Beretta 92 - Gunpedia (1313 words) |
 | It must be noted that, while being entirely adequate as a combat pistol, the Beretta 92 is somewhat bulky for its caliber and magazine capacity, thus less suitable for users with average or smaller hands. |
 | Other than the basic 9mm, Beretta also makes these pistols in other calibers, such as.40 SandW (model 96) and 9x21 IMI (Model 98, available for civilian users in certain European countries, including Italy). |
 | Beretta also makes a wide variety of models based on the same design; these include not only variations in finishes and sights, but also different trigger types (DA/SA, DA/SA with decock only, DAO, DAO with manual safety). |

9x21 IMI - Information at Halfvalue.com (283 words) |
 | The 9 x 21 mm IMI pistol cartridge was designed for those markets where the 9 mm Luger cartridge cannot be purchased by civilian users, notably Italy. |
 | As it is a rimless round, the 9x21 is used in USPSA/IPSC competition in Open class firearms. |
 | As other.38 Super based rimless cases became available, the 9x21 decreased in popularity in the US for competition use, but it is still widely used in the rest of the world. |
