Their is nothing wrong the M9 or 92FS civilian model. Like any semi auto handgun, they will function properly if kept cleaned and oiled.

I don't even own a Beretta, but almost every one I've fired had some kind of quirk with feeding, properly oiled or not. I usually have to pull out the magazine spring and give it a stretchy-stretchy to deal with the failure to feed. You should see the horrified expressions on the owners' faces when I do that, especially the LEOs. But it always works.

I picked this trick up from an FFL dealer at the range. Perhaps it's not the correct approach but perhaps the effing piece should not be so sensitive either.

Most of the M9's feeding problems were magazine-related. AFAIK the newer mags have improved things greatly. The weapon itself, is typically well-made and reliable in and of itself.

The anemic performance of the 9MM NATO FMJ round, however, is a different story.
