The classic Beretta Model 92 9mm, known as the M9 to our military and as the Model 96 when chambered for the .40 Smith & Wesson round, is an endearing pistol. People like master gunsmith Bill Wilson and master instructor Ken Hackathorn have proclaimed it the most reliable of service pistols. It is match-winning accurate, as Ernest Langdon proved winning overall top score at the IDPA National Championships multiple times with his 92G.
