I experienced one failure to eject (FTE) with Winchester white box and one failure to feed (FTF) shooting Remington UMC. Hornady Critical Defense (only one box of 25rds) – 115gr FTX, 1140 fps Winchester (white box) – 115gr FMJ, 1190 fps Here’s the skinny on the ammo I fed the gun: Any Nano packer should give serious consideration to swapping out the stock three dot sights for some proper night sights.ĭown at the range, I fired 800 rounds of 115gr ammo through the Nano-a diet that would give the Kimber Solo a bad case of reflux disease. Beretta claims that all you need is a small (1.3mm) hex wrench to pop in new sights on your own.
For me, target re-acquisition is slower than it would be with a dot and post arrangement (like the set-up on Beretta’s beefier M9). The Nano’s sights are unremarkable three dotters. If center of mass follow-up shots at five yards-plus are a high priority - and why wouldn’t they be - the Nano is the right answer. As always, there’s a trade-off between concealed carry comfort and muzzle rise/shooting accuracy. That’s almost an ounce heavier than a similarly robust (if more elegant) Kimber Solo Carry and the (plenty cheaper) Ruger LC9. The polymer-and-steel framed mini-nine tips the scales at just under 18 oz. The Nano 9mm may be small and smooth, but it’s not the lightest gun of its type. An extended magazine is only a matter of time the less the better. The Nano’s grip can be completely replaced. Shooters with paws for thought may want to wait until Beretta or an aftermarket supplier releases a customized frame capable of accommodating XXL hand sizes. Interestingly, Beretta laser-etched the gun’s serial number on the gun’s chassis instead of the grip frame. Depending on the size of your mitts, the Nano’s report may be best appreciated as the sound of one hand defending. The gun leaves smaller-handed women (like yours truly) struggling for pinky purchase. The Nano is strictly a two-finger salute to Mr. You can use hotter ammo, but you better hold on tight. Combat reload? Good luck with that.Īlong with the Kahr CM9, the BU9 is +P rated. Fortunately, Beretta includes a spare magazine in the deal, encouraging Nano packers to double-up on ammo for any worst case scenario. The Nano packs a scant 6+1 rounds of your favorite flavor of nine mil. Like any little single stacker, the Beretta Nano challenges its owners to concentrate (even more carefully) on shot placement.
