So sunday afternoon I swing by my local Cabelas for a look at shooty goodness with my best friend, Partner. he’s looking at a Beretta 92. <\/p>\n
Now, I should back up. We went to Westforth’s a couple weeks- hell, maybe even a month ago- and he bought a Beretta 92 there. Actually, that’s not true, he bought an M9. Beretta is selling “real” issue M9 sidearms, mil spec, the real deal (well, as far as I can tell).<\/p>\n
He bought it as an investment. The price was VERY right, it had all the documentation, the original cardboard box in perfect condition, etc. He figured he’d put a couple rounds through it, clean it thoroughly, and park it in the safe.<\/p>\n
And then he shot it. <\/p>\n
he discovered he CAN shoot it. he’s got vision issues and can’t shoot his 1911’s worth a damn, most days, and he can’t do much with a wheelgun either. He’d despaired of ever beeing able to shoot a sidearm and the beretta made a believer out of him.<\/p>\n
he can hit what he’s aiming at, with astonishing regularity, and the pistol feels good in his hands. <\/p>\n
But he still didn’t want to shoot this thing, so I convinced him to get a civvy model 92, which he bought sunday.<\/p>\n
This is the 14th gun this year I’ve talked him into purchasing. I am the king of enablers. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
