Comparison Table Between Beretta 92FS and Beretta M9 Parameter of Comparison Beretta 92FS Beretta M9 Designation Beretta 92FS is a series of Beretta 92 semi-automatic pistol. I love them both and strongly recommend any 92 model.It is a single-action, double-action, short recoil, semi-automatic pistol that uses a 15-round staggered box magazine with a reversible magazine release button that can be positioned for either left- or right-handed shooters. Also, there’s the cool factor with the Wilson Combat too. As accurate as the Border Marshall is, the Wilson Combat is noticeably even more accurate. Took both 92’s to the range, test fired side by side. I opted for that one because it was $1000.00 less than the brand new one. One brand new, never fired, the other, test fired and put away in a safe. Love that one so much that I recently bought a Wilson Combat 92. One in the gun and one in the mag pouch gives me 36 rounds readily available. I recently bought 2 Metgar flush fit 18 round magazines which are great. Shoots great, very accurate, super reliable, and there’s the cool factor of the Border Marshall edition. The didn’t make many of them, and from my research, it’s not worth much more than a regular 92. It’s basically a 92fs that says Border Marshall in white script on the slide, and comes with factory nights sights. I bought my first 92 18 years ago, always wanted one, and when I went to purchase it, they had a Border Marshall edition which caught my eye. Put simply, I am far too familiar with this reliable work horse to ever let it go. Friends have asked me why I didn’t sell the beretta once I got a G19. Like another commenter I have also adapted my sub2000 to take beretta mags. I also feel safe and confident carrying in condition 1 with the hammer down and no external safety. I could drop the thing down a flight of stairs pick it up and still hit the target no problem. It’s accurate, simple to dissasemble and clean, and ruggedly constructed. You get the same reliable trigger every time. No fumbling with a safety or cocking or decocking a hammer. All I have to do is draw, take up the slack of the trigger to a clean break, and repeat. Over the years I have grown to appreciate the 92D. The mechanics were different than my M9 service pistol so training with it was not a 1 for 1 comparison. Being that the D version is double action only I was a bit put off by it at first. I found one available at a good price so I went with it on a whim. I originally picked it up to be able to practice for the Marine Corps range in my off time. I’ve had a 92D with fixed combat sights for 20 years or so. Take a look and ensure the safety rotates properly, and that the wings of the safety prevent the hammer from contacting the firing pin as the hammer drops.

Check the decock lever to be certain it drops the hammer as it should. Cleaning the firing pin channel is overlooked. This is a given with all self-loading handguns. Firing Pin, Safety/Decockerīe certain to clean the firing pin channel.

Unless, a lot of steel case cartridges were used, or the pistol’s slide was continually dropped on a chambered round, the extractor should not be an issue. Cleaning the extractor is all that is usually needed. Powder ash, grit, and even pieces of brass may build up under the extractor. Just the same, it needs a thorough cleaning. I have never had to replace a Beretta extractor. If the pistol recoils too much or doesn’t snap into battery when the slide is racked, you need another recoil spring. If the pistol is used, it certainly doesn’t hurt to be pro-active and replace the recoil spring. Recoil springs are inexpensive and easily changed. Some need replacement at 3,500 rounds, while others may last to 5,000. If the pistol snaps too hard with excess recoil firing standard loads, chances are the recoil spring is worn. This Wilson Combat recoil spring will last many thousands of rounds.
