Hard chromed the barrel bore to protect it from corrosion and to reduce wear.Recurved the forward base of the grip to aid aiming.Modified the front of the trigger guard so that one could use finger support for easier aiming.Design of all the parts to make them 100% interchangeable to simplify maintenance for large government organizations.Government federal testing) and, later, the 92G for French Government testing, by making the following changes: It was replaced by the "92 Compact L".īeretta modified the model 92SB slightly to create the 92SB-F (the "F" added to denote entry of the model in U.S. 92SB Compact (1981 – 1991), shortened barrel and slide (13-round magazine capacity).It included the changes of the 92S, added a firing pin block (thus the addition of the "B" to the name), and relocated the magazine release catch from the bottom of the grip to the lower bottom of the trigger guard.
Initially called the 92S-1 when it was specifically designed for US Air Force trials (which it won), the model name officially adopted was the 92SB. The later relocation of the magazine release button means these models (92 & 92S) cannot necessarily use later magazines, unless they have notches in both areas. This resulted in the 92S which was adopted by several Italian law enforcement and military units.
BERETTA D SPRING BARREL MANUAL
In order to meet requirements of some law enforcement agencies, Beretta modified the Beretta 92 by adding a slide-mounted combined safety and decocking lever, replacing the frame mounted manual thumb safety.
The Beretta 92 first appeared in 1976 and was designed by Carlo Beretta, Giuseppe Mazzetti and Vittorio Valle, all experienced firearms designers on the Beretta design team.Ībout 5000 copies of the first design were manufactured from 1975 to 1976.
The grip angle and the front sight integrated with the slide were also common to earlier Beretta pistols. From the M922 comes the open slide design, while the alloy frame and locking block barrel (originally from Walther P38) were first used in the M1951. The Beretta 92 pistol evolved from earlier Beretta designs, most notably the M1922 and M1951.
