Beretta Single-Stack Question

[seeker_two]

Just out of curiosity....

Will the 92-M series Berettas use the same magazines as the Modelo 1951's & the Helwans?

This question came out of a discussion I overheard at a gun store this weekend.

Thanks in advance...

not entirely sure, but if you haven't already, you might want to post this question over at www.berettaforum.net

Beretta 1951 has the magazine catch on the lower left grip panel. The 92 M has its catch behind the trigger guard in the American position as actually introduced on the Luger. So even if the tubes were the same (And I don't say they are.) the notch is not in the same location.
