I purchased a PX4 Storm in 45acp about 5 years ago. After years and thousands of rounds, it has been extremely reliable...and I never had an issue with the safety.
I have one in 9mm, one in .45, and one in .40. All 3 have been excellent. Thousands of rounds through all 3. No real malfunctions. I hate that you have had problems with yours.
Fui Gebhardt I have it in 40 and never had a problem
I’ve had mine since around 2008 or the 2009 & had that gun in the 9mm with NO malfunctions ever since with thousands+ rounds through it & I JUST love it & never giving it up with being an EDC & home defense gun as well but MOSTLY it’s an EDC, it’s a great gun with a few MODS to it from Beretta’s website & got Alien Gear Holsters holster as well I use for it, it JUST love it. I give this gun a TOTAL 9.5 to a 10 & sometimes a 10 but the only thing I didn’t like is that they could’ve at least made the mag release button just a tiny bit bigger or longer but still love it & never had any malfunctions through it. But it is these two idiots saying it’s the guns fault but in my opinion it’s them bc they just CAN’T aim the freakin gun at their targets, lol.
No need even mentioning a .45. On this site everything is 9mm, the guy doesn't even know the 357 Sig and .40 even exist.
"Thousands of rounds", people say this so much, everywhere, all the time.
If you shoot striker all the time, this gun takes some getting in time and feel with. This gun excels for those of us who shoot double action revolvers. Has great ergonomics easy slide release and mag release. Our family has seven of them as our go to gun. Tried glocks, xds, p99s and others but preferred the px4 because we shoot revolvers mostly double action.The long first pull is not foreign to us, it is also safer in pressure situation because of long pull. We use safety levers to rack gun, ours are decocker only. The levers are another option to rack your gun if you injure a hand. This is a combat gun, that's why it is matched to the cx4 carbine. So go easy on Eric and Chad if they shot it all the time they would shoot it better.
I like how y'all make real, honest reviews- expressing your actual opinions and experiences with guns. However, it isn't the gun in this case, guys. Poor trigger control and recoil anticipation equals missed shots no matter what handgun is being fired. There is a difference between accuracy, and the shooters ability to shoot the gun accurately.
Well stated.....
Agree. I can tell the guy jerked the trigger a couple times. The PX4 Storm has a harder trigger pull than a lot of other guns. I think it's like 12 lbs the first time and 6 after that. If you are used to a striker fire with a crisp trigger pull, you may have a harder time with this trigger which is this guy's problem I think.
@@howiefelterup329 You are a little off on the trigger pull. I saw a video breakdown of this gun. The DA pull is around 8 and the SA is only like 2.5
I have carried the PX4 Compact for almost a year now. It shoots great. I have never had an issue with the safety, and I just put about 1200 rounds through it during a two-day Concealed Carry Tactics class five weeks ago. Not a single issue. It's a trooper.
Definitely, one of the most underrated DA/SA firearms out there. I love mine and i shoot it better than any other DA/SA I have owned, aside from my Legion 229.
Craig Wildfeuer i concur
My PX4 Storm was one of my best firearm purchases. Excellent quality and reliability.
I agree, it really never got the attention it deserves.
I love mine! It’s fun to shoot, and never lets me down.
try a CZ ;)
I did the G conversion on mine and I much prefer it that way
What he said.
Used your vid as a guide and converted mine. Much better as a de-cocker. Cheers.
shopped around for the G series , I like my guns w a decock SA/DA. I put the competition trigger upgrade in and the pull weight came down significantly but still lots of travel in the trigger.
Mrgunsngear Channel have you ever shot the PX4 Storm SD Type F?
fuck you bald egg man
The thing is that they are used to their pistols kicking more and are anticipating that. You can see them tensing and pulling the shots. The rotating barrel of the px4 changes some of the upward recoil to rotational recoil which your arm absorbs naturally.
I would have to agree with you sir! I have found that out as well, when others shoot my PX4. People are anticipating that sharper recoil impulse and tend to slap the trigger.
This is why I want this gun. Tired of my Glock 19’s muzzle flip and recoil.
Here's the problem with your all's review you are bashing a gun that you've used once just for this video the safety is not an issue if you train so here's an idea take the Glock out of your waistband put it down for a couple months and put a PX4 Storm and its place once you train and learn that system then do a review
Thank you I love my Springfield XD but I put it down and started carrying my Beretta Storm and now it's my new favorite piece.
