My Beretta 92G has Trijicon H3 04 night sights and after several years they are still very bright. I also have Crimson Trace laser grips installed. With 15+1 capacity, its a formidable pistol in skilled hands.

Thanks Chain. I've been traveling alot for work lately and have only had time to check the topics. Good to be back.
Fred, my Kimber cost nearly 1500.00, and I won't be buying another one. I called the factory about the rust and the guy I spoke with said I needed to take better care of it. You believe that?

I have guns I paid 1/3 of that price for that have never shown a spec of rust. Kimber does make a nice looking firearm though. It's a shame that they don't spend the extra couple bucks to use stainless steel.

That's a nice looking Beretta Chain. I've fired a 92 chambered in .40 and it was a sweet shooter. Yours is a 9mm right?

That correct. I help out part-time at the local gun shop. It was a 1 of 25 that I hand picked from a Colorado Police Department batch purchase.

Goes to show, even a squirrel can find a nut.
I was lucky is all. Just at the right place at the right time.
The pistols in the best condition went quickly at $350.
The others where sold at a gun show a month later.
