What's wrong with a big, heavy pistol? At least you still have a weapon when it's empty

Beretta offers it on the 92A1 9mm also, the 92A1/96A1 just came out last year.

Nice piece...what is the loop at the bottom of the grip used for? A necklace?

Long story short...I just picked up a full sized Beretta Px4 Storm in 9mm

Like, really like, and I haven't fired a round through it
It has the Beretta designed locked-breech with a rotating barrel system to dissipate recoil energy radially, reducing felt recoil and muzzle rise. It's noticeably smoother/sleeker externally than a 92/96. Controls, feel, external hammer, will all feel traditional Beretta...but Low Fat all across the board. The checkered grips provide positive grip and as far as the overall weight...at 27.7 Oz's (9mm) it's 5.6 Oz's lighter than a 92. Daddy likes!

The loop is for a lanyard.

As for the px4 --- I have both the sub compact and full size. Needless to say I love them both. No issues no matter what ammo I run through them and accurate as all hell. Both have nice luminescence night sights as well.

Beretta's are nice. Went out to buy one once. Then I picked up a CZ75 SP-01 and liked it better.

Maybe someday I'll end up with a Beretta.

Maybe the Government will sell off all theirs (M-9's) and I'll be able to buy one cheap.

Same exact thing happened to me -- I was completely convinced I was going to pick up a 92A1 as my next pistol. I'd been shooting it at the range as a rental for a couple of weeks, putting a couple hundred rounds downrange. Loved it. Then one day, the guy behind the counter at Wade's asked me if I'd tried a CZ before. I was game for anything, and a couple hundred rounds downrange with a CZ-75 Phantom later, I'm online at lowpriceguns.com ordering a CZ-75 SP-01 Tactical, and haven't looked back since.

The Baretta is a nice piece of work, I tell you what. but for me, the CZ was a better overall fit.

That 20 round capacity (19) on the Tactical is pretty nice too. With a topped off mag in the pistol and two reloads you have over a box of ammo with you, on your belt.

Does anyone know if Beretta has fixed the "easy removal of the slide" problem that was all the talk in years past?
