The Beretta 92XI SAO delivers enhanced trigger performance through its single-action-only design, building on the proven 92 series platform with modern upgrades. This desert tan variant combines tactical aesthetics with competition-grade functionality for serious shooters demanding precision and reliability.
What Makes This Different
The 92XI SAO eliminates the double-action trigger pull entirely, providing a consistent single-action break for every shot. The enhanced trigger system delivers a crisp 4.5-pound pull weight compared to the 12-pound DA pull of standard 92 models. Beretta's Vertec-style frame geometry improves ergonomics with a straighter backstrap angle and reduced trigger reach for better control across different hand sizes.
Key Features
- Single-action-only trigger system with 4.5-pound pull weight
- 4.7-inch cold hammer-forged barrel with enhanced rifling
- 18-round magazine capacity with flush-fit design
- Desert tan Cerakote finish over aluminum alloy frame
- Vertec grip frame with aggressive texturing panels

The 92XI SAO excels in competitive shooting environments where consistent trigger performance matters most. The single-action design reduces trigger reset distance and eliminates the transition between DA and SA modes that can affect accuracy. Law enforcement and military users appreciate the familiar manual of arms combined with improved precision capabilities for specialized applications.