I agree. So, I have my RUclips settings with auto play off yet for some reason this video started just after I watched the first shots video of the PX4 by Honest Outlaw. It’s funny cause he loved it and was very accurate with it. By contrast, their shots( just like this video review) are all over the place. Chad hit with every round on his second magazine but kept complaining about the fact that this gun is not striker fired and it’s also not a Glock. I’m normally a huge fan of this channel but their biases are sooo obvious. This reminds of of Hickok45’s review of the Chiappa Rhino revolver. He mentions his love of Smith&Wesson and calls the Italian revolver ugly. He then goes on to shoot every target on his range with accuracy, yet he still can’t get over the esthetics of the Rhino!
I ve carried alot of diffrent styles and brands. I agree completely. Any shooter ought to be able to push that pistol to its full potential
Yes cz 75 are easier for most shooters certainly steel framed.
I m just saying guys like yourself (mee:) might be looking at a larger picture.
I love my PX4! It's very, very comfortable to shoot. It speaks volumes that PX4 owners are so universally passionate about the PX4, regardless of reviews.
One of the most under rated pistols on the market.
It is a great gun, extremely reliable , high quality top shelf Beretta
I own two 92's and 2 PX4's. I've had no reliability issues with any of them. If I had to make a choice between the 92/M9 and the PX4, I'd take the PX4 any day of the week. To me it's just a more ergonomic handgun.
I know this comment is kinda old now, but how is the muzzle flip on the Px4 as opposed to the 92? I have a 92 now but I'm thinking of picking up a Px4, as from what I can tell, the muzzle flip is a lot less.
My wife came home with one about six years ago. She walked into a place called Bowers in Fresno to buy tennis balls and racket tape (It's a sporting goods store). She said it was on sale and was 'cute' (WTF). I have to admit, she is really good with it.
On 2Wheels yeah when the misses wants something that goes bang the first thing is it's cute then can I get a laser for it bah its crazy that they can match her car an her favorite Ccw lol
In her defense, the gun has alot of sexy angles to it.
Am I the only one that noticed Eric resetting his grip 99.5% of the time and chad jerking the trigger? What’s sad is this is my wife’s gun and she is dead on balls accurate with it over 30 yards. For the amount y’all shoot, I figure fundamentals would come natural...
mike333h na. These goofs practice bad shooting so they only get worse. And they have the audacity to comment on the accuracy of the gun when they don’t have a clue what they’re doing.
Lol
@@trijigon he’s literally an Iraq veteran ur one to talk smh yt comment warrior
The gun is more accurate than you.
Probably the most underrated pistol on the market. Too bad Beretta failed to offer more parts and accessories for it. The rotating barrel means you cant put a suppressor on it. Other than that it shoots soft, works great and isn’t picky about what ammo you put in it.
That's why if you got the cash you can grab the LTT model
@@regulator7931 I have and LTT and it is a great gun. I also have 92 LTT best guns ever.
The contrived concern over the Beretta safety is total BS. It's a double action / single action gun (because it has an exposed hammer). A round should always be in the chamber, just like a revolver. When it comes time to reload (put a new magazine in), the slide release should always be used as the gun was designed. M9 haters are completely illogical. Double action allows the pistol to be fired quickly (in an emergency). Single action allows the pistol to be fired accurately with the very first round. There is no scenario where the M9 or the smaller model you are showing here will need to be racked in any kind of emergency (with accidental engagement of the safety). Double action only is a major compromise, comparatively, whether in a revolver or in a pistol. Exposed hammers kick ass because they are safer, more accurate, and provide more options to the shooter.
rwc1234x exactly. You have more options. I like racking the slide with it on safe so when I carry it off safe the hammer is already down. 12 pound trigger pull with a firing pin safety is more comforting to carry for me personally.
People with smaller hands can struggle to get up to the slide release, especially under pressure. With gloves on (speaking about the M9) I personally found it challenging to release the slide without changing my grip on the gun and in a high pressure situation would prefer to rack the slide on a reload anyway. Would prefer to rely on gross motor skills while reloading in a close range pistol fight. I would agree with IV8888 on this one.
