What is your favorite beretta gun. Mine is a 390 sliver mallard 12ga.

My Beretta 96D. It's a little chunky across the back end, but has nice curves, is well mannered, and absolutely dependable. I have to admit that although I was not a fan of the Double Action Only at first, the trigger on this gun has smoothed considerably with use, and I now prefer it for defensive use. I've grown used to not having to mess with a safety.

My favorite Beretta is my 96G Elite IA. Vertical grip, integral accessory rail, brigadier slide, forward slide serrations, beveled magazine well and skeletonized hammer. For my needs it doesn't get much better than that. Wish you would have broken that into Berettat gun types as I'm pretty proud of my Xtrema shotgun as well.

Mine is my Beretta Storm 9mm carbine. I've owned several of the 92 pistols, inlcuding a compact and an Elite II, but the carbine takes the cake. The gun is amazingly simple, and very accurate to boot. I have probably 500 rounds through mine now, and I love it!

Great -- spell check, that's something i'll need a lot.....

Anyway I've had my Berreta 96 for about 3 yrs now. I've added a lot of extras. It went back to Berreta for a trigger job, came back at 3.83#'s, very nice. I added a rubber grips from Hogue, stainless steel guide, several sets of springs for different rounds, replaced rear site with set of adjustable from Millet -- Precisionsights.com Seymour,CT06483, very good sites, a separate stainless barrel in .357sig just for fun. In addition I also bought a 22cal. from Ciener, it's a lot of fun, not to accurate. I also bought half a dozen Uncle Mikes holsters just to find out what kind I liked. final settled on a Fobus BR2 LH. A number of 12rnd clips, etc. I carry CorBon loads for concealed. hand load others.

All in all it's a bit bulky but so am I. I carry it concealed, not a problem, I am very large

This is an easy one: My present favorite is my CX4 Storm in .45... my future one will be that Gold Rush Carbine in .45LC.

My 92F. It is one of the most reli.. no make that THE most reliable auto handgun I've got. It was promoted to NIGHT STAND GUN. I have put empty cases in the magazine and it feeds them. I can't do that with my 1911 or 4006 or my...

Mine is my Silver Pidgeon III Sporting. Once I was able to get the stock to fit that is. Before that I was ready to wrap it around a tree!

Downeaster · « **Reply #17 on:** August 23, 2006, 08:16:39 AM »

The only Beretta I own is the Px4 Storm in 9mm. I recently bought it and only put 100 rounds through it. I have to say that I really like it so far.

:)My Silver Hawk SxS is #1 but I like my 96 a lot also !!!!!!!!

Kaimi · « **Reply #19 on:** December 06, 2006, 11:10:23 AM »

The handgun is a Model 89 Target accurized by Alex Hamilton and for shotguns it is my 686 with Brileys tubes and case.

OOPS, almost forgot I once had an older Model 84 that was sweeeeeeet!

I had a mod 76 for yrs and all my buddies lusted for it,then alas 1 winter in Prudoe Bay the beer stash wavered and the 76 was part of the replenishment bargain. Tha tragic thing it was stolen shortly after that. I'm in the market for 1 now if someone has a shooter they would part with. Will trade for Alaska type stuff if anyone is interested or will simply buy one if thats easier.

WVMikeyC · « **Reply #21 on:** December 12, 2006, 03:56:36 AM »

Mine would have to be the 92FS in 9mm, functions flawlessly, shoots very with a variety of ammunition, very fun to shoot.

S.S. · « **Reply #22 on:** December 12, 2006, 06:34:07 AM »

Model 1951 in 9mm Parabellum.
It is the great grand daddy of the model 92 and probably
the best handgun ever produced by them.

A few years ago I divested myself of most of my firearms- and decided to purchase just ONE handgun, semi-automatic, that I really liked and desired. I later saw a Beretta 92 FS Bilennium pistol (one of 2000, world wide) and after several admiring trips to the gun store- I purchased this beautiful handgun- and it remains my favorite.

As I felt I could not (or did not want to) shoot this collector piece- I later purchased a Beretta 92 FS Brigadier Inox, which I do shoot and also consider a 'favorite'- as I also do my Beretta 92SB Compact M- and my latest acquisition a little Beretta .32 acp. Tomcat 30-32 Inox.

Thanks to "Beretta" I now possess more firearms (not all Beretta's) than I ever had before- and I will never "divest" ... again.

A 20ga Model 686 Onyx, with the shiny blued receiver & 26" mobil-choked bbls. It was the sweetest, lightest bird gun, I ever tried - until it grew feet, one night!

I looked for a long while, for an identical replacement, but I had to settle for what turned out to be an extremely close second - a 20ga BL-3 w/26" sheet-choked bbls.

I enjoy shooting my Beretta 686 Onyz 12 gauge with 28" barrels that also has full length inserts for 20, 28, and .410 gauges..... also has matching 30" sporting 12 gauge barrels... have the full set (7) screw in chokes for the 12 gauge barrels. Have shot around 30,000 rounds through it.... has been back to Beretta once for new hinge pins and to have the matching 30" sporting barrels fitted.
