gnappi Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 (edited) Being a pack rat, I buy cool stuff I stumble on "just in case" I need it. A while ago I scored a Beretta 96D Brigadier slide, and since getting the X-Perf I wanted the slide modded with a safety cut, and decent sights to replace the dinky nite sights the Brig came with. It came in today. I have a LOT of .40 cal ammo made up with brass, and bullets, something I do not have for 9mm (zero of either brass or bullets) so for the foreseeable future I'm switching over my shooting to the new 96 and Tanfos in .40. Next , I'll dump the serrated trigger and maybe have the rail ground off and refinished. Edited July 28, 2020 by gnappi Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gnappi Posted October 26, 2020 Author Share Posted October 26, 2020 (edited) Yup, when I want to see new and shiny, I can put the 9mm slide on it But, a couple of minutes on the buffing wheel takes off some years... Edited October 27, 2020 by gnappi Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chills1994 Posted Tuesday at 07:54 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 07:54 PM 1. How many .40 cal rounds can you fit in the gun? 2. Will a M9A3 grip fit on that to give it the typical curved backstrap of a Beretta 92FS? That looks nice. You certainly caught my interest. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks Twinkie! back when I was shooting Limited Minor with a 92 Brig Inox and MecGar 20 round magazines, those same mags would hold 15 rounds of .40S&W. I am ASSuming the same 8 shots per array/port rule still applies today??? If so, starting out with 15+1 rounds of .40 doesn’t really gain you much. ASSuming you didn’t miss or did any make up shots, you would be doing a slide lock reload after the second array. (shrugs shoulders) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stony Lane Posted Thursday at 02:43 PM Share Posted Thursday at 02:43 PM Taran Tactical CZ+4 base pads will give you 16+1 with the Mec-Gar 15-round Beretta 96 magazines. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