Could not agree more.
I mean, the big question is if they had a safety or a decocker, from what I see the newer models have a decocker, or reset safety, where the safety always returns to DA. The older is literally a manual safety that needs to be disengaged.
I do agree, no one should complain about a the slide safety, proper training and more importantly understanding your battery of arms will mitigate any disadvantages.
Man this pistol is so slept on. Glad i got it !!
And i never had issues with the safety coming down before a shot or racking the slide. The bat wings make that impossible imo.
Pistols are like shoes. Gotta find what fits your hands as close as possible.
I use a Px4 Storm Compact in .40 caliber as my daily carry. I put in the lighter 8000 cougar hammer spring and the DPM recoil system along with the G type safety. It shoots like a .22 caliber now as far as recoil and it is super accurate. My wife liked it so much she got one for herself and had me put on the same options. It is a great gun and it shoots great.
Nancy, the safety is NOT an issue. Whatever gun you use, TRAIN!
This boys is what happens when Glock fanboys get their hands on a real gun
oscar trujillo bahaha.... I had one of these but I'm a glock fan boy...
These are great guns... Very accurate
oscar trujillo define "real gun".
Alaskan Ballistics lol I have a Glock as well I just couldn’t help myself to not troll them 😂
oscar trujillo lol. I like them all.,, 4 Glock's though
FlyTour69 A handgun with a hammer and not a nerf gun action? 😉 just kidding I really don’t care what people shoot but there is no question hammer fired guns take more skill to master than a striker fired gun. Striker fired guns are tools hammer fired guns are for serious gun enthusiast in my opinion.
Eric's strengths are in his gun community connections and his technical knowledge of firearms. Marksmanship, not so much. Flinching and Chad routinely outdoing Eric...
We still love you Eric.
Thanks for your service.❤
PX4's are tack drivers. Have a full-sized 9mm and that thing hits the mark every time. Field stripping can actually be done one handed. Not that you need to do that, but it's that easy.
I've had a px4 storm type f in 40sw since December 2013. Always ran flawlessly and has honestly never had a single malfunction. And it was my first handgun but I find accuracy to be perfectly fine even to this day.
Fui Gebhardt I'm sorry that's been your experience with the gun. Not the case with my own.
Not mine either. You may be limp wristing
Highstranger951 I've had a very similar experience to the OP, runs flawless. As to the person having problems, not sure if limp wristing would be the issue. Took my 90 pound lady friend out shooting several guns, including a .40 PX4. Her second experience shooting, a couple weeks after her first time with her pops. She went through several mags without issue. Unrelated, but I just have to say, that girl is a natural with a rifle😍💓 doesn't want me to upload the video on youtube though😔
One thing I’ll tip my hat to with mine is that it’s the most reliable handgun I’ve ever owned. It’s even good with really underpowered loads due to not having a tilting barrel. I’ve tried underpowered loads that made my Glocks, Kahrs, and Sigs have FTE or stovepipe at least 2 per magazine, but my PX4 kept on truckin’.
After CZ75SP01 this Beretta FX4 Storm is the most comfortable pistol I ve ever held in my life. Super comfortable grip for my medium sized hands and very sweet and smooth shooter. The only thing that seemed a bit uncomfortable first was the long travel of the trigger. But once you get used to it, it becomes very accurate. Just enjoyed shooting it. Try it guys
I recently bought a PX4 compact in .40sw as a companion for the 92FS. Best tag team I've ever owned.
“I can’t say it’s necessarily me” yet in the first 20 seconds of the video I saw some pretty intense recoil anticipation flinching
The safety Decocker is a great safety feature. The double action trigger allows u to make damn sure before u intend to fire unlike a Glock. My wife loves this PX4 because of the safety feature.
.
There are also differences with the G and F models. Eric would probably be happy with the G model instead of the F model. F has a decocker and safety that stays in the safety position. The G model is only a decocker and would not have the issue he complained about @7:14
@dorzak975 My wife prefers the F model for that extra safety measure. It's an additional piece of mind. Of course you still have to train yourself thru muscle memory to disengage the safety. The average person who's not into Firearms tends to like the F model. I'm sure others prefer the G model. Whatever fits your comfort that's most important.
