Beretta needs to offer an ARX-100 pistol that can accept a pistol brace.
The only thing they would need to make would be the replacement hinge for the brace. Barrel is off the shelf, along with the firearm. |

Those holsters are Radar or Vega clones of the Bianchi one.. crappy stuff from the 90’s that’s still in the armories..and maybe still produced  No surprise they’re issued crappy stuff since the LEO that use the M9 daily are still fighting to get better gear.. Italy is weird country.. full of contradictions.. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Terraericthys: I love the creativity. Theoretically a competent machinist could manufacture an extended aluminum rail that is installed in place by replacing the heat shield (slides out of you remove the top and side rails). I wish the longer forend found on the Italian Military Issued ARX rifles was what came to the U.S. Market. If that was the case I'd definitely cut down the barrel to 13.7" and add Surefire 3 Prong. Also, IMO the Surefire Closed Tine Flash Hider is the closest you'll get to the look of the one on the ARX160. The longer HG is on the ARX-160 A1 variants. The ARX-100 has the same HG as found on the current A3, minus the large upper vents, which can be cut to match (See p. 99). |

Please someone buy this, then revert it to a title 1, and then sell it to me so I can reform 4 it. It looks like it'll slip on to the arx100 just by removing the stock plastic cover. I've been on a 40mm fix and this.. This is just awesome sauce. |

It sucks ass and you gotta half pull your shoulder out of the socket to do it if you want to maintain a hold on the grip while drawing instead of grabbing it around the middle.

It's a 1k gun for sure, quite a few issues addressed with it, wanted one for awhile, the only one I ever handled the store owner quoted me 1399 and I handed
it back to him. I wish I would have been paying attention when they were in the 850ish range before, thought I would miss the boat. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By kanewtervalve: Probably already mentioned: has to be the most expensive firearm to SBR, over $700 best case scenario. I completely disagree as for me it was the cheapest ever and essentially free. I bought the SBR kit from Botach, kept the barrel, sold everything else including the stock 16” barrel and came out squeaky clean. So, it was like getting the SBR for the $799 plus tax I paid Academy. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By kanewtervalve: Probably already mentioned: has to be the most expensive firearm to SBR, over $700 best case scenario. How do you figure that? I paid $350 for the barrel. An SBR upper costs a little less maybe, depending on what brand you're buying, or potentially way more. Tried SBR'ing a SCAR? |

Actually thought about the SBR from Botach but the thought of waiting for over a year for the stamp wasn't my cup of tea. The only barrel available now
is $575 plus the $200 stamp. If I catch a break on the barrel down the road I'll think about it, I've already bought 15 stamps in the past year since I found the online 1 month form 1 approval, factor in the cost of getting the pistol/rifle to sbr status for each of those, I guess the ARX is fine as a rifle for me. |

When I SBR'd mine, it was the barrel assembly (I think $300 from Botach back then) and the stamp. I'm no gunsmith, but it took me about 3 minutes to swap the barrel group out. Runs like a champ.

Yeah, if you're removing the barrel and haven't disassembled the rest, you can just pull the bolt back and the bolt handle out as if you were switching it from left to right or vice versa and it'll lock in place.

KyGunCo has the ARX100 for $935. Just bought one. Damn you all!
 I'm starting to get back in to non-AR guns. I've gotten rid of all my ARs and now I'll just have a Steyr AUG, Galil ACE, and the ARX100 in terms of semi-autos. ARs are fantastic guns, they're just insanely boring to me because they're so good at what they do. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By sdrake100: So, these aren't discontinued then? Beretta never officially announced them as discontinued, and they still show up on their website. I've seen them remove guns from their website that they stopped making before. It has probably just become a limited production item, in that they make very small batches of them at a time and they don't do batches often. Similar to what HK does with guns like the USP Expert/Elite, and Mark 23. You'll see those pop up everywhere for a while, then they'll disappear for 4 months, then show back up in stock at places. |
