Are these 92 clones any good? It looks very tempting at under $400

I think the feedback has been positive that I've seen, but just to play devil's advocate, the various models of the 92X series have been going for $598 at Euro Optic lately.... $200 extra for Italian vs. Turkish might be worth it. Plus the X series' upgrades (grip, sights, magwell) are nice.
True but comparing apples to apples, you would have to step up to the M9A3 to get the rail etc...that's over $800.
I've looked at them at a shop, didn't notice any red flags.
Most turk guns are very good quality, I'd definitely give one a try. Local to me they were $350.
Not true. I have an M9A1, 92A1, and 92X compact with rails but I don't want to hijack your thread so ... Feedback on the Regard from the Beretta 92 facebook group and forums is overwhelmingly positive. I don't have one because I don't like finger grooves; they never seem to line up right for me. I actually prefer the grip with the hump (92FS, M9A1, etc) so between the Regard and 92X, I'd say to get the Regard. Especially if you just want a rail, like finger grooves, and aren't concerned with night sights, threaded barrels, etc.
This is pretty cool. That's a lot of gun for $477.

I had a Tisas 1911 (I believe they are the same company) and quality/reliability was very good (only reason I sold was getting out of .45)
