This funnel or internal magwell allows this shooter to insert a fresh magazine much more quicker than traditional 22 pistols.Training & Self-Defense With. When looking at the opening for the magazine, it almost looks as if a full sized double stack magazine might fit but the opening narrows down quickly like funnel. However, Beretta has made what I like to call an internal magwell inside the pistol grip. The 92 series pistols have a rather large pistol grip to accommodate the double stack magazines and this 22 version is nothing different. The narrowness of the magazine in conjunction with the opening in the butt of the pistol make inserting a mag less fluid than with a center-fire pistol. If you shoot many rim-fire pistols you know how delicate the insertion of these magazines can be when putting one in the gun. At the time of this article, finding replacement magazines for the M9 22lr pistol might be challenging but we found some HERE.Īlso a very note worthy aspect of the mags, or rather how the magazines fit into the frame of the pistol. 22lr pistols have only 10 round factory mags and require special UPGRADE KITS to get additional rounds in the magazine. I deem this a High Capacity mag since most. The gun itself is not made by Beretta, but made by Umarex who makes many other 22 clones, like the Colt 1911-22 and Smith & Wesson M&P22 pistols. Different from my 92f 9mm model is a captured recoil spring with a plastic guide rod on the M9_22. The take down lever works in the same manner as the 92 series pistols separating the slide, barrel and recoil spring from the frame. Either way, the controls work exactly the same. It's unclear if it is just stiff due to the newness of the parts, or if its plastic construction has more friction than the metal parts found on the 9mm version. The decocker works just like any other but is a bit harder to disengage. Additionally the trigger feels the same with no changes in geometry. Anyway, right out of the box, the pistol felt the same in my hands with the exception of a few missing ounces in weight. If you have not seen USPSA or IPSC style shooting you can see some heart pounding first person shooter video on my YouTube channel. It felt exactly like my Beretta 92f 9mm pistol that I use in Production Division to shoot USPSA matches. When my M9-22 arrived I was immediately impressed.
