Listen, we have to establish some facts here.
How many rounds have been put through the gun since new?
Berettas like to be wet. Are the rails, all moving parts well-lubricated with appropriate lube?
If the gun has had several thousand rounds through it, it might be the recoil spring.
But, clean the firearm and lube it well before doing anything else.

1.500-550 rounds through it. The Gun is only a month old
2.Yes everything is lubed well with Hoppes9 oil. I thought a bit much personally.
3.As said before maybe 550 rounds through it tops. I have witnessed both failures to extract. And the gun jammed once when I was shooting it. The bullet jammed into the top of the chamber it did not load into the chamber.
^^^^ Yes I'm "thehulks" shooting buddy incase anyone is wondering. I've seen all this happen.^^^^

Is this all with the same shape of bullet with same overall length. Possibly too light loads or overall length. I have had the same issues feeding my glock when I had light loads.
All the same bullet. 124gr S&B 9mm. Only one jam though, two failures to extract.

I owned a Beretta Elite II, so I feel OK commenting here.
OK, so it's a fairly new gun. Factory ammo. Cleaned and lubed.
I thnk we're down to three possibilities.
Limp wristing. But then you'd probably have more misfeeds, unless you were tired at the time of the misfeeds, or not paying 100% attention. It happens to everybody.
Dirty extractor. This is the most likely cause.
Weak recoil spring. Easy to fix. A possibility.
Have you tried the Beretta Forum?

I think i may have over lubricated the gun causing the power residue to stick to the extractor. i could be wrong though. Also i gave the gun a real good cleaning with solvent down the length of the rails and other tight areas and my q-tips heads were filthy with black residue. I also claened around the firing pin and removed alot of red wax residue left behind from the S&B ammo.
OK so i went to the range today and had 5 failures to extract in 100 shots. The gun was completely cleaned before shooting. I need some serious help cause it driving me crazy not know whats wrong with it. I thought it was my magazines so i started hand loading round into the chamber and it still failed to extract on the first shot i did like that.
The only way to find out is change to other ammo brand, you might bought a batch of bad ammo and blame the gun for nothing. If you use the same ammo you can never find out what cause the problem
Trigun
I hope you're right about the ammo. the only reason i think it might be the gun is because it has gotten progressivly worse. Keep in mind ive only ever shot Sellier Bellot ammo so im not sure if say winchester or remington or even federal AE would be any different.

Have you taken a look at the Beretta Forum?
Invest in another brand of ammo--the best quality you can find. Frankly, I've never heard of a Beretta jamming like that.
A remote possibility is a bad ejector. Another possibility is limp-wristing. Another possibility is the magazine--dirty or binding or a bad spring. But, I suspect the ammo since you've been using one brand. Anything is possible with a bad batch--maybe even screwed-up OAL.

My M9 doesn't really care about OAL. I recently loaded some weak 9mm and it would give my a lot of fail to eject, stove pipes, jams etc. I upped my recipe .5 grains and no more jams. Maybe your ammo is loaded on the weak side.
Besides that, my M9 is 100% reliable with Winchester white box, American Eagle 147 gr, both Speer Lawman 124 and 147 gr and Blazer Brass 124 gr.

One safe way is to get some snap caps. You can google image for pics of the 92 ejector and extractor and compare. In any case, these parts should be good for tens of thousands of rounds.
Check to see if your extractor claw is broken. It happens very rarely but does happen (and in Glocks too). Check the spring under the extractor too. Also, are you sure you put it back together right? If you were local I'd look over it for you.
Ya think i figured it out. It has to be the ammo being to weak because i spent a half hour ejecting spent cases out it without a problem so the ammo must not be throwing the slide back all the time. Im going to order in some 115gr winchester from marstar and im sure that will be the problem solver.
