Included in this lot is a Taurus PT 92 AF 9mm pistol. In 1974, a large contract for the Beretta 92 was issued by the Brazilian army, for which Beretta set up a factory in São Paulo, Brazil. This factory was later sold to the Brazilian gunmaker Taurus in 1980, after the contract had expired. Shortly thereafter, Taurus began using the original Beretta machinery to make their own pistols, which were a copy of the original Beretta 92 design, which was not being produced at that point. This Taurus PT 92 utilizes a 4 7/8” round blue’d barrel chambered in 9mm. The slide reads on the left “Taurus INT.MFG.INC. – Miami, FL.” while the right of the slide reads “FORJAS TAURUS S.A. – MADE IN BRAZIL – PT 92 AF – CAL. 9 mm PARA.” The firearm has the original factory blue and no noticeable signs of wear. The pistol is fixed with straight grain checkered walnut grips with bronze medallions reading “Taurus” and showing their trademark bull. This pistol has a double stack 9mm 15 round magazine and ambidextrous safety. Also included is the original box and owner’s manual. Serial Number: TNG01641. This is a modern firearm and requires a FFL transfer or NICS background check.
