So i was at my local FFl to pick up a transfer and there was a single lonely Taurus PT99 nickle plated 9mm in the case. When i asked about it, i was told it was a 1988 gun mfg in the brazil plant ( still had original owner registration card from 88). This was very similar to the 9mm that i learned to shoot on and from when i know through all my years of gun knowledge is that the old taurus semi auto's were pretty good. Needless to say, this one came home with me as well

Nice!

Those PT92s and PT99s were built off the original Beretta tooling by Beretta trained employees.

I have a 1994 production PT92AF that is a dream to shoot. No difference between my Berettas. Now, by 1997 and after though, there is a noticeable difference.
