Data point. My ltt has the 13 pound spring and trigger job (and np3 internals). It has chugged through 1133 rounds of Fiocchi fmj 115 gr since I took delivery 13 days ago, including a rainy USPSA match. No ignition issues.
Ok thanks for your input. I'll take your word on the sharp edges, but I didn't notice them in the short time I manipulated one. Don't care about the colors. The guide rod's material is not an issue, both my CZs have plastic ones and run like hell, with my 75BD having >2X the round count of your LTT. I doubt a steel one would make them run any better. I prefer the Vertec grip and consider OEM grip panels to be disposable.
If you want to deal I might be interested

I got my first hard scratch with my LTT today.... all my fault. It was not from shooting.
I was playing with a 10-8 rear on the LTT and it shot POA POI at 25 yards from a rest but it was shooting below my sights at 5 yards. The 10-8 is lower than the original LTT rear....so I decided to return it back to factory.
I masked my vise jaws with masking tape and began the switch. The LTT was a grizzly bear to hammer back in but my 55+ eyes did not see that I doinked the mask job on the vise jaws and the taped was not even. OUCH
Now that I got that out of the way.... I am ready for some clearance drills on a wood barricade.
If you're going to be a bear….be a GRIZZLY!
UPDATE:
I made arrangements to send my LTT back to Beretta to address the sight issues. Beretta requires pick up by UPS so I asked the FFL I bought it from to handle the pick up. Long story short they had another LTT come in and offered to swap out my gun for the new one.
The new gun has a serial number 14 lower than the first. LTT number 2 has a centered front sight. The rear sight is slightly left but much less so than in #1.The DA is not quite as noce as #1 but the SA is nicer so it’s a wash. #2 also has a sharp edge on the left side of the trigger guard but that can be fixed and covered with alumahyde.
Gun was a little left at 15 but I think it will be ok once the rear is centered.
So last night I finally got around to installing the Ameriglo Pro-Glo (BR-218G) front sight I scored a few months back on my LTT Elite 92G. This is a .125 wide high-vis sight. I'm pleased to report it paired well with the LTT rear sight and this combination was well regulated at 25 yards with 147 grain Federal HST. My groups weren't remarkable, but keeping them in the black on a FBI bullseye at 25 wasn't a problem. I used a "split the bullseye" sight picture.
I don't know why Ameriglo doesn't offer these as a regular catalog item.

Ameriglo blew them out on Ebay last year from their Ameriglo Factory Direct store. IIRC they had white, orange, and yellow.
