I don't think it will fit on a 92fs Centurion, as the dust cover on the Centurion is shorter. I have a LNIB 92fs I will trade you for the Centurion plus some $

Found this.

In regards to the Centurion verses M9, they are similar, but a little different...

The Centurion uses the Compact slide/barrel, but it also uses a modified frame. The dust cover on the Centurion is shorter than a full size pistol, but the rails are also shorter and closer together. You can put a Centurion/Compact slide on a full size frame without issue, but putting a full size slide on a Centurion/Compact frame causes a gap between the slide and edge of dust cover (exposing the recoil assembly). The Centurion differs from a Compact frame only in the length of the grip, which only accepts the full size magazines. Compacts (excluding single stack Type Ms) can accept the standard magazines with a gap between the base and end of grip, as well as the shorter Compact magazines.

Thanks all.... guess I'll just have to leave it alone ... as is... life is tough...lol

^^^^I have a LNIB 92fs I will trade you for the Centurion plus some $ .... now if you had a SA range officer in 9mm we could work something out

Some have had issues when using a "D" spring.
Others have said break the slide in and no problems.

Very well made, but too many light strikes requiring a second pull of the trigger.


Per title - I like the excellent quality of this conversion kit, and it fits on the gun very well. The action is quite smooth and light, when it fires that is, and therein is the problem - light strikes. Using the factory hammer spring, the .22 LR rounds will fail to fire at least once per magazine. This is annoying. Usually, but not always, a second pull of the trigger will fire the round. I suspect the firing pin spring may be a little too strong and that is why the gun doesn't fire every time but I don't know. The only other possible culprit could be, a weak hammer spring - but the gun fires 9mm rounds practically every time. I am not willing to put in a stronger hammer spring to fire .22 LR from the kit - I think that would be ill advised, since who knows what would happen to reliability (when firing 9mm rounds) if I did that? The solution was obviously, return it to the factory but I think I already exceeded the warranty so - I guess I am stuck with it.

Used with a 92FS Vertec #14lb spring and had problems.
Installed on 92FS with the D spring #16lb
Only had problems with cheap .22LR about 10%
CCI works better 3%
Have not broken in.
When manually pushing the firing pin block than pushing on firing pin can feel severe "grit"
Have not disassembled to polish.
Will just run failure drills till it smooths out.

First generation is noted as working with Centurion frame.


Never in stock from Beretta.
Picked mine up during 40% off with Xtreme-S trigger kit so trigger kit was "free"
I would wait for a sale and in stock

Did the same during their Labor Day Sale. Got the New Conversion .22lr kit (10 round) and the Xtreme trigger for 40% off. Also have a Vertec slide on mine.

Have you put the trigger kit in it yet?

Yes, actually put put them on both my 92FS Vertec and 96FS Vertec.
Polished the "DLC" off the exposed parts to keep the INOX look.
Did a side by side from my other 92FS Vertec without the kit.
Not a big trigger snob but will say I prefer the kit.
Have the 92X Performance on my next to get list so figure will warm up with the kit.

Most who have tried the LTT bar vs. new Xtreme S pick the LTT
So if you do not need/want...hammer, trigger, DLC coated parts in kit than go for the LTT

Can pick up the Xtreme-S trigger bar for $43 also other parts in kit.

The trigger is grooved, not smooth.

Dang!!! Nice!!!

I was torn between the LTT and 92X. With the 40% off and availability of the 10 round .22LR kit, the 92X was a no brainer. That and I have a preference for using OEM parts when available.

I even have M&P 2.0 trigger parts in my 1.0s rather than APEX.
