    How broke would you be if you lived next door to Beretta?

    Seems that with Ernie and Wilson offering up more refined versions of the now classic Beretta pistol, more people are embracing it. I’m curious how much damage could be done to a bank account if one lived next door to the factory?
    You can get much more of what you want with a kind word and a gun, than with a kind word alone.

    Just bought my first Beretta, a 92FS that’s already gotten a D spring and will have a G Conversion installed soon. I would probably be divorced and broke, but damn would I have a sweet collection.

    Fifty or so mags

    Figure $8000 in damage, but wait...

    Two 1301s set up properly is another 2k.

    Then add on if you are interested in the plastic offerings or the ARX. Really add on if you like the fancy shotguns. Yep, it could pretty grim.

    In the desert, looking for water.
    I have one 92a1. A spare or a compact, and a nice shotgun, would be a great start to financial insolvency. Of course, I suppose I could sell some other stuff if I were going down that road. But that’s no fun!

    If you're including shotguns for clays, I could go real broke.

    You'll still be broke after the employee discount, but have far more guns to show for it!

    I have four 92 series types.

    Is it more than I need? Yes. Is it more than I want? No.

    There will be more.

    I’ll take that list and add 2 87BB for rimfire can hosts (I’m sure LTT can smooth up the trigger and a trip ToolTech for real sights. Not that I sit up at night and dream about such things)
