    Need help with my Beretta 92

    I took my beretta to the range yesterday and was shocked on how off target it was, its got fix sight on it so theres no way of adjusting it. Before yesterday it was shooting right on target so now I need advice on what I can do to fix it.

    The rear sight is adjustable. Try to mount it in a rest and check your groupings with good ammo. My M9 shoots some cheap 9mm ammo like crap but is very accurate with my hand loads.
    Will trade liquor/wine/beer for parts and accesories and ammo! PM me. Dont drink n shoot. Offer void where prohibited. Must be 21 or older, etc. etc.

      How is the rear sight adjustible? I dont see any screws or any way to adjust it.
      I was shooting some crappy tula ammo but I dont think that's why it was shooting real low to the right

        The 92 is rifled for 124gr +P ammo.

        I'd guess it's the shooter & not the weapon.

          The rear sight can be drifted or pushed as needed, but I doubt that's the issue. More than likely you are doing something wrong. If you've picked up some bad habits between range trips, that will probably do it. The 92 also seems pretty picky about what kind of ammo it will shoot well with. I can shoot pretty decent groups with most of the target rounds out there, but I notice when my buddies shoot it, their groups will be off their point of aim. The chart that killer bee posted is pretty handy. I have one printed out that I will take to the range with me.

            LOL yea I was blaming my self but I was shooting great with my other handguns. I guess I'm going to take all the advice I can get and try them to see which one works best.

              I doubt anything is wrong with your Beretta. Unless you dropped it or banged it against something, the problem is either you or the ammo.

                Switch ammo before making any adjustments to the sights. Tula ammo is 'blasting ammo' not target ammo.

                If you decide to drift the rear sight, have it done by someone who has the right tools and know how, or you can screw up your gun.

                    Clean your pistol and inspect it under good lighting. Look for anything that could be a crack. Check photos in this posting:
                    Sorry to all of you who were looking for my photos in this post, the old server wanted money to host :(I have been trying to gather the photos back into another photo server. Hopefully it will no be m



                    If your pistol is looking good, go back to evaluate your shooting grip/stance/trigger pull. Something has changed.
