EliteNoire99 Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 (edited) I built a Beretta 92X Performance Race Gun with all of the Toni System components and cannot find a holster that works because of the picatinny rail red mount. It raises the front of the handgun. I've tried Ghost Evo One, Double Alpha and Guga Ribas holsters. I’ve called Toni several times, but no one ever pickups the customer service line. I’m on hold 30+ minutes each time. I also sent several emails. Any thoughts, suggestion, help would be greatly appreciated. Thank everyone!

Ludde Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 I believe that JJ Racaza uses a Guga Ribas holster when he shoots his Beretta open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EliteNoire99 Posted August 15, 2022 Author Share Posted August 15, 2022 Yes, I purchased the Guga Ribas holster. JJ's holster and/or gun must be modified. Looking at their manual and online videos I am unable to get the gun to fit unloaded with the hammer down. I sent an email to Guga Ribas support, but I have yet to receive a reply. I was looking at JJ's trigger in a photo and it appears that his gun is modified to be SAO. With the hammer down, his trigger is set far to the rear like it would be in the SAO ready to fire position. I can get the handgun set in the holster in this position. Thank you, Dwight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boomstick303 Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Are you shooting open minor with that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EliteNoire99 Posted August 15, 2022 Author Share Posted August 15, 2022 No, I'm shooting open major. Although the 92X Performance comes +P+ from the factory, I ordered Jarvis barrels for the guns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludde Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 You could ask JJ directly via a dm on instagram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EliteNoire99 Posted August 15, 2022 Author Share Posted August 15, 2022 (edited) I tried to contact JJ in the past and he didn't respond. Heck, even when trying to register for his class it 3-months for a reply. Anyway... I believe I have figured out my issue with my Guga Ribas holster fit issue. When I built my Race Gun, I put in the Red Aluminum Competition "S" triggers. I just now looked at JJ's build again and I see he has the Beretta vertical (Straight) triggers. I can get the holster to work with my Race Gun in SA Mode. But the trigger is too far forward in DA Mode for the locking mechanism to activate. I just ordered the Beretta vertical (Straight) trigger. It should be here by Friday. The rear geometry of the trigger converts the pistol to Single Action only (while filing it away it will return DA/SA). This is a Race Gun, so it will only be used in SA mode. If I need DA/SA I will just put back in the standard trigger. I will swap out the triggers to see if this does the job and get back to the group. Thanks for the feedback!

Stony Lane Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 How did you find a slide racker? I've wondered if a 9x21 barrel would be good for a Beretta Open gun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EliteNoire99 Posted August 8, 2023 Author Share Posted August 8, 2023 (edited) Hello, I had the slide racker fabricated because I couldn't find one to purchase. It was not cheap, but I love it. I had my barrel made by Jarvis Barrels to withstand the pressure of the open cartridge. I hope this helps. All the best!

Fishbreath Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 I 3D-printed some parts to turn an old Race Master Glock insert into a 92X-with-optic insert: There's the trigger hook thingy, of course, but also a piece that narrows the trigger channel and rises up to shield the trigger, since the gun sits pretty high to allow the optic mount to clear the holster body. Happy to share the files if anyone wants them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EliteNoire99 Posted October 17, 2023 Author Share Posted October 17, 2023 Hello All, I wanted to provide an update on running my Beretta 92X Performance Open Racegun in the 2023 USPSA season. I went the entire season with no issues whatsoever up until Area 8 on August 28th. The locking block broke ear broke, which is one of the downsides to the 92 series. In the future I will inspect and/or replace the block every quarter. I did go 6-months with no issues using Atlantic Arms 145gr Major JHP & Classic ammo. All the best!

Hey Joe, no this was just the gun; that mount may cause an issue but the was the holster is, there is some room to have some stuff underneath the rail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EliteNoire99 Posted January 16 Author Share Posted January 16 Hello, I ended up purchasing the Guga Ribas holster and it works great with my Toni System Open Rail Optic mount! I highly recommend it.
