Went to the gun shop yesterday looking for a Glock 17. The guy told me I would have to wait about five months. But then he asked me if I had ever shot a px4. I've never owned or even shot a Beretta. Well, in a rare moment of impulse I bought the gun, 9mm. Put 100 rounds through it last night - flawless! I may end up adding a few more Berettas to keep my Sigs company. Very happy I ended up with a surprise rather than a disappointment.
Glad to hear that i have the 92fs that shoots flawless also, the px4 is next on the list.
How much did you pay? You can get a Px4 back before the gun grab for like 399.00
Beretta....the well kept secret:mrgreen:Quote:

But, the ones that I do have, are great and I have been very happy with them.

You have several? What do you have?
SC in 9mm and a full size .40. Both have been flawless so far.
Nice, what do you prefer out of the two? If you had to choose?
I like the full size better. It is a little bit more accurate (longer barrel) and the rotating barrel is very smooth. The SC is a close second. We use both for HD (mine is the full size, Momma loves the SC) so I guess that is where some of the bias comes from. They are great at the range and for HD but too bulky to carry. I (we) have Ruger LC9's for that duty. Tried the Nano (to keep it all Beretta) but prefer hammer fired and the dimensions of the LC9 better.
I guess that is why there are so many different guns available. I prefer Nano with its smaller dimensions and striker. On the other hand I agree the full size PX4 is the best of them, though all are nice.Quote:

I did pretty much the same thing when I was looking for a subcompact. I ended up with the .40 cal Px4 subcompact. Very happy with it!
What made you pull the trigger on the sub compact versus the full version without getting too personal with it?Quote:

thinking very quickly, there are none. rather have a full size in time of need.Quote:

I have to chime in too .. I picked up one of the police trade-ins from a large internet seller back in early December shipped for $299, + $20 transfer ... obviously before the roof blew off. It's a full-size .40 in DAO, and I absolutely love it. Still a fan of my G22, but this PX4 shoots much nicer groups. I can get 3" at 50', but the G22 tends to widen to 5" ... I've alternated both at the range and the felt recoil is a good 20% less, maybe I'm just less anxious with it due to that. Like the thought of the compact as it retains the rotating barrel, but the sub-compact does not IIRC ... might have to go after a sub for future carry.
I recently picked up thw sc in 9mm as well havent been able to make it to the range uwt seeing as the illinois foid sustem has been having issues with getting them processed in time but i cannot wait to take it to the range and try it out, havent really hward anything bad about any of the px4's except the spring issue, which supposedly doeant effect the sc! Well what can i say great minds think alike right??? Lol
LAguy,
I went with the subcompact because I was looking for a DA/SA concealable gun. I carry a gun everyday to work and wanted something easy to carry. Not to mention, that is what was available. 0.2" difference in barrel, I was good either way. Just happened to get subcompact. And like was said before, no issues from the gun. Had one stiff magazine, but it loosened up quick enough.
I will take your buddy's 92fs for $500....Quote:
