Modernizing the M9

[Darqhelmet]

There are companies that will drill 92FS white dot sight for fiber rod. I think Jarvis does it

Edit: https://jarvis-custom.com/product/beretta-92-fiber-optic-front-sight-install/

Yes, that is an option. But it’s also gone poorly and if you don’t like fiber front sights it doesn’t fix the FS/M9/etc slide

I took the left grip off and the slide was easier to rack. Re installed it carefully and it looks more flush now. Still stiff overall but now easier to rack the slide more like normal

I changed the slide to 92x, added the extended mag release, added wilson combat basepads for my mags, thin bakelite grips.
It shoots well and air-rackable

you’re going to need to slightly file/sand the grips. The rest is most likely new gun to be broken in.

I paid for the slide like that almost as much as for the gun itself

Yup. It was crazy.

Yup. It was crazy.

Any benefits to it?

Optic ready with dovetail front sight, that’s about it

Those are a big deal though.

 

[No_glonks]

Agree, that’s

Those are a big deal though.

and that's why I paid $550 for 92x slide