I chose the G model and have been very happy with the firearm. Having learned to shoot semi-auto pistols on Sigs in the 90s, the DA/SA Decocker ergonomics of the G works perfectly.
I just bought the PX four storm compact and it’s amazing how soft it shoots and how accurate it is it makes me not want to buy another handgun anymore. This is my go to I’m done buying I’ll buy other types of guns but for handgun this felt so good I see why there is a cult following with the PX four storm compact.
Ernest Langdon have one hearing 50k rounds. If you don't know who Ernest Langdon is he's is a pro shooter for Beretta.
Dylan Watkins he surpassed 50k last week.
This is classic case of da/sa vs a glock fan. Usually your videos you are a little more versed in the gun.
You don't even have to pull the gun back to break it down for one.
mike wall it's true. They clearly didn't do any research on it.
In my experience I've never had a issue with decocking the firearm when racking the slide. I got the gun out and you can do it if you intentionally manipulate it. However I think it's a non issue.
Fui Gebhardt you just have fragile fingers bud, I’m pretty sure that doesn’t make it terrible
Dana, the safety levers aren't exactly dull. This is the only firearm I've ever seen that appears to be designed to also slice and dice. It's why I changed them to the stealth levers (and went decock only).
These are amazing guns. My .40 has outperformed everything else I've seen.
How is its recoil? Any better 40 you know? P229? Thanks.
@@jaycee30865 recoil takes some getting used to if you're shooting the sub compact version like mine but it's definitely manageable. Went out to the range for the first time with it and after about 50 rounds through it I started getting some great groupings at 20 and 40 yards.
I just purchased one this past Friday and thanks to living in Kommifornia, I can't pick it up until next Monday. I ordered the low profile kit and a stainless steel guide rod that will arrive the day I pick up the PX4.
This is laughable. Eric shoots the gun fairly well and talks about how he likes it with exception to the safety. Chad can't shoot it for shit, blames the gun (this gun is praised for its accuracy) and bandwagon Eric all of sudden has issues with it too. This is video is almost as bad as the Rex video.
agreed 100%
Capt Obvious my xd 9mm was great the first box i put thru it. after that i couldn't hit shit with it and the recoil was high. gun itself i good but 9mm is a shit round.
Guns& Odin *you’re
Capt Obvious my px4 shoots more straight then my hands are steady unfortunately. I love this handgun. A less heavy m9 with 2 extra rounds for less used.
Capt Obvious, I noticed the same thing. They seem to both be bandwagon types who cannot admit that one shot well and the other shot for shit. Not a very good video.
Imma glock fan, love my 23 and my 43x...but i love my px4 storm!! Had it for 10 years, Never had any malfunctions and never ever had a saftey issue! Train train train!! Love the trigger reset, and short trigger pull, makes for accurate shots...stage the hammer like you do on a sig and you cant punch the center everytime!!
The PX4 Is an outstanding pistol and the action is buttery smooth. Once carried by the MD State Police.
I have the compact px4 and it rock
I have personally always been a fan of the storm and it was one of the few hand guns I've shot that I could hit much with not that I'm any kind of a trick shot or anything. But it seemed fairly accurate for me. And the recoil impulse seemed Smooth
I have the PX4 storm in the .40 comp. and I have no issues with it or the DA/SA it is my main CC along with my 1911 C3 and I agree with Craig Wildfeuer' The must underrated DA/SA pistol on the market. And I respect personal opinion. Good video.
I own one and converted it to a decocker only with decockers that sit almost flush and removed the right side slide release and put in a D trigger spring
I have a Storm .40 cal. & love it. Great shooter & no issues. I prefer the G mod for sure though.
I absolutely love my Beretta 92's and I've been meaning to get a hold of one of these. The safety location isn't my favourite either but meh they've never caused me an issue, despite everyone's constant moaning about them
Anybody else notice Eric's weird trigger reset and pull? I'm no expert but, that may be why Chad usually shoots a pistol better. I've always noticed Eric's weird reset in all of the videos. Love these guys and the work they do, keep up the good work!
dadeo3162 where he keeps the trigger held then resets and fires in 1 motion?
john m yeah exactly!
I know right
dadeo3162 yeah its kinda weird alright, i noticed chad flinching in this vid too when the gun doesnt go off.
