Info req?. Beretta 92.

[swiftyx2]

Hi folks,

Quick question for you experts?,

Is the barrel on my Beretta 92 supposed to be loose and move around at the muzzle end?, free floating in side slide.

The chap I purchased gun off had made a silencer come barrel extension and it had been clamped on to the barrel by a grub screw.

Any info would be great as groups seem to shift all over the place.

Thanks Steve.

Sounds like the screw inside needs tightening . Bare with me and I will find a diagram and show you how to do it yourself ,

Oh bugger , can't find a diagram

First check that the screw at the front is tight .

OR

Undo that one then slide the top on the pistol off ! Turn the casing and barrel upside down and you will see more screw either side of the barrel , tighten those up and that should cure the problem .

( Its a lot easier if I was actually working on it . ) lol

Hi Dave,

Thanks for info mate checked the front screw tight, then took off top slide and checked the other 2 screws and gave them a tweak put slide back on and it still moves around at the front? part no 55, is it supposed to?.

Thanks for help Dave drawing is great now I know the parts involved.

Ahhh bugger it !

I have stripped these down to every last component ( without a diagram ) and they are the only ones that I know that make the barrel move . I am probably missing something as I don't have one now Its hard to tell ?

The whole topslide moves, it's the way they're made. There are tiny pips in the metal either side at the front which take up some up/down slack but they soon wear.

Cheers gents,

Going to take it in to my local shop and let them have a look and compare against a new one.

Thanks again.
