Beretta Billenium

[sigs4me]

I have been looking for a Beretta Bilenium for a while and would like to see one in person. There are some for sale on line but I would like to handle one before spending $1500.00 plus. Dose anybody know of a store in Maryland that may have one or dose anybody have one that would be willing to let me take a look.

For those who do not know this is a pic of the one Beretta that eludes me.

$1500?!? better comes w/ golden bullets!!

its nice but way to expensive.

 

[guthook]

Wasn't 2003 the last year those were made?

Not likely someone will get off of one cheaply.

Try looking around at backyard BBQ's in New Jersey.

I like the safety in a 1911/USP type style position. Other than that...not worth $1500 to me.

What's the difference between this and a 92?

the price

It is single action only like a 1911 they were made only 2001. Also they only made about 200 of them. I agree that $1500 is a lot for a Beretta but I want it about 8 years ago they were going for $850 or so this is what I get for waiting too long the only Beretta commemorative that went up in price..

They apparently only made 2000 of them and they only made them from 2001-2003. It doesn't look all that special to me but I'm not a Beretta guy.

These Beretta pistols are nice but are made of Unobtanium.

I have been looking for the Beretta Stock 92 short,92 competition, Beretta Steel-1 and the Billenium. IMHO, the 92 short is the best, followed by the Steel-1.
These are single action only pistols that are designed for accurate high volume shooting.
The SIG X5 is a better choice but I like the lines of the Beretta's better.

I lol'd. Nice weapon, but like everyone else, I don't think I could justify the price.

Agreed the Sig P-226 X5 is the better gun but I already have one of those. The Beretta is just a missing piece of my collection And looks bad ass also..

 

[SCARCQB]

I also have an X5 and I'm not very impressed with it. I'm not a SIG fan but Got one in a offer that I can not refuse.

I would really like a 92-Stock or a 92 Steel-1. These are much better than the Billenium.

Steel vs Stock vs Combat Short

WRONG.. there were 2000 made and only 1000 shipped to the USA

If you find a Billenium, you might as well buy it. The single action beretta 92 pistols rarely come up on the used market.

Never having held a Billenium, I expect it to handle like an even heavier 92. I could probably hit the safety without changing my grip.

 

[Tconfo]

None on GB.

 

[Cerebus]

There are currently 4 of them on GB. $2k and up.
