Built with all the features and superior accuracy demanded by shooters competing in International Practical Shooting Confederation (IPSC) events and in a wide array of target competitions, the Gold Series of Beretta Combat, Stock, Target and Gold standard pistols provide participants everywhere with a formidable competitive edge.

The New 92,96 and 98 Combat Competition Pistols feature the heavier Brigadier slide for improved balance and lower felt recoil. Front serrations on the slide enable easier racking. The Combat is a single action only pistol with an extended, ambidextrous frame-mounted safety. With the safety lever on, the Combat can be carried in the cocked-and-locked position. A 150mm/5.9 inch barrel with weight is standard. A 125mm/4.9 inch competition barrel version is available. The Combat also features a rubber magazine bumper and comes with fitted ABS cases for transport.

Beretta Combat Pistols are loaded with features: Extended reversible magazine release button. Beveled magazine well. Accurizing barrel bushing replaceable for wear. Ultra-thin, fine checkered grips, with aluminum grips optional. Machined checkering on front and back straps. Radiused back strap. A fully adjustable rear target sight and a tool kit are included. The Combat pistol features a competition-tuned trigger with extra-short let-off and over-travel adjustment.

The 92, 96 and 98 Stock Competition Pistols are also based on the Brigadier and are identical to the Combat, with some key variations. The Stock is a single-double action pistol with half-cock notch than can be carried in the cocked-and-locked position. A 125mm barrel is standard. Three interchangeable front sights are included.

The 98FS Target Pistol features a 150mm/5.9 inch barrel with an aluminum counterweight sleeve, micrometrically adjustable sights and semi-anatomics grips in walnut with "orange peel" anti-slip finish.

New Competition Conversion Kit makes it possible to convert the standard 92FS into a competition target pistol. The kit includes a long (150mm/5.9 inch) barrel with counterweight and elevated front sight, semi-anatomic grips in walnut and fully adjustable rear sights. It comes in a special carrying case for the pistol, the conversion kit and assorted accessories.

The Model 89 Gold Standard .22 Target Pistol is a sophisticated single-action target pistol designed for both competition shooting and range training. The gun features a heavy, fixed Monobloc barrel, cold-hammered and machined from a single block of steel. The barrel is locked in position through the counterweight that enhances balance, thus avoiding barrel-frame interplay and providing superior accuracy. The manual safety is ambidextrous. Front and rear sights are attached directly to the competition barrel. The rear sight is fully adjustable for both windage and elevation, and the front sight is interchangeable in three widths. Trigger pull on the 89 Gold Standard is very fine, light and crisp. The trigger has the capability to be adjusted precisely for overtravel to enhance control and accuracy. Walnut grips with thumb rest are standard.
