OSPWPN011 The Beretta M9 Pistol $17.95

In 1990 the Beretta M9 replaced the venerable Colt 1911 as the main pistol ofchoice for the US Army.

Nonetheless, the Beretta, although not a perfect pistol, has sinceproved many of its distractors wrong with widespread use in Iraq andAfghanistan. Written by a leading pistol expert who currently trains USSpecial Forces in the use of this weapon, this book is an honest appraisal of thesuccesses and failings of the Beretta design. The volume traces the Berettadesigns, which preceded the M9 as well as its use on the battlefield, includingthe impact it has had on close combat training due to the larger magazinecapacity.
