Chuck D Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 Did Beretta ever offer a factory metal guide rod for the 92 ? One that will fit the 92/M9 version not just the Elite models ? If they did...where might I buy one (or two) ? Thanks in advance ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe4d Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 All the original military ones had metal guide rods and triggers, I think once the us plant was online they switched to plastic on both. While not factory Brownell's stocks several that will work fine, I installed a Wolff steel guide rod and a steel trigger along with the Wolff compression style trigger return spring, I also used a much lightened mainspring as part of an over all tune up.

Hi Joe. Where'd you get the steel trigger from ? Is it a factory part ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtielke Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 I have a Beretta USA made 92FS with factory metal parts that I bought new in the late 90's. I think the switch to plastic was sometime in the early 2000's. For metal Beretta parts: http://www.olhasso.com/PS/parts.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splashdown Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 I bought an Elite II in 2002 or 2003 and it had a steel trigger and plastic guide rod. I was fine with the guide rod the way it was. After 8k rounds it looked brand new. I think the switch to plastic triggers occurred around 2005-2006. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
