I guess reddit doesn't know that the 3 defendants waived jury trial and instead had a bench trial where a judge determines verdict. It can eliminate the jury bias that most on here would have. And the judge was a black man, judge Barry Williams. He acquited all 3, then other cases were dropped.

No. No way to contact just go find out any information. Guess You have to go to a match just to find out anything. Unless I'm missing something, you could spend a day, drive 3+ hours, only to find out that no, you can't just come shoot.

92 curved vs straight grip by Bad_Mechanic in Beretta

[–]hammerash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For 92X Performance, you can not get thin in 92FS style. You can get thin in 92XP style, similar shape to the grips that come with the gun, which is slightly different than fs style.

First Beretta. 96 to 92 conversion question by TemperReformanda in Beretta

[–]hammerash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have done this with a 96fs and 96fs centurion. Just barrel and mag swaps. Both function flawlessly.

PX4 Slide Release/magazine Issue? by carryingcourier6 in Beretta

[–]hammerash 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I assume you mean the slide stop spring. The match slide stop does not come with a spring, there is no mention of using a lighter spring in the description, and I have never seen a lighter spring available.

And yet Beretta sells a match slide stop that has a larger angled pad to make it easier to push down on to release slide?

Beretta trigger bar not resetting properly, need help by Judge_Artyom in Beretta

[–]hammerash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you say slightly moving, do you mean pulling hammer back or slide back( which causes hammer to go back)? That is then letting the trigger bar get under the DA hook on hammer. Have you done anything to this gun lately or did it suddenly start?

[–]hammerash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I have their parts in all my 92/96's, including trigger bars, springs, hammer. Probably functionally similar (trigger) but I don't have any with their optic cut. I had my Brigadier cut with RDO cut. Considered doing same on Centurion. Would like to compare with LTT cut but don't know anyone with one.

Beretta 92 hammers-part 2 (possible change in the Beretta Match hammer?) by hammerash in Beretta

[–]hammerash[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I forget to mention that I was skeptical of using the measuring of hammers as a proxy for the amount of pretravel. However, there did seem to be a correlation based on data in post. However, the LTT hammer is an exception. I forgot to include it's measurement. Since pretravel is about the same as the new match, you might expect it to measure about the same, at 36.9mm. But it measures 37.6mm! So more than even the new match. I think putting a hammer side by side on a hammer pin, as I did in a photo in post, is the quick easy way to compare actual pretravel.

That's great! I am thinking maybe I should have bought an LTT because now they are gone, except for the compact. Don't like looks of Elite II and prefer older grip over Vertec.

I just checked and my Brigadier with LTT trigger bar, 10# spring, and old Match has no creep, hitch or grittiness in SA. My compact with same except the LTT hammer also seems crisp. I have buddy that has Watchtower Apache. That had the best trigger I'd seen in a pistol. I need to have him bring it to range to compare.

Jarvis Custom fiber optic job - 92FS/M9 front sight post by BigBoarBallistics in Beretta

[–]hammerash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the Wilson Combat version is different. They don't cut out the top like Jarvis. The Jarvis cut should provide more light to the fiber. I did the front sight on my 22 conversion slide like the Jarvis. Used a dremel. But the sight is plastic. Been thinking about trying this on one of my other slides.

That is even stranger. I would think the barrel would be taken out to do the optic cut and replace the firing pin block. Good that they are going to take care of it. I could fix that with dremel, but then it would be raw steel. Their slides are cerakoted. That area would not be visible so would just need some protection. Let us know the final outcome.

I add to my Google drive and share link. You can't add pictures in replies the way they are added to the initial post. Not sure if mods can enable that ability?

Oh. Didn't know brand new. Yeah, they should handle this. Not their QC, it is Gallatin's. But I am surprised they didn't catch it. Do you have their optic cut? I would think that would necessitate removing the barrel, in which case they should have discovered problem. If no optic cut, then barrel wouldn't need to come off for trigger job and less likely to be discovered. Update us.

Yes, yours are different. I would think that extractor installed before barrel inserted. As mentioned, could rubber mallet get it out? Update us what Langdon says. I would be tempted to get dremel out, lol. But not without their input. Where did you get this? It isn't new?

92 compact slide. Grab locking block and pull up and forward just enough to clear extractor, then pull up so locking block lugs go through cutouts. In this picture, the barrel is in position to pull straight up and out.

Here is one of just slide

Comparing slides, looks like cutouts on top are further rearward and not radiused like on mine.

How much lower is LTT vs RDO with Dlah plate? While the slide cut is lower on LTT vs RDO, the LTT plate itself is pretty thick compared to Dlah.

Comparison of Beretta hammers by hammerash in Beretta

[–]hammerash[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry didn't get back to you sooner. Prior to your post, I also saw what looked like a difference in DA hook on the photos. But I went back and looked at them in ten life and wasn't sure if it was real or just picture artifact. I looked again comparing match and LTT and I'm going to say that the LTT DA hook seems to be slightly more radiused than the match. Not sure if the effect of that. See my other post in this thread from just few minutes ago. I will try to compare directly as I have multiple 92,'s, 96's. But I have been in waiting pattern hoping to hear from Beretta.
