Not trying to crap on the 92, which is a goodt gun, but

You Done Good!

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

It was a shining example of a 92F, with the box and 3 sets of grips, but yeah, I think I did alright.cool

what a deal. Some people love Rugers and their barrels don't even come off. I'm keeping my eyes out for a .357 sm.

You did very well indeed, .22 mags only show up very rarely, some guys have been looking a long time to find one.

   You should take a good pic for an entry for this year's calendar contest.

Nice trade and nice 722M.  They don't come around often and there aren't many of them out there.  You can pick up a NIB 92F any day of the week for under $600.  We only see a 722M come around maybe once in a year if that and today I wouldn't be surprised if one brought $1k+ at auction.  That was a great trade deal.

Nice trade.  Nothing against the 92F, but when you want another 9, get a DW Pointman 9; outstanding gun.

Our 722M is the one gun that goes to the range with us every  time. After we're tired from shooting the "big" guns, whether its .357 or .445, we always finish up with the 722MVH8. It is just a really sweet gun to shoot and like all Dan's (except for the 738+P's, of course), deadly accurate.

Enjoy.

-Mike

Very nice, indeed!  The 722 is one of the holes in my Monson DW collection.

Holy crap!

Okay sooo..., first of all, congrats on your cool score & ultimately your foresight into the rare DW's out there.laugh A Beretta 92F trade was definitely an instinctual reaction for any DW aficionado, no matter how familiar you may be with DW's & the history.wink Way to go!!!!occasion

Thanks for thecool-pics and especially for the paperwork photos, I don't recall seeing most of those before.

Ahhh, the 'ol dreaded "high-and-to-the-left" thing.laugh I am still slowly working into what my Lil' Dan wants to eat. Once I get it figured out, I'll divulge the "secret 738+P diet info".lol2
