rounds.
When you can, get some quality training.
Enjoy your new blaster. You’ve made an excellent choice.
Regards,
Jeremy
