New Beretta 90TWO

SPECIAL HANDGUNS…FOR SPECIAL TASKS
In a dangerous world, law enforcement professionals need every advantage. Guns that are rugged, reliable and safe…with the potent firepower needed for high-risk encounters, resistant to fatigue, to the worst conditions and to the years.
The new Beretta 90two semiautomatic pistol incorporates new and unique benefits while   maintaining all of the advanced performance and safety features that have made the 92 pistol series an international legend.
The new Beretta 90two features a brand new look with innovative lines and rounded contours that permit comfortable carry and a smooth and rapid extraction from the holster.
Designed with extreme care in every detail, the Beretta 90two is complete with a large array of safety features. Each one is specifically studied to take into account the ergonomics, design and to obtain the best accessibility to the hand that grips the pistol. The interchangeability and modularity of the components, together with the integral accessory rail and the removable grip unit, make this pistol ready to meet any operational requirement.
The Beretta 90two is available in the traditional single/double action version. All feature new higher capacity magazines in the 9mm x 19 Parabellum (Luger) and .40 S&W calibers.

New Beretta 90TWO

A BRAND NEW LOOK WITH INNOVATIVE LINES
The newly designed frame
of 90two pistol ensures trouble-free insertion and holster extraction, thanks to its rounded and truly snag-free surfaces. Inside the frame, near the disassembly lever, a metallic recoil buffer reduces the impact of the slide assembly against the frame during the shooting cycle. By redistributing the stresses, the recoil buffer increases the service life of the firearm.
Trigger guard is also rounded to ensure, when firing with two hands, the correct positioning of the supporting hand.

Integral accessory rail. Located forward and under the barrel, the rail is machined integral to the receiver and allows the mounting of light and laser accessories. A practical accessory rail cover (which can be mounted when an accessory is not used) protects the rail from accidental impacts and covers its corners to facilitate the insertion and extraction of the pistol from holsters.

New Beretta 90TWO

Newly designed anatomical slide and slide catch. The sides of the slide are smoothed and snag-proofed easing the insertion and removal of the pistol from its holster. The rear transversal serrations on the slide allow for a firm grip even in moist conditions, facilitating slide operation and safety control. The slide catch (slide stop) has been redesigned to conform to the unique lines of the slide and frame. The slide, and other metal parts such as the slide catch, the disassembly latch, the safety lever (if present) and the sights are coated with Bruniton, a material that provides superior corrosion resistance and reduced  friction.

New Beretta 90TWO

Ergonomic and modular grip unit. The new removable single-piece grip allows for quick and easy grip replacement. An optional slim accessory grip is available to better adapt to smaller hands. The rear upper part of the grip is precisely curved and relieved for a firmer, more comfortable grip and to snugly fit the shooter’s hand. Both the front and the rear part of the integral grip boast a comfortable scaled surface that, not only has great aesthetic impact, but considerably improves grip, even in moist conditions.

New Beretta 90TWO

Skeletonized hammer. The distinctive hammer is significantly faster and lighter (models Type F and G).

New Beretta 90TWO

Interchangeable, luminescent Superluminova® sights. The high definition 3-dot sight system is coated in Superluminova®, a special photosensitive material ensuring long lasting luminescence after short exposure to any kind of light. Rear and front sights can be replaced with other types of sights of different height or with Tritium night sights, upon request.
The unique design of the sights has resulted in a 5mm (.20 in.) increase of sight radius when compared to the classic Model 92 series allowing a more precise alignment target shooting.

New Beretta 90TWO

Higher capacity magazine. The Beretta 90two pistols have an easily removable, high capacity staggered magazine, that allows for rapid reloading and extended use of the firearm in special operating situations:

cal. 9mmx19 - staggered magazine with 10, 15 or 17 rounds*
cal. .40 S&W - staggered magazine with 10, 12 rounds*

New Beretta 90TWO

*Consult local authorities for magazine capacity restrictions that may apply in your locale. For some markets and in compliance to local legal restrictions, extended magazine bottoms can be applied to increase the magazine capacity to 20 rounds for caliber 9mmx19.

Simple field stripping, cleaning and re-assembly. The pistol is designed for extremely quick and simple field stripping and to avoid casual or involuntary disassembly. Reassembly is easy and accidental misassembly of parts is prevented by the distinctive design. The slide locks automatically when it passes beyond the rear section of the frame.

New Beretta 90TWO

A LARGE ARRAY OF SAFETY FEATURES

90two Type F. Double/single action. Ambidextrous manual safety on the slide with hammer decocking function, automatic firing pin block safety.
90two Type G. Double/single action. Ambidextrous manual lever on the slide with hammer decocking function with the return of the lever to the firing position, automatic firing pin block safety.

