Not Beretta M9, but M92.
Anyway the fact that blank firers CAN be converted to fire some form of live rounds, is of course not the point. The point is that, though it can be done it is difficult to do, and rare. As such, a law (or policy) targeting blank firers is ineffective at crime prevention.
Similar, the US federal judge who granted a recent legal stay on a California ban on >10 round AR mags, noted for instance that at a recent shooting no-one sought to rush the shooter when he swapped magazines. Limiting him to 10 round mags (if one could have done so) would have made no difference.
