I put one of these on my Elite LTT last October. In Nov I shot 2 night idpa matches w/ it. It worked great but was a bit awkward to turn it on. I had to be sure to consciously think about it during the draw. Looking through the Streamlight website I came across their 'Contour' switches. They have 3 models and each fits a certain model pistol but no Beretta listed. I looked at the pictures and decided to take a chance on the M&P model thinking I could mod if needed. Well heck, they could dang near ad Beretta to the list.

To be fair it won't quite work. I had done a bit of filing on the TLR-2G already so it would slide as far back on the rail as possible. Depending on the exact 92 that may not be needed. But mine was within about 1/16" of perfect. It actually worked but you could feel the flex. Here you can see the gap to the grip frame.

I needed about .035 inches shim. I ended up using the black Gorilla mounting tape which is slightly too thick but it made the button super solid. You also still have the usual switches on the back of the light if you want to use them. Very happy how this worked out.

Yep - the M&P switch is close to a perfect fit, and closer depending on the gun. I ran my TLR-2G with the Contour switch on my 92LTT duty gun back in 2018-2020 and it’s currently on my M9A1 with a couple layers of skateboard tape. The top layer is peeling a bit so I think I’ll try the thick gorilla tape idea.
