Post; US orders over 18,000 more Beretta 9mm pistols


After many years in service, the 9mm Beretta M9 is the combat pistol for the US Military. Of course, certain units will be using the 1911 and some HK's, but for the majority of military personnel, they'll be slinging the M9 a bit longer. They'll be manufactured here in the USA in Maryland at Beretta USA!!!

They need to switch to Sigs.

The Sig P228 is a great choice. No safety, but a decocker lets you lower the hammer without worries.

I'm sure Sig could easily add a safety though.
