I owned an ARX100 for a few years. A few things about your gun... The button under the trigger guard is a magazine release. The side buttons were put there to make Americans feel more comfortable with the operation, but the button under the trigger guard is much easier to use. You can buy a knob for the charging handle if you are not going to move it from left to right often. It costs about $5 and you simply push it on over the peg and it'll lock itself into it with a spring. This will save your knuckle. The grenade launcher cover can be replaced by a picatiny rail. I think that one was $20, and it lets you take full advantage of all the accessories you can use with a picatiny rail. You can find short barrels from Beretta in case you want to SBR it. It's simple to swap out, and better Beretta sells them every now and then even if they tell you they don't know when. The gun accepts Gen2 PMAGs, but not Gen3. You can make the Gen3s work if you remove the two little ledges on the back side of the magazine. The gun is awesome and everyone I know that had one loved it. You can run it pretty much dry and it'll still work. Beretta says if you oil it, you only need one or two drops and you're set.

I’ve never had even my cheapest ar’s not eat steel case. Did you ever try it in yours and did it work?

[@joebenson528]

@@bracoop2 There are only a handful of manufactures that actually produce the the major AR 15 parts (receivers, BCGs). So, there is a good chance an inexpensive brand is just using "rejected" parts that function 100%. Such as PSA's FN Barrels, FN rejected them so PSA bought them for a discount. And then there is Inter Ordnance... My point: The platform (in spec) is vastly superior to the ARX. The Italians never entertain steel cased ammo, which is odd considering how poor they are (because of their EU membership).

[@Howjadoo22]

Solid points I came here to make, but FYI, the button under the trigger guard is NOT a magazine release, and IS a bolt catch. Just double-checked my own ARX-100 and confirmed this to be the case.

Button under trigger guard is a bolt catch release, not a mag release. IMHO you don't need to buy new parts for the weapon, just instead of using your index finger to rack, use the palm of your hand. Palm of your hand facing towards your face, pull the lever towards your shoulder flexing that Bicep, and you should be good to go with no busted knuckles. Edit: exactly as he racked his AK at 16:05

I've had an ARX100 for years, and I do enjoy shooting it. There is a slip-on extended charging handle you can get that eliminates the knuckle-bump while charging the weapon. They did make other barrels for this rifle (even a 10.5" version!) but most of those were only available overseas. But if even a quarter of the Demolitia were to buy one of these rifles, you'd see Beretta import those other barrels pretty stinking quick.

As a major history nerd who especially loves the old west, it really hurt to watch you shoot that old Wells Fargo lock. I reeeeeeally hope that was a replica 😬😬

[@davidward2651]

Same here

[@shrimpster101]

I thought it would be either A) a replica or B) one that was very very common

[@DangerRussDayZ6533]

I'm going to go ahead and say that that was most definitely not a replica. I mean, who makes replica locks anyway?

[@elhurricane1706]

@trollolol all but one of the Wells Fargo museums shut down during the pandemic, meaning it's very plausible that he somehow ended up with one of the locks in their collections.

@trollolol of course, you may have already known that given the fact you sound a bit like someone who works/worked there.

I love the way the Beretta looks. However if it can't shoot steel cased then we can't be friends so that's a no go for me.

I had a case of wolf I left tin the back of my truck for 2 months and most of it was entirely covered in rust. My arx still ran almost all of it. It is the most reliable rifle I own and a great conversation starter.

Matt ARX’s are AWESOME I love that you finally got one I commented many years ago when I got mine about you getting one! I traded mine recently but it also can eject spent shells either side with that small hole in the back use the top of a bullet to press it! I absolutely loved mine and wish I still had it! You can also buy a lower Picatinny rail that replaces that lower plastic piece.

I'm a lock collector and the Wells Fargo lock is a fantasy reproduction that is recently made. It's not antique at all. The Hi-shear lock is actually the oldest one on the stand. An original Wells Fargo padlock is no where near that big. It would be pretty small actually.
