New member to my Beretta family

Last night, I picked up a 92FS, 9mm Inox, mfg in Italy, at the LGS. My wife is not as happy with my new acquisition as I am --said something about me being nuts for buying another gun

Congrats
That's one gun I would really like to have one day. My brother has one but will not get off of it. My son and I each have one in black, Italian made and they are nice but I still would like an Inox.

You must not have any kids to be collecting guns that recklessly.

I wouldn't say that's "reckless", since that's 18 guns (if you subract off the multiple revolvers). I just upped my collection to 6 guns in 9 months, and I'm still in college. I don't have a girlfriend, much less a wife, and definitely don't have kids and don't have any planned in the near future. Now, when I make more (hopefully) when I get my degree, I'll spend the same as my small salary now, as well as save (I net around $10,000 a year as is).

Now, the 92FS Inox - I saw a guy at the range that had one, and I've got it bookmarked under my "buy one of these when a deal comes along" set of bookmarks.

those 92fs Inox are big weapons hard to carry but I can't think of anything eles I would want next to the bed or at the range wife got me mine after they took our beretta aways years ago and replace them with sigs. I wanted a beretta so she got one for me and it was her ideal to get the Inox and i'm glad she did.

be safe

I wouldn't say that's "reckless",

I used that term because I am jealous of the collection.

Collecting guns and shooting are my hobbies,

and I admit that I rarely meet a gun I don't like. My children are all grown and out of the house and I keep all but two of my guns in the safe. My nightstand gun is the XD45C with an insight XT1 procyon light and Tru Glo TFO's, and my pocket pistol is the Kahr PM9.

My wife would probably agree with the term reckless because of cost, but after 40 years of marriage she knows I am not going to stop collecting or shooting. So, she quietly tolerates my hobby, and actually contributes to it on special occasions.

You need to add another .22, like a Beretta 87 target, it's a sweet pistol. Works and handles like a single action service pistol... with a 2 stage trigger.

May I ask what you paid for that gem?

Along with the venerable HK P7, the Beretta 92FS remains my favorite 9mm of all time. I've got a compact in my car, I have one such as yours for the range, and I've got this variation protecting the home:
