Not Quite What It Appears

Remember the Beretta Cougar?  The 8000 series?
 
Rotary locking barreled spawn of the 92 series?
 
Anyone?  Anyone?
 
Beretta stopped trying to sell them in the USA and set up a factory in Turkey for their subsidiary Stoeger to market here.
 
Stoeger Cougar 8040F Inox on loan from The Chomps Collection.
 


 It's got that same horse pistol feel as the 92 series, but shorter framed.


The 8040F has a safety decocker and is chambered in .40 S&W.  2.3 lb. loaded with 11+1 rounds of your favorite load.

"They" say, on the internet so it must be true, that the magazines for Berettas don't work in the Cougar without some modification.  I don't have a .40 Beretta to check with.

    I liked the Stoeger version I had quite a lot, but I divested myself of it when I dropped my support for .40 S&W.

    If I had gotten it in 9mm, I'd still have it.

    I do still have the tactical tupperware version (aka PX4).
