![]() ![]() Unfortunately, unlike the M&P, it is very annoying to swap them out. Like the M&P series there are grip sleeves of various sizes so you can get the perfect fit. I kept the grip sleeve from the black frame to have a nice contrasting color scheme. Not too bad to install - you have to remove the trigger assembly from the grip frame so it's a good time to swap frame colors/sizes here if you want to - new polymer frames are $40-$50. The factory guide rod is polymer, and there have been reports of this breaking and turning your handgun into a brick. ![]() This part claims to "clean up" the trigger and reduce pull by 1-2 pounds. One change I made to the factory gun after those initial 180 rounds is to replace the striker guide and spring with one from Galloway Precision. I don't have pictures of the targets but I'd say accuracy is good enough for a combat/defensive pistol. I put 180 rounds through it with various 9mm flavors, and there were no hiccups, malfunctions or failures of any kind as you would expect. I'm not good at describing trigger pulls, and the only other striker-fired guns I have are M&Ps so. An average of 5 pulls on my trigger gauge gave me 5 lbs 9 ounces. I say that as a trigger snob (see below). Roughly Glock 19-sized, 15-round capacity in free states.įrom the factory, the trigger was. (it's not as easy to change as the P365, at least to me) There are several models available, from the full-size APX, the "ultra compact" APX Carry, to the mid-size one I bought - APX Centurion. The fire control unit is the serialized piece and you can swap out grip frames with. Like the SIG P320 that eventually won, the APX is a modular design. The Beretta APX was submitted as a replacement for the Beretta 92. Right around this time everyone started switching to striker-fired pistols (for the most part), and even the military was looking for a new pistol. So I sold my PX4 after a year or two and picked up an M&P Compact (the original 1.0 "real compact" version, before they had a Shield). The other issue is that the safety on the PX4 worked opposite of the safety on a 1911 (that I had recently purchased). I've talked about it before, and while I did like it for the most part but I probably wouldn't recommend a DA/SA pistol for a beginner. ![]()