Red your comment and saw it in the slow motion but in the normal speed stuff you hear an audible reset then a pause and he fires. Maybe he changes it for the slowmo to save time or something?
I've had a PX4 for about 8 years, and I love the gun. Never had any issues, seems to like most 9mm brands, and disassembles easily. Fits my hand nicely and I've experienced it to shoot straight. As Eric said, it may not be for everyone, but for me, it's definitely a keeper.
The subcompact PX4 does not have a rotating barrel. Just the Compact and full size rotate. Not sure if you mentioned this or not. If you did, I apologize I must have missed it.
Have had my compact for about 5 months now and have over 1400 rounds through this gun and it's never had any problem
I'm glad you have an honest opinion, even if it's bad.
Eric..... Holy flinch Batman
I've owned a PX4 inox full size in .40 for almost 3 years. It's the weapon I carry most days. My trip to the range this past weekend put me over 3500 rounds through the gun with not a single malfunction. I've read some comments here about this pistol being inaccurate, and I'm no expert marksman by any stretch of the imagination, but I find that I shoot my PX4 with better speed and accuracy than my other pistols. It fits my hand well, and the recoil is very manageable. I've been very happy with this gun.
I've carried the 40 cal many years now and never mishandled the safety. Also if you are trying to rack your slide in order to get in a fight it's already too late and you're dead.
This is exactly how I have felt about this pistol. I am a huge 92 fan and was extremely excited by the PX4 when I got my hands on it. It felt great, but when I shot it, I couldn't have been more disappointed. The accuracy I had come to expect from the 92 wasn't there. My take on it was the rotating barrel design vs the tip up barrel operation. There is a reason may different pistols are made. They fit for different people in a different way. They are tools and should be thought of that way. The right tool for the right person is the key to success. You can't blame Eric and Chad for their opinion on this particular pistol. If you like it and it works for you, get it and enjoy. If not, find what works and go with that.
If you train with it, you’ll be fine. This was my duty sidearm for many years, and never had a single issue. But I trained with it.
Eric, you do know that the safety on the px4 and 92 is a cam safety that rotates a pin so that the hammer drops on a solid piece of of steel rather than on the pin, hence the decocker feature and the single /double action, the guns are designed to safely carry one in the chamber, unlike the Glock,especially the gen 1 and 2 which are notorious for going off on their own.
Got my wife one of these she picked it over a ton of other guns. After holding it I see why.
I have a PX4 Storm and I love it. You give me any firearm and I can adapt and be accurate.
Nice!! I've been back and forth on getting one of these for a few years.
ChamberedElite77 get one. You won’t regret it.
There is not a more accurate or reliable handgun.
At least Eric knows he can't shoot da/sa haha.
It's kind of sad that this gun has been hugely overlooked. It's a damn tack driver for me and very reliable. Beretta really needs to expand on the rotating barrel technology into concealed carry arms.
I pick my compact up Tuesday. Think I'm really going to like this one.
I have CZ’s 75’s & P10C, Sig 229, HK’s and other great shooting guns, and this PX Storm full size if a fantastic shooter. I took it to the range and shot the first mag OK the second mag first two shots in the same hole bullseye. It is a very accurate and great shooter. Mine is 9MM.
As far as the decocker/ saftey when loading a magazine, racking the slide and accidentally engaging it is because your brain is trained to grab the serrated slide. It is far easier/faster/ergonomic to grab both ears on the decocker to rack the slide. 100% positive grab. But I understand novices go through a learning curve-LOL
C Kim THANK YOU! There is no way to criticize it.
A great gun for home defense. Love the fact I can have a round in the chamber and not worry about accidental trigger pull. I did switch-out the factory safety for a 92 style and the flip from safe to fire is better. Adding some Talon Grips improves grip & feel tremendously. And lastly some Truglo night sights and a StreamLight TLR-2. The only negative was replacing the sights.... a motherF*$# to remove.
Short Version: "OMG, it's not a Glock; surprised it even shoots!" Way too much &itching! FYI: you can easily change the gun to eliminate the safety -- surprised you didn't know that. If it's not grouping well, it's not the gun! I don't see the value in "the first shots, ever" sessions. Hickok45 always shoots the guns awhile before the video rolls. I'm done here. TD
Both shooters in this video LOOK like they've never shot a pistol before!
