Thanks there Chills, I will go to the beretta forum to find out the best gear for my beretta. However its only a temporary thing, im planning on getting an STI as soon as I get out of basic. As for the painting idea I think that that might help alot for my "pizza" gun (got quite a chuckle out of that).
as for my location im in the beautiful gunshine state, Ft. Lauderdale area
