Beretta NANO

[ptt811]

Was at the Local Gun shop today, Been looking for a small pocket pistol and was really stuck on the Ruger LC9. They said they have had them in the past and had more ordered. I asked about the Beretta NANO ? He actually had 2, a new one and a used one. Said the used one was bought a month ago in his store and the guy brought it back and traded it for a full size 9MM. The gun looked like it had never been fired ?? So he made me a great deal on it and its at my house now ! I put about 50 rounds through it tonight and really like it. Very comfortable to shoot, does shoot about 2 in. low at about 15 yards but I think I can live with that ? I don't think that is adjustable ? But very happy so far.

Seems like you got a good deal. If it shoots good and you like it, even better. One thing I remember about it is that you can press the barrel against your target and it will not take it out of battery, unlike most other pistols.

you are talking about a sub compact, so a 2 inch drop at 15 yards is not bad at all. As long as your groups are descent, it's a great gun that should be a good shooter at 7- 10 yards.

Cool, I have been looking at the Nano. Seems like many good reports about it around the net.

Mine shoots and handles great as long as I stay away from WWB 115 grain FMJ ball ammo. Seems like I get a stoppage every fourth or fifth magazine with that ammo, as has been well-documented on the 'net. Defensive rounds have been 100% reliable and I have 200 rounds of WWB 124 grain NATO for range practice to try next. My stoppages always result from the pistol trying to chamber the next round with a spent casing still on the chamber. Makes the pistol a little but more expensive to practice with than a less finicky eater, that's all. The little pistol is hell strong and way overbuilt since it was designed to be a .40 S&W platform as well.
