Can you tell me if this is the model (92FS - Italy) that can be converted to shoot .22 or .22lr? I am a bit confused between the FS and FS1B. I know you have the real deal from Italy but that's about all I can see.

 

I believe it's only the 92A1 with the curved trigger guard and recoil-reducing buffer that cannot accept the conversion kit. The 92FS, original M9 and M9A1 can accept the kit, but check Beretta's website to be sure. I'm at work and can't do that right now.

Congratulations on the purchase of a fine Beretta.

 

Tomorrow when you wake up, you will notice two beautiful Italian women sleeping next to you. As you shower they will make you Caffè e latte and fresh colazione. When you look in the mirror, you will notice that you are taller and much more handsome than you were the day before. When you open your closet, all of your clothes are suddenly much more fashionable. When you go outside, you will notice that your car will have magically transformed into a Ferrari overnight.

 

Yes, being a Beretta owner has its perks. Now pardon me, I must dance the Tarentella with my beautiful wife before I catch the next plane to Milan... Congratulations on the purchase of a fine Italian firearm.

 

Along with the Beretta 92FS or M9A1, I'd take a Fiat 500 Abarth with Catrinel Menghia along for the ride...

Looks great.

 

Congrats

Thats a sweet pistol in that pic. Loved it so much it made me open up the safe to spend some time with my 92fs.

Nice. I prefer my 92a1 for the built in accessory rail and the recoil buffer. Wish they made the 22 conversion for it though, but the recoil buffer means the stock conversions won't fit. No worries, I just shoot my Browning Buckmark Camper for the 22 handgun love.

 

Actually I believe the stock .22lr conversion kit does fit the A1 guns but there is some gap between the frame and the slide near the recoil spring. It functions but just looks a little awkward. Beretta officially says it does not fit because it does leave a gap but I've heard on the Beretta forums that the function is just fine. Search the Beretta forum for more info.

mcbethr,

 

Thanks for your reply. You are of course, correct ;-)

The 92FS can accept the kit but the others cannot. I have read a lot of your posts about this gun so I figured you would have the answer.

Now I have to decide if I put money down to hold one until I get my FID and P2P or go for the PX Storm. Time will tell.........
