Our dot disappeared.Dear Half-Mast, The M9 pistol The M9 handgun, formally Pistol, Semiautomatic, 9mm, M9, is a 9mm pistol of the U.S. military adopted in the 1980s. It is essentially a mil-spec Beretta 92F, later the 92FS. It won a competition in the 1980s to replace the M1911A1 as the primary handgun of U.S. comes from the manufacturer with a white dot on both the front and rear sights that helps the shooter sight. But over time the white dots disappear. Does a missing dot deadline the pistol? Can we replace dots ourselves? E.P. Dear E.P., Lack of dots on the sights does not deadline an M9. If you think the dots help your shooting, use any good white metal enamel paint enamel paint n → esmalte m enamel paint n → vernice f a smalto after a thorough cleaning to put dots back on the sights. Same thing goes for the red safety/fire dot under the de cocker safety. Half-Mast |
