I know that these are a bit 'Marmite', but I spotted this early gloss finish Beretta 92FS on AGF and couldn't resist it as it's ever so close to mint condition. It's a proper chunk of metal weighing in at 1.3kg (!) Unlike many of the glossy Umarex's I've seen, the finsh is still deep black and hasn't 'bloomed', it looks like it's hardly been used. This will go nicely with my similar aged 586.    |

Perhaps we should move it to the "revolver" section...
...I'll get my coat.

Nice purchase. One of my favourite. Got two myself, my year 2000 limited edition one has been used regularly for 22 years without a fault.

In terms of build quality I think these guns are at the top of the air pistol chart. I have a 586 which is 20 years old, has been used regularly (and abused sometimes  ). It has never had any service or replacement parts and is as accurate now as the day that I bought it. |

nikvanorton you are a man after my own heart. I love these pistols, the Beretta 92FS in this same shiny finish was my first air pistol/replica and it will forever have a place in my heart!   PS, before anyone takes the piss I only had that massive Weihrauch silencer available to test the mod adapter with 😂
