But Beretta put their safety/decocking lever on the slide. A bad placement. Taurus fixed that, so like the 1911 the lever is on the frame ... and their copy is superior to the Beretta M9.
Initial beretta model 92’s had frame mounted safeties as well. Hell, the taurus model 92 is built on former beretta tooling in a factory formerly owned by beretta. Beretta changed the safety / decocker design after it sold the factory to taurus. The taurus is not a copy.
