That was one good piece on the Taurus 92, which I'd recommend anytime too. I've got a 99 decocker version with similar UM grips that has served me for a dozen years and over 20.000 rounds very well: just recently I had to replace my first locking block. The barrel is still dead on, very decent groups.
A couple of things about the article though: the front sight on my 99 seems very much the same size as the 92, not a bit taller. The mag release certainly doesn't interchange with Beretta as they don't share their history - at the time Beretta owned the factory the pistols still had mag catches at the heel of the butt. Both have since designed their own, likewise the safety arrangements where Beretta's more radical change made it worse in my opinion, no Cond. 1 carry possible.
The Taurus mag release is not ambi, but reversible though. You can push it way in and unscrew the plug on the other side, then put it in the other way.
The roll pin doesn't hold it in place. I don't know its purpose, but that's not it. Roll pins are an achilles heel of the pistol altogether, they shake loose and to bits. You'll need Lok-Tite... that's why I recommend to stay away from the 99, the rear sight abomination has several... :banghead: If you need adjustable, get a 92 and an aftermarket sight that'll fit its dovetail.
That's what I'm doing now, I'm getting a replacement slide soon because my nowadays active IPSC practice with kydex gear eats up the bluing and I hate the 99 rear sight anyway - after several roll pin replacements and fixes it's a mess with a vertical screw installed from top... it's tritium time and I'll try the factory 92BNS version sights first.
