rvb Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 My old practice gun decided I didn't really need to practice today... I was about 150 rounds into the 400 I took to the local indoor range. I had finished a timing drill and some bill drills and had moved on to shooting groups at 10 yds when the shots started impacting higher and higher, yet I was calling the shots all center of the group. Then it started binding up going into battery... then finally it locked up tight. really tight. My first assumption was the locking block, but looking from the top the block appeared ok. Then I thought maybe the hammer release lever broke since I had one of those break on another gun once and it similarly locked the gun up. Upon closer inspection, I found this..... Now I'm not at all upset this happened. I feel I got my money's worth out of the gun. I KNOW I have put over 100k rounds through this gun, probably closer to 120k... and it was a 10yr old police trade in when I bought it. I'll try to find a cheap barrel to put back in it to keep it running for a little while... -rvb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigTinVA Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 Why not send it in to Beretta and see what they will do for you instead of just throwing a cheap barrel in it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Five of Clubs Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Aftermarket barrels are easy to come by and may be an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
