The PT-99 is a modern upgrade of the classic Beretta 92F (or M9 for US
Military) pistol. The main departure from the 92F is the relocation
of the safety/decocker from the slide to the frame. This allows for
both traditional DA/SA operation of the PT-99 or ‘cocked and locked’
carry with the hammer back. Priced under $500, it is very competitive
on price with a Beretta and features Taurus’s lifetime warranty.
