Wilson Combat Beretta Custom Series – Good news for 92/96 Owners

Wilson Combat recently announced they will customize your Beretta — that's good news for you 92/96 fans, though it doesn't do much good for anyone carrying an M9 (more's the pity). They've been customizing 1911 of such breeds as Colt, Kimber, Dan Wesson, Les Baer and others for decades. Now they've added something new to the lineup.

Here’s what they have to say about the Wilson Combat Beretta Custom Series.

Wilson Combat is pleased to announce a full product line of our newly designed, enhanced replacement parts and a comprehensive suite of custom gunsmithing options for the Beretta 92/96 series handguns.

The Beretta 92/96 series is a classic combat handgun and the standard issue sidearm of the United States Armed Forces since 1985. The legendary reliability and user-friendly design of the 92/96 can now be enhanced with our quality parts and services geared towards the needs of defensive, tactical shooters.

Our custom handguns have won more pistol competitions and have been carried in more duty holsters than any other custom pistol brand. At Wilson Combat, only our most experienced Master Pistolsmiths perform customer gunsmithing work at Wilson Combat so we can assure your satisfaction with the finished product for life. As Wilson Combat is a true custom shop, some options may be available that are not listed in our Custom Gunsmithing rates.

Bill Wilson still trains actively, spending time on the range and seeking out classes from top instructors.

Some other Wilson Combat goodness:

Wilson Combat is located in Berryville, Arkansas and have been in the area for a looong time. They were “Wilson’s Gun Shop” back in 1977 when Bill Wilson first opened for business. During those years he did work in the back room of Wilson's Jewelry store. Though originally Wilson used after-market parts, but by 1996 everything was done in house. The rest, as they say, is custom gun history.

Gorgeous, awesome, custom gun history.

You can preorder the 92/96 series weapons (or buy the individual parts) here online.  Note that you'll likely have to wait awhile to get your customized pistol, but many well-known names in the industry (not to mention a generation of “everyman” shooters tell us it’s worth the wait.
