A most excellent gun. Love mine and no, you or anyone else can't have it lol. Not too common but good luck. :D

I love mine too.

And especially because it runs the same mags as my Beretta Storm  CX4 in .45acp.

Good luck finding one!

Thanks dude. I appreciate it. I’m holding out for a .45 though. 

Understandable, in that case I found some magazines on eBay for your consideration https://www.ebay.com/itm/1-P-B-BERETTA-ORIGINAL-45-AUTO-OEM-8045-COUGAR-8-ROUND-MAGAZINE-FACTORY-ITALY-/203531193664?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l6249&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0

I'm the original owner and it's in excellent condition (includes box and paperwork) with only 275 (flawless) rounds through it.

I mostly shoot 9mm so this has been sitting in my safe (cleaned and oiled) for several years and I'm looking for something new. 

I have 8 mags in total...the 2 that came with the gun are in excellent condition, 2 are new/still in package, and 4 that I bought used (but in good/very good condition). The Beretta 8045 mags typically sell for $45 each new. 

I also bought/have 3 extra recoil springs, which I'd include as well. 

This is one of the early models with Beretta's bruniton coated (I believe they switched to blued at some point) slide and (I'm sad to say) the finish is actually nicer than my Beretta 92. For those that don't know, Beretta owns Stoeger and produced the 8000 series pistols under the Stoeger name for several years.

I had a pair of wood grips on it for a short while. They looked great but made it a bit too big for my hand. I couldn't find the Stoeger grips so I just ordered a pair of Berettas along with some custom screws.

The 8045 is discontinued and becoming increasingly hard to find...especially in this condition.

Located in Bergen County. 

Price for everything is $700, which seems very fair based on the sold prices that I've seen on Gunbroker for Stoeger 8045s in much lesser condition. 

With regards to trades, I'm mostly interested in trading for a Mossberg 590 / 590a1 / Shockwave or a pistol caliber lever action but feel free to make other rifle / shotgun offers. Depending on the value of your trade, cash can be added either way. 

Please PM / email me with any questions.

    • We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in
    • I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html
    • The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam 
    • I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
    • Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
