Good question. I was just on the phone with Aimee discussing that at LTT. At this point I think I may want the D spring since this pistol will be for personal defense. The LTT website currently doesn’t allow for purchase w/o a trigger job and the trigger job will have a 13# spring. So in a nutshell, I don’t want a 13# spring in a personal defense pistol. Based on the education I am getting (and appreciate) with better trigger bar I probably don’t need a 16# spring. I feel good with 14# based on my own experience as long as I avoid hard primer ammo.
My other concern is build quality. I feel like I need to see the gun. I looked at 2 different 92s today at LGS. A 92X (not performance model) and the barrel was touching the barrel hood on one side. I don’t want that. Beretta considers that cosmetic but it requires sights to be adjusted if possible to correct. The LTT Elite I looked at did not have that issue. But the front sight was located such that the edge of dovetail on sight was flush with left edge of milled cut in slide; as out of center as possible staying within slide milled area. The rear sight was drifted so far left (to accommodate front sight off-center) the sight was out of slide milled area with overhang you could put your fingernail under. Now admittedly the 2 sights appeared to be in line and parallel to barrel, just off-center. This LTT Elite was direct from Beretta, did not go thru LTT and get any inspection and rejection that might occur with LTT.
My 92A1 is perfect with respect to these 2 issues. Am I being too picky. I love Beretta 92s. Accurate, reliable, great design, looks cool too. What’s not to like.
