    Late last year, I moved from Indy to Terre Haute so the Noblesville store would be about a 2 hour drive, each way. And that is the closest store. now how do I convince the wife to go to Noblesville?!?
    That explains why you can't find anything lol. It's Terre Haute and your next to commie land.

    Clarksville, Hammond, Noblesville, or Portage...

    I can't say i've ever seen one.
    Closest thing I have ever seen is a 951 on Gunbroker in 7.65 Para, but it isn't worth what he wants for it.

    Tell me about it! But she is well worth the move! I called to see if the lgs could match the price and he commented that Bass Pro's price is their cost so, no, they can't match it.

    I'm going to get it tomorrow if you don't want it. I collect state police guns and don't have one from them yet
    Grab it then, I know you like them.
    One thing I noticed about the gun, I think it has been slide swapped at some point. I ran the serial and it comes back as an 92FS, despite the slide marking saying 92F. I can only think that may have been for the trijicon sights on the 92F gun

    check out the NOPD gun too.

    I've been toying with the idea of the new APX A1 Full Size but no one seems to have one in stock. I don't want to order one until I see how it feels in my hand.
    I just ran across this too.

    $349.95

    Resistance is Futile INGO, you will all soon sell your 1911s and Glocks and buy Berettas.. we however do not accept SIG converts, they will instead perish.

    Thanks for the links. And thanks for letting me know about the swapped slide. I'm going to call them and see if I can get a better price. The NOPD 92 will have to wait for my next paycheck. I hope it is still there

    I should have mentioned the Beretta SN lookup is back.

    Some Caveats, its pointed at a slightly different database then last time. From what people have figured out, its pointed now at a Beretta USA database, and not an Italy factory database. Some older serials are not coming up, and the born on dates shown for Italy factory pistols are actually import dates.
    Also even if you have a newer gun, unless it was Beretta that imported it, it won't show. (Important for some recent PD trade ins from overseas)

    And not just the small ones, the big ones too, and odd ones.

    Anyone else have the Beretta obsession?

    I do need help, I bought a polartec fleece to go with all the Beretta Pistols I have ordered.

    In just couple of months. I have purchased.

    New in box 92FS, Made in Italy, 2017
    3032 Tomcat
    951 with the 1975/1976 only Alloy (M1951)
    21A Bobcat Two Tone (Gun store had it listed as an INOX)
    85BB Cheetah.
    92F Compact

    Send help!

    I have a similar issue. Jet fire. Model 418. Inox bobcat. Model 71 with thread protector. Italian 92 with heel mag release. If I saw a .32 model 70 for the right price I’d probably have to get it too. Lol. It’s a real issue.

    If you already are addicted do NOT watch this. It’s a trigger.