Yeah. The universal advice to have a dependable firearm when it will matter is "practice with your gun". Then we have plenty of "This is the first time i shoot this gun" videos and "Oh, I'm not used with the reset", "Oh, really the slide release is there? I wasn't expecting it" and even "How i'm supposed to field strip this?". Cause obviously, in a dire situation, you are going to find loaded handguns lying on the ground like in a first-person shooter video game, and you'll have to choose carefully the one with wich you can double-tap the first time you handle it.
Love the P4 Storm great pistol. Quality that i expect from Beretta..
I totally agree with the video. I did not like the safety either. However, I was able to get a C model with no manual safety in 45ACP. I love it. It is combat accurate for home defense and reliable!
This is the 1st handgun I purchased. Of all the others I've acquired since then (striker fired/revolvers) I am more accurate with it than any others. Safety has NEVER been an issue.
Just got one of these pistols into the shop yesterday. Agree the grip is really comfortable, can't wait to shoot it! Just something off topic, I would love to see a meltdown vid on the LMT MARS-L upper. It has just become the standard issue rifle here in New Zealand and some people say it's the most advanced AR-15 type on the market. Would love to see it in action!
I actually just bought one of these today. Saw a used one at my local shop that came with a case and 2 mags. I love it honestly. Don’t think it’ll be a good suppressor host with that twisting barrel. But right out of the box at the range with some cheap blazer ammo felt spectacular.
Eric, I noticed that you naturally grab "hand over" but you very intentionally grabbed from behind and pulled to get the safety to fall during cocking. I have always been aware of the slide safety issue alleged to haunt the m9 and my d.c. is a px4. In 25 years and probably literally more than a million rounds, I've never actually experienced the problem with a Beretta. That absolutely does not mean it doesn't happen, but the way I look at it goes along with the way I explain the Storm and M9 to everyone: it's not a newbies gun, it's not an amateurs gun, it's not a part timers gun. It's a complicated and specific tool for someone who trains constantly to do a specific job and after doing that for years, I guess I just got comfortable with it. I have found two problems with the px4 after carrying it for more than 5 years: it's accuracy is ammo sensitive to a fault and the coating on the slide does not survive direct skin contact concealed inside the belt. I had to recoat mine. It is reliable and with the right ammo it's accurate from zero to 100 yards. For most people, it's not the bee's knees. For me, it's m9-esque function that actually conceals well in a full size gun. ..my two cents.
This video is old. They must record all of them in the summer and dump them in the winter.
Interesting. I'm a little confused at the problems you two had. I have a compact 9mm version of the PX4 and it's accurate as all be. Not sure what's going on. Maybe the Glockitis is having a bigger effect on you than we thought.
I've have a PX4 Storm compact I've done a lot of modifications to it not that I had to gun performed flawlessly stock I just wanted to make it the best I can I personally love it one of the best guns I've ever owned and stout I think these boys are just Striker fire Guys plain and simple you can see it nothing wrong with that though but this gun is totally awesome
I love my Beretta PX4 Storm compact the sights are dead on very accurate and low recoil,,plus the rotating barrel is unbeatable..
My 92fs is the most accurate 9mm I own but yes I did upgrade it with all metal internals and the G conversion besides a good pair of g10 hogue grips! It's a badass gun now but damn near cost what a 92a3 cost but with the D spring and a trigger job you can't hate on it it's a bad ass piece of hardware for old-school technology definitely my favorite 9mm if I had a SHTF pistol it would be it
This was my second firearm purchase and by far my favorite polymer handgun. There is just something about the weight and the way the recoil hits you right in the palm instead of flipping up that I really enjoy. I learned how to take my time and how to do a proper trigger press on this pistol. I wish this would have been my first pistol I made a mistake by buying a single stack compact slim 9. Shooting that carry gun really ingrained some bad habits my first few months shooting and I'm still working hard to go slow and just squeeze the trigger and not tense up or flinch. Thanks for the review!
IT'S THE LENGTH OF PULL (BACK STRAP!) They probably have shorter length of pull in the grips which is causing trouble with accuracy... change it to large back strap and they should have the pin point accuracy with PX4 and it's not the trigger that's causing them to miss.
