Western Arms - Beretta M92FS Tactical Elite

The Baretta M92FS Tactical Elite by WA is one extremely nice looking gun - mainly black with a silver barrel, there’s no way you won’t fall for its looks. Like all of Western Arms’ Berettas, the Elite feels very solid and heavy in the hand. The gun is mostly made of a hard ABS plastic, but the trigger, hammer, slide lock, recoil rod and takedown lever are all metal.
The grips are nicely made and feature vertical ribs front and back to provide a secure grip. The barrel is also well finished. It’s plastic, but it’s made to look like stainless steel and does not seem to wear noticeably from the action of the slide. The magazine features a metal buffer at the base and holds 26 rounds. Here’s the common info:

Built Material - ABS
Magazine Capacity - 25+1 ( 6mm )
Length - 211mm
Barrel Length - /mm
Weight - 930g
System - Gas Blow Back / Hop-Up / R-Type Magazine

About the performance – this is one very powerful gun, proving to be just as efficient. When it comes to accuracy though - I’ve seen better. It doesn’t really spell disaster, but there sure is place for improvement. Accuracy is pretty much the Tactical Elite’s only downside. Taking it down and maintaining it is an easy job. Still for the money it goes - $170 - $230 (depending on the place you’re getting it) I’m sure you can find something better. It’s a beautiful Baretta, yes, but aren’t they all.
