    James,
    Thank you again for providing us the consumer with an opportunity to experience a virtual tour of Beretta’s culture first hand.
    I’ll say it again… Companies should be tripping over themselves to highlight their culture to the consumer. The recent CZ CEO interview alongside this content should serve as a benchmark for other companies to champion their manufacturing achievements as well.
    Well done James and the TFB Tv crew.
    V/R, SB

    The 92FS is a magnificent piece of Italian engineering. I own two. I have the standard black version which was made in Italy and a have an Inox version which was made in the USA. Both fire flawlessly. I've only had one problem with my black one and that was my fault. When I was firing the slide locked while I still had ammo in the magazine. I found I had somehow place my finger too close to the slide release. Some of my favorite firearms. I wouldn't trade them for anything.

    Beretta 92 is a classic dependable gun. Carried one in combat and keep one in the nightstand every night.
