Beretta 92F

The Beretta 92F is now the U.S. Military sidearm. Originally made in Italy, it is now built in a modern Beretta factory in Maryland.

It is a modern double action, staggered magazine 9mm., replacing the Colt Government .45. This pistol has been given wide publicity through the Armed Forced contract competition and has been very successful in the civilian market, as well. This well made, well designed handgun is certain to be around for a long time.

With a double stacked magazine, the grip frame on this pistol is somewhat bulky. Thus, we keep the grips slim in the three standard styles (Classic Panel, Finger Grooves, and Ultima Panel) we make, and we have recently introduced a Slim version in our Classic Panel style.

For the Classic Panel and Finger Grooves style grips, we offer customized grips: oval inlays and scrimshaw.

The oval inlays make the Beretta 92F grip stand out. The wood and scrimshaw artwork on the inlay contrast well with the blue and stainless frame. We can scrimshaw most of our designs on the ovals, as well as initials and other logos. The oval inlays are traditionally on the right side only, but upon request, we can inlay the left side only, or both sides.

The broad panel of the 92F grips allows and excellent surface for scrimshaw. The detail can be expanded and the effect of the artwork has added impact. It also allows the widest possible selection of designs for personalizing the pistol. Any of the designs available for the 1911 Government (please see scrimshaw gallery in the 1911 section) can be scrimshawed on the Beretta 92F , as well.
