Want To Buy WTB: Beretta 96 Elite II

[ParrotPirate]

Pretty specific, but I have a project in mind and I want a .40sw Beretta with a Brigadier slide. The Elite II is really what I’m after, but I would consider a regular Brig or first gen Elite for the right price. Thanks!

Dr. Gun Supply on North MacArthur Blvd. in OKC has a 96 Elite for sale... Pretty sweet looking one too... Has the wooden wrap around finger grove grips on it...

Good looking out, but I actually saw that listed on Armslist. First Gen Elite is not my first pick for this project so I would be hesitant to pay what they are asking, but if the price was right I’d buy a regular Elite. I am pleased to see that people do read these WTB ads though, so if nothing else you have given me some hope. I really do appreciate the heads up.

You probably know this, but the Elite series brings top $$$$ on the used market. If you find one under $1K snag it ASAP. A large portion of the used 92 Elite and Elite II were bought up by Bill Wilson of Wilson Combat several years back, he was then adding his Wilson Combat flair and reselling them.

It would need to be a pretty stellar 9mm Elite II for me to shell out $1000. That said, if anyone has a stellar 9mm Elite II I would be interested. I am a big fan of 90-series Berettas and that is a variant I don’t have.