Loaded Chamber Indicator. The loaded chamber indicator is a small red tab (extractor) that protrudes further from the slide when a round is in the chamber. The tab is located on the right side of the pistol’s slide, near the cartridge chamber, and can be both seen and felt, allowing the user to check the chamber at night by feel or during the day by checking for the increased protrusion of the red tab.

New Beretta 90TWO

Automatic firing pin block safety. The Beretta 90two pistols have a blocking device that prevents forward movement of the firing pin unless the trigger is completely pulled.

Beretta 92. The Ultimate Pistol.

The Ultimate Pistol.
It’s not an official title, but it perfectly describes the Beretta 92FS.
Selected by a multi-national roster of defense and law enforcement organizations, each pistol must pass a battery of more then 3,000 quality control check and measure that includes complete interchangeability of parts before leaving the factory… and proven in the field in countless defensive confrontations, the 92FS is in all respects the “ultimate”.

92 FS. A legendary Firearm.
The most tested and trusted personal defense weapon in history.
The 92FS, designated M9 by the U.S. Military, not only meets or exceeds all U.S. Military testing guidelines, it totally rewrites them.

Chamber Loaded Indicator
Beretta 92

Beretta U.S.A. Reliability and Durability Statistics for the Beretta 9mm Pistol
• The average reliability of all M9 pistols tested at Beretta U.S.A. is 17,500 rounds without a stoppage.
• During one test of twelve pistols fired at Beretta U.S.A. before Army supervision, Beretta-made M9 pistols shot 168,000 rounds without a single malfunction.
• The Beretta 9mm pistol was the most reliable of all pistols tested in the 1984 competition which resulted in the award of the M9 contract to Beretta.
• Two-thirds of all M9 pistols endurance tested at Beretta U.S.A. fired 5,000 rounds without a single mal function or, at most, with only one malfunction.
• The average durability of Beretta M9 slides is over 35,000 rounds, the point at which U.S. Army testing ceases.
• The average durability of M9 frames is over 30,000 rounds. The average durability of M9 locking blocks is 22,000 rounds.

Precise, Safe, Reliable.
92 Series Pistols are semi-automatics and operate on the short recoil, delayed locking block system, which yields a faster cycle time and delivers exceptional accuracy and reliability.
Each features a lightweight, forged frame made form aircraft-quality aluminum alloy.
All 92 series pistols feature unique safety refinements.
On FS models, the manual safety also functions as a decocking lever.
A firing pin block secures the firing pin.
The chamber loaded indicator is visible or can be felt by touch.

Four Operating Systems.
Beretta offers a choice of four operating systems, each with specific safety options:
FS - Double/single action, external ambidextrous manual safety, decocking lever, trigger bar disconnect, rotating firing pin striker, firing pin block device.
DS - Double/single action, external ambidextrous manual safety, trigger bar disconnect, rotating firing pin striker, firing pin block device.
D - Double action only with no safety lever (“slick slide”), firing pin block device.
G - Double/single action, external ambidextrous decocking lever, rotating firing pin striker, trigger bar disconnect, firing pin block device.
All models feature a “chamber loaded” indicator.

 

Beretta 92

1) Open Slide Design. Open top slide virtually eliminates jamming or stovepiping. Allows the user to load the chamber one cartridge at a time should the magazine be lost or damaged.
2) No Glare Finish. Beretta’s exclusive Bruniton non-reflective matte black finish is a superior corrosion resistant coating.
3) Automatic Firing Pin Block. The front part of the firing pin is blocked from any forward movement until the trigger is pulled completely back. Even if the pistols falls and strikes the ground, muzzle-down, the firing pin will not strike the primer.
4) Ambidextrous Manual Safety. Easily accessible by the thumb of a right- or left-handed shooter, it is spring loaded so it’s either positively “on” or positively “off.” The safety lever on the slide also functions as the pistol’s decocking lever. When pushed down, the rear part of the firing pin (striker) is rotated out of alignment with the front part of the firing pin. (Does not apply to D or G Models).
5) Sure, Firm Grip. The front and back of the grip are grooved, and the grip frame is flared slightly at the base to enhance pointability and control.
6) Reversible Magazine Release Button. Positioned next to the trigger guard for either right- or left-handed shooters. Allows rapid reloading. Magazine drops clear when released.
7) Light Aluminum Frame with Combat-Style Trigger Guard. The trigger guard is squared off and grooved for a firm grip using one or two hands, even when wearing gloves.
8) Disassembly Latch. Conveniently located to simplify field stripping and maintenance, the latch makes the 92 FS one of the easiest guns to disassemble.
9) Unique Ultra-Safe Design. The safety levers on the slide also function as the pistol’s decocking levers. When pushed down, the rear part of the firing pin (striker) is rotated out of alignment with the front part of the firing pin.
