I disagree with whoever said they are not any more accurate than other 9's. I have a 92fs and am able to hit shotgun shells at 25 feet easily. Hitting 2 inch targets at 25 feet and keeping the group within that circle isn't a problem with practice. I lined up x3 shotgun shells at 25 feet to show my wife and made them all "jump" with 3 shots..1 for each shell. This is not an exaggeration. I get tired of hearing bad reports on Berettas. When they were first introduced( many, many years ago)....there were problems......but it was fixed.....period. Mine NEVER jams. I had two Jams when breaking the gun in in the 1st 200 rounds.....but never had one again. I have fired thousands of rounds through it ,without a hiccup. I also have a 45 Ruger P345, and a 40 XD. The Beretta is still the most accurate pistol "out of the box" I have ever shot. My uncles's 45 ACP Kimber ($1600.00) is very accurate also..... but not more so, than my Beretta.
