Page 2 of 6 - Beretta 92FS Reviews

Realistic look, could very easily get you taken down at gun point. As a Marine Corps Veteran, who carried this as a side arm, I bought this for use in parades and other events where I may be in uniform but do not want to carry an actual pistol. Sadly it will not fit the serpa holster I have but it does fit in the Bianci M12 holster.

Add laynard loop

Gorgeous gun! Excellent quality again by Umarex. Very heavy, solid, accurate and realistic. A lot of fun to shoot.

Not a thing. Some folks don't care for the plastic grips, personally I like the feel and grip.

Higher price but you get what you pay for! Pyramid has been excellent to deal with!

This is an awesome handgun. Its heavy and feels great in the hand. The pellets seems to glide out if the barrel!

It has the look and feel of the real pistol. My son has this gun in 9mm and we put them side by side. Very difficult to tell them apart. The airgun is actually much heavier than the real deal. I have much more experience with real firearms, but a 3" group at 20 yards seems accurate to me.

Take the white writing off the gun. Why does it have to say, "This is not a toy... dangerous..." etc. It's in the manual. If they have to put that garbage on the gun, at least tone it back to gray. Not white. The sights need work. The front sight needs a white dot and it wouldn't hurt on the rear as well. The are impossible to see in low light. The Allen wrench to adjust the rear sight stripped right out and I had to use another I had at home. Was it made out of aluminum? I would also like to see some kind of elevation adjustment.

This gun is very heavy. Significantly heavier that the real 9mm. I think it's too heavy to holster on my waist so I'll need to buy a shoulder holster. It is a fun gun to shoot and is actually nicer than I had expected.

Everything. I've had this pistol ever since the first ones came out. It's very reliable. It's accurate as far as CO2 pistols go. It's great shooting to about 15 feet. Depending on the temperature; I've got 50-70 shots out of it before the accuracy started to drop off.

Nothing.

It's not a blow-back action. Single or double action only. I use it for target practice by cocking the hammer back every time as the Berettas that I've owned were the time that cocked the hammer every time the slide came back. Nevertheless, this pistol is a lot of fun to shoot indoors or out.

Likes. . . . .Looks & feel, Size, weight, metal build, changeable grips, co2 load, accuracy.

Add three dots on sights, secure slide system so magazine doesn't eject out and fall to grown, redesign slide to prevent possible damage to screw when opening to load/unload magazine. Lower price a bit.

Nice pistol, very realistic. Not a toy. Experiment with pellets, preferably non pointed to find best fit and performance. Buy extra magazines. Can get about 8 magazines of strong shots and a few more with lesser velocity.

I shoot a lot of "regular" pistols and found this a good bad weather alternative. Nice weight, super easy loading and easily adjustable sights.

Trigger isn't great, something I asked about before purchasing.

Likes. . . .realistic appearance, co2 loading system, single action, decent accuracy (need more shooting), nice balance in spite of the weight.

Not much. . . .if anything, a bit lighter.

Jury is still out to be 100% conclusive in review. Wondering if I received a used gun (scratches, power seems to drop noticeably after first few shots). Not sure if it's normal for this gun or not. 7gr pellets seem to perform the best. Allow some time with this gun to get used to it, trying different things (free standing or sitting without a rest: with a rest: different distances from target: etc) to get the best performance possible. Read reviews before purchase. Will update if shooting improves and I decide to keep. Jury still out. . . . . .

I purchased this to help improve my handling and accuracy with the real thing. Improvement is mixed and/or difficult to determine. This is my second copy. The first failed <100 pellets. It felt stiff from the beginning. This one is smooth. To the hand it is nearly indistinguishable from the real 92FS. (Don't let anyone carry it in public. You could get shot!) Clip system is ingenious allowing multiple shoots before reload. Buy extra clips. With 5 or 6 you can use up a CO2 cartridge. Max on a CO2 cartridge in 90F weather, steady shooting though not waiting 10 seconds between shots is about 50 pellets. Double action is a joke, but the single action pull and release is not bad. Pellet can hang when CO2 gets low. Not much warning and a pain to clear.

Sights sux! Come on Umarex! A $250 pistol with black on black on black sight to target? Even the US Military isn't that dumb! At least provide the 3 white dot "tactical" sighting aid. Rear site only adjustable for windage. Umarex, just how much more would it cost to make it fully adjustable. $5.00? Accuracy can only be obtained with "Kentucky Windage." Takes a bit to learn and hard to replicate. Still I can get 2" - 3" groups at 10 meters though there is nearly always a flyer. No documentation enclosed.

Tried all sorts of "pistol" pellets with variable results including some of JSB and H&N's best. Hobby and JSB 8.44 gr "Exact" seem to be the best. I've also done well with a large unnamed can of Gamo pellets which was a surprise. Stop shooting before you run low on CO2. Jambs are a pain. I hate to waste the charge, but there's a fair amount left after it will no longer shoot. Use pellet oil and tighten the thumbscrew up real snug before closing the butt door that pierces the cartridge. Crosman seems to work fine.

If you just want a replica, this is a nice job. As an aid to improve one's accuracy with the real thing, it's hard to tell. Fun to shoot though.

Oh, carefully check your pellet cartridges. On both this pistol and Umarex's 586 S&W I found one cartridge with over size holes.

Hard to give this an outstanding thumbs up, but if Umarex would pull its head out and put decent sights on their replicas, they would be much more fun to shoot.

Pistol looks and feels like the real thing.

Better sites for the price.

When opening the slide to access the chamber the 8 round magazine can easily fall to the ground.
