There are plenty of modifications that you can do to enhance the performance of your firearms these days. The Beretta 92/96 series of pistols have their own of modifications available. Some are inexpensive and others are costly. Wilson combat is a big producer of products for 1911 and Beretta 92/96 series pistols. Usually the upgrades and services that they offer are not known to be inexpensive in the least. The Shok-Buff for the 1911 and the 92FS/96 is one of the few products that seems to fall in the category of affordable upgrades.
When selecting a pistol for defense, a huge emphasis is placed on reliability. This is of course an important trait, but I feel that it gets a little muddy. Many times it is valuable to look at the history of a pistol to see if it has a good record for reliability. But this should not be an all inclusive deciding factor when selecting a reliable pistol. I have owned alot of pistols that have poor track records for reliability, yet they never gave me serious issues. Conversely, the opposite has been true as well. So what is the answer? How can we decide if a pistol is reliable enough for defensive use?
