Beretta apx review

#1

Post by knockonit »

well , a disappointment for sure in the trigger dept. fit and finish typical, liked the grip, easy function, and extremely accurate if one does their part, ran about 150 rounds thru it today, well, as noted above, trigger is a mile of long hard road, but about 30 in and i managed to get a hold of it, accurate and comfortable shooter, dragonlady, didn't shoot it as well as her g3, or her .45, so, guess it may move out, or who knows. and this is the compact size unit,
was hoping it would fill a need i was thinking of, but not gonna happen, comes with two mags, nada on any issues, just not a fan of trigger.

I think I read they are on to a gen 2. Did you get the newer one or the original. I only got to handle one of the original but never got to shoot it.

Shot a buddy’s when they first came out. On the first shot I brought the gun back down because the trigger was so hard I thought I had a safety on. Nope just the heaviest trigger pull I’d ever seen.

Both gens of it pinch my trigger finger against the bottom of the guard as it breaks. I wanted to like it, but can't live with that 'feature'.

I briefly owned a APX A1 Carry. WORST trigger I've even owned. Swapped it for a PX4 in .45. Better trigger, but it suffered a Kaboom after about 15 rounds. It's been at Beretta's service center for a couple of months now, awaiting eval. Needless to say, I'm not a fan of their products, or customer service.
