The Beretta M9A4 Centurion delivers proven military reliability in a modernized platform built for today's shooters. This latest evolution of the legendary M9 incorporates decades of battlefield feedback with contemporary enhancements that address real-world demands.
What Makes This Different
The M9A4 Centurion bridges the gap between the full-size M9 and compact models with its 5.1-inch barrel configuration. The optic-ready slide features precise machining for direct red dot mounting without adapter plates. Flat Dark Earth Cerakote finish provides superior corrosion resistance compared to standard Bruniton, while the updated polymer frame reduces weight by 0.8 ounces versus the traditional steel frame.
Key Features
- Optic-cut slide machined for direct mounting of popular red dot sights
- 18+1 capacity with flush-fit magazines and extended baseplate options
- Flat Dark Earth Cerakote finish over steel construction for enhanced durability
- Ambidextrous decocker safety allows safe carry with round chambered

Field performance centers on the proven DA/SA trigger system that military and law enforcement have trusted for decades. The 5.1-inch barrel delivers velocities within 50 fps of full-size variants while maintaining compact handling characteristics. Weather sealing protects internal components during adverse conditions, supporting the 40,000-round service life specification that made the M9 series legendary.
