Beretta 92 pistol series

The Beretta 92 and variants are used by the following actors in the following movies, TV series, anime, and video games:

NOTE: In the past, the Beretta 92F and 92FS have often been misspelled on IMFDB as "M92F" (as this page was originally titled), "M92FS", or "92 FS" with a space in between the "92" and "FS". These are incorrect spellings; the correct versions are "Beretta 92F" or "Beretta 92FS". Please do not use any of the mis-spelled versions on any future pages, and please correct older pages with this error.

Beretta 92F - 9x19mm. The cosmetic differences are very slight and hard to see. Most of the changes are the inner workings of the gun.

(Beretta 92F (Early Model) - 9x19mm (Other side showing "92F" on slide) Other than the slim grip covers (the 92F is slightly different with a gloss black plastic, versus the 92FS) the pistol is difficult to tell apart from a 92FS. The only real proof is the year a movie was made and whether or not the 92FS existed yet.)

Beretta 92F/FS

Also known as the M9 in U.S. military service (however, there are few - if any- actual "M9s" seen in movies and TV shows; property masters and armorers always use the civilian 92FS, even when the pistols are seen in the hands of actors playing U.S. military personnel). Four out of five branches of the military issue the Beretta M9; all five did until 2006 when the USCG adopted the SIG-Sauer P229.

Beretta 92

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Beretta 92, the first Beretta 92 Series model produced, noted by rounded trigger guard, butt located magazine release, and frame mounted safety (pre-decocking safety) - 9x19mm.

The first model Beretta, this model featured a rounded trigger guard, frame mounted slide stop safety (as opposed to the later pistols' slide mounted decocking safety), an early style floor plate, and a butt located magazine release.

Note: Refering to any other model of Beretta as a "Beretta 92" when not referring to this model is incorrect designation.

Beretta 92S

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Beretta Model 92S - 9x19mm. This is one of the earliest Beretta 92 variants. Note the magazine released button on the bottom of the pistol grip and early style magazine floor plate.

The first modification of the original 92; Beretta modified the Beretta 92 by adding a slide-mounted combined safety and decocking lever, replacing the frame mounted manual thumb safety. This model only has a decocking safety on the left side, the later Beretta 92SB would make the safety ambidextrous.

Beretta Model 92SB - 9x19mm (note rounded trigger guard and flat bottom magazine).

The previous Air Force sidearm model of the Beretta 92, easily identified by its rounded trigger guard as the 92F and 92FS would later incorporate the squared trigger guard. Also to note, a 92S is the same with only a right handed decocker and the magazine release placed lower on the frame, the SB is an ambidextrous safety version with the release placed at the end of the trigger guard, making the S somewhat obsolete.