Been watching the videos for a year now, have learned a bunch and have been entertained at the same time. Keep up the good work boys!
I too g-converted mine as well as shaved the de-cocker levers on the belt sander. A touch of cold blue and it’s like factory low pro levers.
And you don’t have to pull back on the slide for disassembly
I have never had an issue with the safety location on a Beretta 92/PX4, I have been through several classes, IDPA, amd 3 Gun. Not once have I ever engauged the safety when racking the slide, I have heard people say it could cost a soldiers life, but there is no evidence this has ever happened.
I actually rented one of these.. I was VERY impressed.. After an adjustment, I was shooting a 6" group at 50yds.. From a rental..lol Single action wasn't even that bad. I loved it..
Had my px4 compact in 9mm, i loved the feel and its in my opinion the best looking pistol made. Like a ferrari. But... mine had many mechanical issues and i got rid of it. Went glock 19. I wish i would have kept it and resolved the issues. What a beautiful pistol
I hate video's/reviews that whine and cry about the safety then neglect to mention you can get the decocker/no safety version. Also your misses can be your trigger pull. And you appear to be re gripping after every shot.
My father carried ine as a police officer in Suffolk va for 6 years and he hated it, it always had problems with the rotating bolt locking in place once he got past 1000 rounds. He is retired now and got to buy it for a $1 but put it in the safe and hasn't touched it since. he always carrys his G43 now like i do.
You nailed it. I have a PX4 Onyx and the safety placement is the only gripe I have about it.
I have over 3k rounds through my PX4 with ZERO hangups, misfires, or stovepipes. An outstanding firearm for the price. An Italian sports car of a pistol, for an American sedan price.
aw shit, the pistol i requested actualy came after the previous one :O never felt so listened to in my life! :D
Great pistol, I have one and I really love it and my C X 4 Storm carbine take the same magazines. Both have worked flawless for me. Italian styling is sexy too.
I've shot one of these and loved it. I was pretty accurate with it too. I'm curious about the C type though. I don't think I've seen anyone review that. That may suit those who like striker fired guns, no?
Almost 10 thousand rnds in and I still have had no safety malfunctions as of 2022. Got it in 08. No issues at all. Mine is however the sub compact that has the tilt back not the rotating barrel. Kind of not the same gun. I also have a custom made Steve Bedair stainless steel guide rod witch makes a huge difference in any pistols accuracy. The sub compact in effect is not the same gun.
i love my px4 and i dont have any problem with the safety.. specialy racking the slide
I read about this gun about a year ago and considered this for conceal carry. I haven't been able to shoot it yet, but you guys are my go-to along with Hickok45 when I don't have them in front of me. Looks like I will have to wait until I can get my hands on it, but in the meantime I'm wanting the Beretta M9A3! Keep up the good work guys!
Right hand twist actually. Twist gives recoil a rotary component, and it is what causes (and is counteracted by) the rotating barrel.
My first one that I ever bought. 9mm double single. Usually use 147 grain but have also used 124 and 115. The very first few hundred rounds out of the box the slide several times would not fully slide back. Once broken in never had issue. Always is good brass. I have shot aluminum casing. Not had issue. Have shot thousands through it.. I have never been a fan of the 92 model. But this one is a good choice. But my edc is something different.
They need Ernest Langdon down there for a class.
I have the SA/DA in .45 ACP. It has never failed to fire. Ever. I have multiple firearms and its the gun I trust my home defense to.
I should add that out of the box, it wasn't all that accurate. But I put aftermarket adjustable sights and dialed it in. No accuracy issues since.
I wish we had the same weather now as you had filming this right now. I hate winter.
I am going to buy one of these on Monday. Great price with extra mags. Can't wait to try it out at the range.
my actual first handgun I fired was a PX4 storm in .40 , had no issues, I just didn't like it in .40, not having any handgun experience I felt a little to much like it wanted to jump out of my hands
A beautiful and reliable pistol! Beretta PX4... the best!
The Beretta PX4 has a cult following. It seems like its one of those love it or leave it kind of guns... The big gripe seems to be the decocker levers. I'm still a fan.
I agree with you regarding the safety. My dad has one and the exact situation where I flipped the safety down happened when I grabbed the slide like that.
