Arrrrgh I'm having a terrible time deciding which model to get and I keep second guessing myself finding reasons not to get all of them.
I really want a bruniton finish. The inox ones just aren't me. Too flashy. I'm also one of those weirdos who really prefers Italian made ones. I know there's no logical reason for it, but Beretta's an Italian company and in my head it just feels right getting one made over there. (I'm the same way with Austrain Glocks)
I love the classic 92fs look. I just wish it had a dovetail on the front so I could throw some tritium sights on. If I could find a brigadier I'd probably be happy but they're few and far between from what I can see.
The 92A1 seems like it would be a good choice. I know there are still some new in box Italian ones floating around out there on Gunbroker. I'm ok with the old grip style, although I do have smalling hands that are probably better suited to the Vertecs.
I could go with a 92X variant. The grips may fit me a little better but I've been shooting the old style ones long enough that either way probably isn't a big deal. But darn it they're all made in Georgia not Italy as far as I know.
That leads me to thinking about an M9A3. They've got the tritium sights from the factory and they're italian made. That should make it an easy choice but the problem is I keep hearing horror stories about the finish flaking off.
What would you guys do?
