[edit] Servicing
The firearm is disassembled and reassembled in the same order. When you pull back the slide it locks in. The magazine release is on the right side of the frame which may make it difficult for users who take their finger off the trigger to not drop the magazine.
[edit] Carbine Conversion Kit
In 2004, Beretta developed a conversion kit that allows the user to convert their U22 Neo into a carbine rifle. The kit includes a skeletonized buttstock, a fiberglass-reinforced polymer grip, a 16-1/4" barrel, adjustable rear sight, Tru-Glo fiber optic front sight, and an integrated Weaver-Style Rail. No gunsmithing is required to assemble.
