The 96A1 represents Beretta's evolution of the world famous 92FS pistol, the most tested and trusted personal defense weapon in history. The 96A1 features an internal recoil buffer, a captive recoil spring assembly, a rounded trigger guard, an integral MIL-STD 1913 rail, and a removable front sight. Three magazines come with each pistol, and are completely interchangeable with other 96 family magazines. This model comes with a 10-round magazine.

The firearm is not legal in the state of California unless you're exempt from the California approved handgun roster.
