Did I imagine this or was a link posted here a while back on some surplus Beretta 92s (not the 96s that have been popping up on all the popular surplus spots)?

Either I've never paid attention, or I've never seen a slant dust cover on a 92fs. The one I had and all I've seen so far, looked exactly like that pic. Am I the only person who hasn't seen one?

Edit: I googled a picture, it's very slight so maybe I just never noticed it before.

They introduced the slant to strengthen the receiver for the 40 SW.

The slant is very gradual, thus not always obvious in pictures. However, if you have one with a slanted dustcover next to one with a straight dustcover, it is readily observed. No big deal to me personally; straight is just a bit more "old school" I guess.

Its also indicative of an older model with less plastic parts in it.

Here's a decent comparison for those who are curious (like I was)
