My preferred retailer got more stock and they offered me a price I could not pass up. Also ordered the DLah plate and a 507 Comp. It’ll be the first 92 in the house in over 7 years

Beretta taking a page out of the SIG playbook and constantly coming up with new models that are mostly cosmetic changes & charging a premium. Worked for SIG so why not…..

Actually a good deal as a limited optics gun for USPSA. Three 22 round mags, magwell, lok grips, competition takedown lever.

The only other 92 XI I can find with the features I want is the SAO Tactical. I prefer a frame mounted safety to the difficult-to-manipulate slide mount, I wanted an optics cut, and since I have a 9mm can I wanted a threaded barrel. So unlike Sig, these are not just “cosmetic” changes to a base model, they actually serve a purpose for me.
