Beretta M9 A3.. vs Beretta 92 Vertec

[SA85M1]

Bill C71 be damned,i have plans to get a new Beretta after Xmas...other than the cerakote and the threaded bbl.,is there much difference between these two pistols ?..
There appears to be a number of dealers that have the M9,.. the 92 Vertec not so much ?.. What say you ??..

Vertec has been discontinued since mid 2000's that's why.

The New cerakote FDE Beretta M9A3 look great. I have to say the US Mil should probably have stayed with them for the most part.

Some key differences between the 92FS Vertec and the M9A3:

1) The Vertec has three white dots sights while the M9A3 has tritium night sights.

2) The Vertec grip is straight at the back while you can add a larger backstrap on the M9A3 (included with the M9A3).

3) The Vertec barrel is not only non-threaded, it is also shorter than the standard 92FS, 92A1 or M9 barrels. On the Vertec, the barrel is flush with the front of the slide.

4) The rail on the Vertec has only one slot, while there are 3 on the M9A3.
