triplesinglestack Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 I was looking at a Taurus pt92, just to have as a backup, for my primary production gun Beretta 92fs, is this a good idea? or should I pay a few bucks more for another beretta? also could I install a beretta mag catch into the taurus and have it accept my beretta mags? thanks Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueridge Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Personally (and I have done this) I would get another Beretta rather than buy the Taurus. While I have no problem with the quality of the Taurus, I am more confident in the Beretta. The Taurus (as you likely know) is made from an older design of the Beretta that was sold to Taurus by Beretta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuJudge Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 I'd go with a second Beretta also, if only because of the controls all being in the same place. The Taurus safety and magazine release are in a different place. I have a couple Taurus magazines, and they won't fit my Berettas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chills1994 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 just to piggy back on what NuJudge said...you would have to carry an extra set of mags specifically for the Taurus. and depending on the match, I highly doubt that a MD at a major match would let you use the Taurus as a back up. I have two 96's and two 92's for that reason. I have never had to use a backup gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulm540 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Waht you save in getting a taurus, you will spend in mags. Taurus mags are expensive. I'd get another beretta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triplesinglestack Posted May 1, 2011 Author Share Posted May 1, 2011 thanks, I bought another Beretta....and agree I already have a dozen or so Mags, it is the smart choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShipWreck Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 thanks, I bought another Beretta....and agree I already have a dozen or so Mags, it is the smart choice. Which model? Just a regular 92FS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShipWreck Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Very cool. I have duplicates of several 92 variants. Great guns! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
