    Not rare and can be purchased on line for around $600, NIB (new in box).

        some mags might not be interchangeable due to that. Unless they have both cuts.
        Have a good day!

          Pics please.

          As I recall the 92S came first, then 92SB, 92F, then 92FS. Of course M9 and M9A1 is the military designation. Wikipedia has a good article on the Berettas and the timeline.

          A new Beretta 9mm with the American style mag release is $600. A Beretta 9mm from the early 1980s with the European mag release may be $300. YMMV

            New model mags may not work in your older 92S.

            They only made between 5-7000 of the first model 92 with the "stepped slide", then made about 50,000+ of the "straight sided slide" before the gun was redesigned the 92S, with a slide mounted safety and the heel release was moved to the current frame button.

            If you have the heel release, then this would be a very early 92S (or a modified original 92), before police and military contracts forced beretta to move the magazine release to the frame. This did not change the model designation.

                If its in good condition I would not let it go for anything lower than 500. I think some people might actually pay more if they are Beretta fan/collectors. That left side grip mag release is funky and some people might like that. But as a range toy with limited availability on new mags... Might hurt sales with some ppl.

                  As of right now,its a cheap old Italian gun.

                    New in box, means someone bought it and did not fire it. There were a couple of closed actions on gun broker that gave me the guide price.

                      Most newer Beretta magazines will work in it , just look for the mag catch notch on the lower part of the mag. almost all my 92fsmags have the extra notch in it for the early 92.
