Bought a Nano this weekend at Chuck's Gun and Pawn in Warner Robbins, GA. Salesman named Clayton was very nice and helpful, even gave my son two Krispy Kreme doughnuts.
Price paid was $429.00 and Clayton gave me a discount for driving all the way from McDonough, for comparison Bud's Guns is selling the Nano for $475.
The Nano is a single stack 9mm, feels good in the hand even though it is very thin. Just left the range after firing 300 rounds of 124gr NATO, felt recoil was less than I expected out of
this small gun. Follow up shots were quite easy to perform as this gun seems to point quite naturally, at least for me. Take down of the Nano is very easy and does not require pulling the trigger
to do so. You can take a pen, punch or whatever else is small enough and press in a pin located on the frame to disconnect the firing pin.
You then can use a coin, screw driver or even a spent shell casing to turn the set screw above the trigger 90 degrees counter clockwise to release the slide forward. when reassembled the set screw
will reset to the locked position by just racking the slide.
The Nano is slightly shorter than a G26 and maybe a 1/16 of an inch longer in the grip but being a single stack it is much thinner and feels a lot better carried IWB.
Neat feature of the Nano is that the serialized portion of the gun is the trigger assembly, this can be removed from the grip by knocking out 3 pins. I guess Beretta will be offering different grip sizes,
colors and the sky is the limit I'd assume. Could get expensive as Beretta charges a good bit for accessories but it'll be interesting to see what becomes available.
Very happy with my purchase and would definitely recommend this as a primary conceal carry weapon. Forgot to mention that the Nano is DA only, long trigger pull but nothing that I didn't get used to
in about 10 rounds.
Thanks for looking,
Alan
