If you ignore the APX family because it has the wrong name on the slide.you're doing yourself a disservice.Civilian holster for 92 Compact and Centurion Series pistols, right and left-hand variants, made of shockproof and scratch-resistant thermoformed polymer. Sometimes, some really good ones can get lost in the noise. The real pity is that the market is awash in polymer striker guns. As for concealed carry, it's a little on the large side, but then again, plenty of people carry a Glock 17 every day. If you were looking for a competition pistol or home defense gun.it's an incredible choice. It can wear a reflex optic, runs well without one, and with or without a suppressor. A natural and incredibly comfortable grip, paired with a very good trigger system and some incredible features. With that all said, this gun is born to run. It's a great striker trigger, almost on par with Walther's. There's hardly any creep, barely any stacking, and it breaks crisp and clean at around 5.5 lbs. The APX Combat trigger is excellent, with an almost-flat blade that - when at rest - is almost at 90 degrees. That's likely a wear-in issue, but it wasn't the easiest thing in the world. Getting the decocker to engage was a bear. The way it works is you have to depress the decocking button on the right side of the frame, then rotate the takedown lever down like on other Beretta pistols. The only thing we didn't like on the pistol was the takedown.

The frame features a 1913 rail for use with a light/laser, and the grip has swappable backstraps, with S, M and L included in the case. A blank plate is also included if you wanted to run the gun without one.Ĭontrols are lefty-friendly, with a swappable magazine release and ambi slide stop/release levers, though the takedown lever is not. The standard sights are not suppressor-height though they may - depending on your optic - still be co-witnessable. The pistol comes with four different adapter plates, allowing the user a fairly wide selection of optics if so inclined, as Burris, Trijicon, Leupold and C-More optics are all compatible. The trigger guard, which is squared at the front, has a generous opening, which makes it easy to run with gloves. The three white dot sights are easily acquired, though - if we had a criticism to make - we would have preferred suppressor-height fiber optic or night sights, but c'est la vie. The grip texturing is neither rough nor smooth just enough to get a good grip, with mixed stipling and texture for good traction.Īs with other APX models, the lands and grooves that serve as the fore and aft cocking serrations seem odd to some, but are easily gripped. The result? It feels good in the hand, and you get an incredibly high, tight grip with ease. The trigger guard is undercut and there's a relief cut at the top of the grip. The palm swell fits comfortably in the hand, and the beavertail of the frame is generously long. The APX Combat is ergonomically excellent. The buying public is sometimes slow to figure out 'hey, there's more than three gun companies and some of them make some good stuff!' at times and the APX is one of the better striker platforms out there. Frankly, these guns deserve more press and more attention than they get. The Beretta APX pistols that have come through have been well-liked around the AGH offices, and this Beretta APX Combat review is no different.
