I have to wonder why Beretta barely markets it.... granted the way the way they market the 92FS is saying hey this is what .mil uses You'd think they'd actually try pushing their products harder Beretta makes the lion's share of their profit on things other than pistols. Mainly shotguns, their clothing line, etc. The handgun market is only a very small fraction of their revenue. Even with the M9 contract. As for marketing...well...they're starting to get the message. Their collaboration with Wilson, the introduction of a number of new 92 variants people have been asking for, and Langdon's work with the PX4 are part of a ramping-up in the handgun market. |

There have been some delays due to out of spec sights and some hiccups related to Beretta moving their facility to a gun friendly state. They should be available relatively soon, though. Quote HistoryQuoted:

That has been on my want list for a while as well. Has it been released? Last I looked (couple months ago?) I couldn't find any information on it. There have been some delays due to out of spec sights and some hiccups related to Beretta moving their facility to a gun friendly state. They should be available relatively soon, though. I was wondering if there was a reason. I was starting to think Beretta went full KelTec with their M9A3 production schedule.

My wife has the PX4 Compact 9mm. It is a nice gun. Very smooth, and the fit and finish is excellent, better than some other polymer guns out there. I think it's a little wide with the decocking wings, but most of the other surfaces are done really nicely for concealed carry. It shoots really well, I can get better groups out of it than I can with my XDM. Kind of novel rotating barrel system. The SA trigger on hers is pretty light. It's probably not the best SA trigger in the world but in SA mode it is much lighter and has MUCH less travel than a striker design, so I'd say it's got a much better trigger than our Glocks or Springfields (in SA mode). DA trigger is long and heavy but that's how it's supposed to be. If you like DA/SA design guns you'll like it. If you don't then go with something else.

I don't own a PX4. I'm a 92/96 guy. If I wasn't invested into the mags and holster and have a number of 92s and 96s. I'd go PX4. So, this is a thing now... Beretta 92 G conversion kit Time to "fix" my non-G 92's (after everyone is done buying up all the stock at once )
I've been kicking around getting rid of my 96G Centurion... Have looked at the Px4, but never really bit, because of the pile of 92 mags that I own as well.

I don't shoot my PX4 .40 F to G conversion much anymore, kinda fell out of love with it.
Doesn't mean I hate it, it's a hell of a gun, but I've moved away from the .40 round. If I could trade for one in 45, I'd do it in a heartbeat. |

Carried a PX4 Compact 9mm for about a year, it was 100%. However... Didn't care for the slide-mounted safety (which I converted to the G-model decock-only), grip was too slick (added Talon tape), bbl was awfully short for a gun that size, rail was too short for anything but a micro light. Good gun, but better options available for my needs. I don't understand this, I've got a TLR-4 on mine and it fits fine. |

The PX4 Compact's rail is too short for a std-size weapons light like the TLR-1. Tomac |

I bought the 9mm Sub Compact instead of a Glock 26 because the dealer had it for $425 and he would not budge below $525 for the 26.
I like the little Bulldog of a pistol. I do not CCW carry it because of the weight and thickness but have carried it in my vehicle. Has been flawless with a variety of ammo. |

I have two of the full size, in .40. I love the way they fit my hand and shoot.
The older one has almost 10k rounds though it. I bought a complete set of springs, but have never changed them out...it just keeps on rocking I did do the safety/decocker to decocker only modification on the first one. I bought the second as a decocker only. There is a silencer adapter, that mounts to the frame somehow, that Beretta built for the military. I believe it is only available in .45. It is a strange looking critter |
