Beretta M9

The 10-round J92M9A0 and California J92M9A0CA are separate listings, as are the M9A1, M9A3, M9A4 and the .22 LR M9-22 (J90A1M9F18/19, which the current page groups under the same "M9" heading). KEPT SEPARATE FROM THE beretta-92fs RECORD, AND NOTHING WAS CARRIED FROM IT. Beretta itself distinguishes the two — "What sets it apart from the 92FS is: distinctive military style markings... unique M9-prefixed serial number... 'Dot-and-Post' sight system" — and every value here comes from a Beretta document that names the M9. THE SPECIFICATIONS COME FROM THE PREVIOUS beretta.com M9 PAGE (captured 2023-09-11), which publishes both unit systems, so nothing is converted, and they are CROSS-VALIDATED BY A SECOND, INDEPENDENT BERETTA DOCUMENT: the 2011 Beretta USA "Pistols & Tactical Products" catalogue, linked as a download from Beretta's own M9 listing, whose p. 26 row for M9 / J92M9A0M gives 8.5 in length, 5.4 in height, 4.9 in barrel, 1.5 in width, 1.3 in grip width, 6.1 in sight radius, 33.3 oz unloaded, 15 rounds and "Dbl/Sngl" — agreeing value for value with the 2023 page twelve years later. That table is printed rotated, so its column mapping was checked by coordinate: every dimension, the weight and the action sit at x = 450, the midpoint between the J92M9A0M (x = 444) and J92M9A0 (x = 457) rows, which is a cell spanning both, while the capacities sit at 444 (15) and 457 (10) — the Glock manual span lesson on a third brand. A DISCLOSURE THE SEPARATION RULE REQUIRES: BERETTA ITSELF PUBLISHES ONE SPECIFICATION ENTRY FOR TWO MODELS. The 2023 page's technical block is keyed "92fsm9" in its markup, and Beretta's 2011 "92 Series" brochure prints a single "92FS/M9" spec column. So the maker regards these dimensions as shared; the record takes them because Beretta publishes them under the M9's name, not because they were read across from the 92FS. And they are NOT the figures on the beretta-92fs record, which come from Beretta's 2014 92 Series user manual: that record has 217 mm and 975 g / 34.4 oz, where Beretta's own 92FS/M9 entry gives 216 mm and 944 g / 33.3 oz (the 2011 brochure assigns 34.4 oz to the 92A1/96A1 column instead). That is a same-tier conflict on the 92FS record, reported for review there and not resolved here. IGNITION COMES FROM THE 2011 92 SERIES BROCHURE, whose "Common Features" — stated for a series it lists as "92 FS, M9, M9A1, 92A1/96A1" — include "External Hammer Design... this design provides the energy to the firing pin", which is the ignition mechanism on its own axis; the catalogue's M9 page repeats "External Hammer Design" as a callout. The 2023 page never mentions the hammer. `triggerAction` is `da/sa` from the page's "Action: Single/Double", which `system` quotes; its model table and the catalogue say "Dbl/Sngl". OPERATING SYSTEM IS UNSET, FOR THE SAME REASON THE 92FS RECORD REFUSED THE SAME SENTENCE: the brochure says the 92 series "operates on a short recoil, delayed blowback system", which is not a coherent single classification, and the 92FS record's resolving source — the 92 Series user manual — lists no M9 column, so borrowing its operation row would be exactly the transplant this record must not make. WEIGHT AND HEIGHT BASIS: Beretta heads the weight "Weight unloaded" in both documents and says nothing about a magazine, so it sits in `weightUnloaded`; the height's magazine state is likewise unstated. CAPACITY: 15 standard for J92M9A0M; 10 is the other column of the same technical table and the second M9 row of the catalogue. Frame class is unset: the 2013 Beretta USA listing files the M9 under a "Full Size" navigation category, which is site chrome rather than a size class (the Ruger "Compact" rule), and no Beretta name for this model carries a size word. Slide finish is unset: the page says "Its Bruniton finish" of the pistol as a whole. CURRENCY: the current beretta.com page (captured 2026-06-08) still lists J92M9A0M, but its technical sheet is client-rendered and absent from the capture, and beretta.com's product pages serve an Imperva/Incapsula challenge to direct requests (re-checked 2026-09-30), so the values are as-published in 2023 and 2011. Year introduced is unrecorded: the 1985 US Army contract dates the military M9, not the commercial model. Warranty and trigger pull are unrecorded — no reachable Beretta source publishes them. Also published and unrecorded for want of a schema field: a 155 mm / 6.1 in sight radius, a 1.3 in grip width, military-style markings, an M9-prefixed serial number, a dot-and-post sight system, a reversible magazine release, an ambidextrous safety-decocker, a disassembly latch, a combat trigger guard, and the $789 MSRP at the 2023 capture ($819 on the current page, $650 in the 2011 catalogue).
