In 1986 I bought a PT-92 because it was on sale at $180, it became my favorite pistol....at the time I owned 4 Colt .45 ACP Government Models and a shitload of other autos and revolvers. For 20 years I shot the shit out of that gun, and it NEVER...EVER...jammed , and it's out of the box accuracy was AMAZING. I used all manner of factory JHP and my own reloads in all bullet types.....the gun was stolen 5 years ago, and I have never gotten over it's loss. Taurus makes a good gun.

Got this same gun. Got it with Pachmeyer grips, which are great if your hands are large enough to get around them. Had the mag release reversed because it is much more comfortable to release it with my right hand middle finger. My gunsmith said he has a Beretta 92 and he had not thought of this, but he was going to do the same to his gun. Safariland #7 holster fits this gun exactly. Love this gun. No failure to feed or eject. Very accurate.

Great video and review, thanks. I have one that I got in 1991, it was my first gun and is still shooting perfectly today with probably about 2k rounds through it. I have heard some criticisms of Taurus lately but, the two I own have performed flawlessly to date. My PT92 doesn't have a rail though, must have been before they added them on. Mine is super accurate because of the 5 inch barrel, I am spoiled and notice the difference when I shoot a compact.

It comes that way. It's because the slide is stainless and the frame is aluminum alloy. They mirror polish the frame and leave the slide a satin finish. I've seen a few videos on here where people have polished the slides on their PT92's to match the frame, and it looks amazing. You can get a very close match to the frame if you mirror polish the slide.

The stainless steel is a VERY high quality and when you want to lube or service it? You need NO tools and the entire gun comes apart in 3 seconds by simply pushing a locking mechanism on the frame.

THIS is how Beretta's 92 SHOULD have been designed. :) Safety on the frame. Beretta has the name and is a 500+ year old company. They do make great firearms. it's just their version of the 92...Should be changed. I wonder how Taurus was able to take Beretta's design and modify it. Then sell it as theirs. Naming it the "PT 92". This 92 is so handsome. Love the mirror finish. I wonder if you can get it in nickel. :)

If my info is correct, Taurus purchased the Beretta machines and kept the personnel in place back in the 90's after they finished a run for the Brazillian military. I assume the Brazillians wanted a version with the frame mounted safety/decocker and Beretta did it for them. So there's not much reason they couldn't sell this version as a Beretta. No idea why they stick with the slide mounted safety.

I tested this issue while out at the range and it sure enough, fired a round. obviously something internal has malfunctioned with mine that needs tending to, but everything else with it has worked perfectly. It is an awesome firing gun, very comfortable.

Just so you know, Taurus didn't change the safety to the frame. Both Beretta and Taurus had a frame mounted safety at the time this gun started manufacture. It was Beretta that went to the Slide mounted safety with the release of the 92S model. The factory that builds the Taurus, as you said, was a Beretta factory and do was all of the tooling It was a few years after Beretta sold that factory to Taurus that they began production of the 92S model.

Without going thru the 233 previous comments. . . how does it shoot? I had a Beretta 92F and it couldn't hit a watermelon at 10 yards! It was like the "cone of impact" was 3 feet wide! I sold it for a loss, and bought a Glock 17 and was ever so happy since. If Taurus has tightened the 92 version up a bit I'm still interested. I have a thing for full metal framed guns as the weight takes up a lot of the recoil, and increases accuracy. Any pistol that can keep a group of 2 inches "free hand" at 10 yards is a friend of mine!
