ERGONOMIC AND MODULAR FEATURES Technopolymer grip frame By using corrosion-resistant fiberglass reinforced technopolymer, Beretta has developed a light and technically advanced pistol with an ergonomic shape. The rounded, snag free surfaces of the pistol ensure trouble-free holster insertion and extraction. Ergonomic and modular grip The ergonomic frame features an optimal grip angle for sight alignment and target acquisition. The upper rear part of the grip is contoured to snugly fit and protect the shooter's hand. Both the front and the rear grip surfaces feature a comfortable checkered surface to ensure a firm hold. Reversible magazine release button The magazine release button can be installed for right- or left-hand use depending on shooter preference (pages 34-37). Snag free internal slide catch The snag free slide catch is activated by the magazine follower. To hold the slide to the rear it is necessary to insert an empty magazine before retracting the slide. To lower the slide on an empty chamber, remove the empty magazine, pull back slightly on the slide to disengage the slide catch and release the slide. Interchangeable grip frame and serialized sub-chassis The internal chassis of this pistol is the only serialized part. This allows any other component to be exchanged or customized without affecting the serialized part. WARNING: Do not attempt to alter your pistol's firing mechanism. Modifying these internal parts can cause an unsafe condition. WARNING: Altering the internal parts of your pistol's firing mechanism voids the manufacturer's warranty. 24
