Well, I took three of my four Berettas to the range today, namely my 92, my 92 Compact and my CX4. Sorry for the shitty picture:
This was also the first time I shot my CX4 since getting the Sierra Pappa trigger and hammer replacement (steel instead of plastic) and a steel guide rod (also replacing a plastic part). It's like night and day. The trigger pull is lighter and not terribly crisp but a WHOLE lot more predicable than the original setup. Oh yeah, I also put on an oversized charging handle from Galloway Precision (I was sick of racking my knuckles on the sight mount with the original). This one is also definitely a keeper.
The full-sized 92 was there for comedy relief. Ok, I lie....I actually put in a new trigger spring and metal guide rod in it and fired a few rounds to make sure it still runs (it does).
Mamma Mia!
This is the first time I've shot my Compact following replacement of a bunch of parts (decocker-only, metal trigger, reduced power trigger spring, grips, D hammer spring, hammer)....I think this might be my soul gun. Recoil is about the same as the full-sized 92. I can shoot it well left handed, right handed, both hands, one hand....I was going to attempt no hands but I was wearing shoes. Anyway, it's a keeper.Eating Italian for lunch (rifle and pistol review)
