Beretta 92 Scratching under Takedown lever

Hey all,

I was wondering if you Beretta 92 owners are experiencing what I am experiencing with my brand new Beretta 92A1. It seems that the few times I have taken the slide off the frame and put it back on, the takedown lever has scratched a small circular line/groove onto the frame. It's deep enough that it has taken off the finish and you can see bare aluminum. Is this normal?

    just inspected my 92a1, did not see any hint of any scraping by the take down lever. I've had my 92a1 apart prob. 15-20 times now as reference.

    why are you taking the lever completely out of the frame. ive had my beretta for almost 20yrs and have never done that.

    So I can take teh picture and show you guys what I was talking about. The lever pulls right out freely after the slide is off and you rotate the lever counterclockwise.

    Their is a burr on the takedown lever or miss machined and some material was left, call and explain your problem see if they will send you a new takedown lever..

    That's what I thought too... but I checked the takedown lever and it's perfectly smooth. Maybe it's just a normal wear point?

    I just took mine off and looked. It's wearing a little bit. It looks like wear, not scratches. Yours might look like scratches due to the contrast of the black finish and the aluminum

    Thanks for checking that out and letting me know... I appreciate it. It just alarmed me because the gun is only a couple of weeks old.
