New Wilson Beretta -- Centurion Tactical

[JTQ]

If we're guessing, my guess is a PX4 (I'm hoping for a full size) with stippling (note Wilson's new Glock frame treatments), and a bunch of other stuff.

In the Langdon "PX4 Compact might be my DA/SA Glock 19" thread ( https://pistol-forum.com/showthread....DA-SA-Glock-19 ), nearly all of the things Ernest did to his own gun in the first post ended up on the PX4CC, except for the stippling job. I understand why Beretta/Robar/Langdon couldn't do that treatment from a time/cost perspective, but it was the only feature I really wanted over the factory gun (well G model, too).

I think Wilson gives it to us now that they've got some talented stippling guys/gals on the staff.

Quite frankly, I'd rather send my full size PX4s to Robar/LTT and have them copy their Mod 4 modifications. Not sure how much Wilson could bring to the table with a modified PX4 over what Robar/LTT currently offer.

I am on a short leash here, but I will say this is not merely cosmetic, it is the configuration that I always wished Beretta built. I am down for multiple copies.

This may very well be true, but when are you NOT down for multiple copies?

Hey, two is one.....

Sounds like the M9A3 already checks the boxes you need, unless I'm missing something in your criteria.

Regular back strap frame. I'm not a fan of the Vertec back strap, and the wrap around conversion grips leave you no options for grip thickness. In addition, you are stuck with the rubberized feel. I'm not a fan of rubber grips either. A regular frame (with rail) and vertec slide is what I want. The coming Langdon offers that, the M9A3 doesn't.

Probably not my guess or wish, then. However, that's OK, something else would be cool too.

Beretta is selling Vertec slides on their website...pick up a M9A1 or if you already have a M9A1 just buy the new upper and bam! Langdon Special you can configure how you want (grips, sights, trigger, mag release). If I could find a new M9A1 frame I'd have a Vertec upper on the way already...

Alright, who volunteers to search all his Beretta posts for hints about what the hell he's talking about?

A Centurion with dovetailed or fiber optic sights would be nifty. You get better parts compatibility with the full size guns going that route vs the compacts.
