In reply to Sam M. Beretta gets passed up because it's seen as for older people now, for whatever reason. Just ordered a nano on GrabAGun for $267

In reply to Pocketgunner. Wow, thank you for sharing your experience with us. We love getting to hear feedback from shooters. With very few exceptions, Beretta is one of the most impressive gunmakers out there that gets overlooked for some reason.

I shoot a lot of pocket guns and Micro 9mm. I have to say the Nano is without any doubt the nicest Micro 9mm I have ever shot. I could go on and on about the build quality. In my first three months I ran the gun hard. I shot 2,500 rounds without any failures other than a few light primer strikes from some cheap bulk reloads, which I get with any of my guns. Since then another 2,.500 rounds by the end of summer. Ran like a sewing machine with all kinds of different ammo. This gun shoots so mild it is crazy. As many range friends are fond of saying. “It feels like you are shooting 380 ammo in it” Handles plus P better than most guns shoot standard ammo. Smooth, sleek design, fast to the draw, fast to center mass. Love the trigger. Deliberate, smooth all the way through. Bravo to Beretta on this fine performing firearm. Ps, I am going to purchase a second one. One for range and one for Carry.

In reply to Paul. Thoughts on the Ruger LC9?

Had problems with my Nano since I bought it. So many FTE’s that I had to send it back to Beretta. First time they cleaned and polished the ejector ramp. The second time they cleaned and polished the ejector ramp. Like they say, the third times the charm. Beretta sent me a new gun.
I put 150 rounds of ammo through the new gun and the good news is I didn’t have a single FTE. The bad news, I experienced 11 stovepipes. The majority of the stovepipes were within the first 100 rounds. The last 50 I experienced two. I’m going back to the range next week and plan to run 150-200 rounds through the weapon and hopefully the stovepipe issue will be gone.
The Nano is very concealable which is the main reason I bought it but the trigger pull is very long. I really have to concentrate when firing the Nano due to the long trigger pull. My Glock 19 and 26 have a smoother trigger pull but are harder to conceal. On a scale of 1-5 with 5 being the higher score I give the Nano a 2 due to the problems I’ve encountered and the long trigger pull.
