Last weekend I bought a cheap Anderson lower on a whim. One thing led to another and I now have a DPMS LPK, BCM, Buffer kit, M4 stock, some PMAGs and a freaking LE6920 upper headed my way!!!:bang::insane:
Moral of the story, stay the hell away from the local gun store :pari:

Beretta Web - Mobel 92
I see that I have a Beretta not on that list -- 948 in 22LR. It was made in 1952 and still works.:)
I love the 84BB. I wish I can get a few more.

Taurus won a contract to manufacture Beretta 92 for Brazilian government. Minor changes were made to local specifications. Mostly to relocate the slide mounted safety to the frame (improvement in my opinion).
I like Taurus DA revolvers. They work and have lifetime warranty that goes with the gun rather than the owner.

I happen to own a Taurus single action revolver, I own a few Glocks too.
I always thought that Taurus used the S&W tooling to make their revolvers, but I guess they didn't. Like you said, completely different mechanisms. I'd never compared them side by side before.
Won't say that the Taurus method is inferior, but I will say it's different.
Did Taurus use Beretta tooling for their autos?
