Butch Cassidy posted:These days, they are mostly known for their full-sized family of service pistols based on the 92FS, but they have a long history of rifle production, medium-frame pistols, pocket pistols, and crafting drat fine shotguns.  1201FP - Beretta's less-expensive version of the Benelli M1S90. In fact, many parts made for the Benelli will fit on the 1201FP with little to no modifications. Mine has a large bolt handle, oversize safety and a Speedfeed IV-S pistol-grip stock. I don't know what years had which options (  ), but it was available with 18" or 20" barrels, pistol-grip (not PGO) or traditional stocks, and adjustable rifle-style or ghost-ring sights. From what I've read, some magazines only hold five 2.75" shells. My version will hold six 2.75" shells in the tube, one in the chamber, and you can "ghost load" another shell between the closed bolt and the shell carrier.I think the 1201FP would make an excellent entry-to-mid-level shotgun for 3-gun. The only real downside is its barrel/magazine assembly. The magazine doesn't have an open end, so it's pretty much impossible to expand its capacity. Maybe I should call the boys at Red Jacket to  edit: Butch Cassidy posted:Why would I want a skeletonized hammer on my 92/96? If you are anal-retentive enough to want a faster lock time, the hammers are pretty easy to install, some people also just think they look cool. Definitely looks cool.  This could be placebo effect, but the trigger feels "better" with the new hammer.

I'm not sure a lighter hammer and "weaker" spring together would be a good idea. I installed the hammer on mine, and it seems like it improved the trigger pull by itself.

Took my 92 out for the first time, last weekend. I only ran one 20-rounder through it, but goddamn it fed like poo poo. The first few rounds didn't even strip from the magazine, and a couple after that paused the slide for a split second. Of course, the springs on those things are tight as poo poo (which is why I bought a lula to load them). Maybe it'll get better as it breaks in, since it fed fine after a few more rounds.

I put the skeletonized hammer in my 92, keeping the stock spring. I don't know if it's placebo effect or not, but the DA trigger pull feels smoother.

Yeah. I got the fancy wood grips, and they are too thick. They look good, though. Maybe I'll have to buy a second 92, just for display.

Factory grips should be held on with screws and lock washers. They're probably rattling becasue the washers are missing.

Beretta has their steel trigger/D spring set back in stock. https://www.berettausa.com/products...-hammer-spring/
|

Welp. The steel trigger is cut differently than the poly one, which means the trigger spring doesn't do anything when it's installed in the gun. See how right leg of the spring is on the poly trigger, and the leg on the steel trigger isn't?  When it's installed in the frame, both legs are acting on the frame of the gun. That means the trigger is free to swing and won't reset. Is there any way to get this to work, without buying one of these? Will cutting the leg of the spring and bending it to fit the steel trigger work?

If you get the D-spring/metal trigger kit (that's usually out of stock), you're going to have to get a wolff spring for the trigger. For some reason, the kit includes the regular spring that isn't compatible with the metal trigger.

Maybe it's placebo effect, but it felt like the elite hammer smoothed out the DA pull on my 92. I installed the D spring any way. Which Wolff spring did you use for the trigger?

Mine has a small spot on top, right under the front of the slide. Running the tip your fingernail over a scratch is a good way to feel gouges. If it runs over, it's fine. If it catches, you might have a problem.

I just replaced my 92FS poly trigger and spring with the steel trigger and wolff reduced-power spring, and the trigger doesn't always fully return to its DA position when dry firing. When I dry fire and cock the slide with my finger holding the trigger down, the SA reset is fine. I have a factory Beretta "D" spring and the Elite skeleton hammer, if that matters. Any ideas? Should I get the regular or extra power wolff spring?

I bought that kit, and it came with the wrong trigger spring. I also bought a wolff reduced power spring, and it wouldn't reset the trigger. Hopefully, Brownells will let me exchange it for a normal-power spring.
