    The old ones just "feel" better to me. Super slick action.

    I agree, very impressive.

    What's the age or time frame for yours ?
    I have a FS92 Centurion that I bought new in 1992.
    It is "new school".
    Surely you or Shipwreck can tell me when "things" changed.

    Yes, that one superseded the adoption of the 92 by the military... That one has the older bottom mag release.

    I have been tempted once or twice by an older 92 in good condition. But, if I bought one, it would be to use as a shooter. And, the sights on many of the older ones are almost like GI sights on a 1911... Not dots and the front sight is pretty tiny.

    It's hard to capture the bluing in a photo. It really does look nicer than this. But here it is with Beretta grip panels.
