[QUOTE="Wheel Gun, post: 2145738, member: 19286"] Have one and put another 100 rds through it yesterday. I like it. Early Nano's had a reputation for FTEs, but that's pretty much fixed now. I've heard that Beretta wants you to break the gun in, with the first 200 rounds of ammo having 124 gr bullets or larger. Supposedly, if you break one in that way, it will eat 115gr rounds afterwards without issue. I've only ever shot 124s throught it and have never had an FTE. As for my opinion of it, my problem is that I just don't have much to compare it to. I'm a revolver guy and have never really cared much for autos. This is the first I've owned. It's small, but not light, so take that into consideration. It's a full 20 ounces. Others who have shot my Nano say that, while small in the hand, it shoots like a larger auto. Lastly, it's got a short grip and that scares off some. That also means that the standard magazine holds only six rounds. Unless you have tiny hands, your pinky will be under the base of the magazine. They make an 8 round version with a rubber foot that would give you pinky a perch. As a matter of fact, new Nanos come with both the six- and the eight-round magazines, but mine came with a pair of sixes. However, I immediately got used to curling my pinky under the bottom of the grip and it feels good in my hand. Some Talon granulate grips help me hold onto it when it bucks. I'd recommend it.
