Beretta PX4 Storm Subcompact Vs Glock 26 (subcompact discontinued via Beretta 2023)

[@spnfirearms]

Code: SPN for 10% off Blacksmith Tactical Holsters. My go to is the v2 holster with double discrete carry clips and a wedge. And if you have under a 3.7” barrel, get a wedge!! Respect

[@goofysandal9552]

I really like that you do older (sometimes discontinued) firearms. It gives more variety of content vs other people and these guns are still out there and if you were to want one it’s good to know someone is out here sharing info about an otherwise forgotten weapon. Good video as always

[@spnfirearms]

Yes there are so many great options people forget about! Hype takes them over. Respect and thanks for watching

[@nickboutin857]

You should get the compact px4 and see the difference in the browning tilt barrel vs rotating barrel. Would love to see you try the updated compact carry model they just released a few months back. The px4 sub isnt a true px4 in my opinion, without the rotating barrel.

[@spnfirearms]

That’s the next video my friend

[@maxmccain8950]

I’m old. I come from a revolver background. The 1911 was next. Jeff Cooper showed me how to use that one. In the late 90’s I discovered Glocks. Dead bang reliability is what first attracted me to them. I more or less hitched my wagon to Glocks. Holsters and all the accessories since then has been geared towards Glocks. There’s a lot larger variety now than there was back when I first found Glocks. I’m not sure I would go with them now if I was just starting out but they have served me well for a long, long time.

I purchased the PX4 Sub several years ago on a whim and have been very pleased with it. Shoots great and is well built. My only niggling complaint is the safety device being mounted on the slide is hard for me to use because my thumb is too short. So, I just use the decocker and carry the pistol in double action mode. Paid $425 nib for mine.

[@spnfirearms]

Fair enough! Respect and thank you for watching

[@rwtindall]

You don’t need a rail on a subcompact. It’s made for concealment/close-up confrontations over in seconds. Point and shoot. Use your natural point of aim. Love your videos. Semper Fi.

[@clima]

The PX4 SC is an awesome gun in stock format, no changes are necessary, however, if you want to take it to another level I recommend 2 things: 1. Short reset trigger bar from Langdon tactical (~$70) 2. LTT reduce hammer spring # 10 (~$10) It makes it much smoother and you can change back to stock if you don’t like it

[@RideOnTimePH]

And change it to G configuration or have the LTT low profile safety (those safeties are easy to activate just by carrying and sometimes snags)

I picked up a Glock 19c Gen 4 online for $375 a month ago and last week I picked up a gen 3 Glock 29 for $350 they both look brand new and still had the gold anti-seize... I guess people are just turning them back in and never been out of the box

[@Luke-id1cp]

19c is cool never seen one in person

[@raa2640]

PX4 Sub is my EDC I carry it with the 13 round mag, and a 17 round backup. 30 rounds of 9mm in two mags. 😎👍

[@mdubb4855]

G26 was designed for backup. It assumes - needs - a holster to cover that short draw, light-pull trigger. If you forget the holster in a bug out situation, the manual of arms for the Beretta PX4 means it can be safely carried without a holster (much more with the F edition than the G). (F has decocker plus manual safety; G only has decocker.) Despite looking bulkier, the Beretta only weighs 6oz heavier. If you do have a holster, the XD Subcompact holds 13 oz, so it's also a contender. Same weight as PX4 IIRC.

[@GrantDWilliams82]

I hate that Beretta discontinued this. I hope they bring it back.

[@kawikadee9670]

I love my glock 26 it's still going it's very reliable.

[@Kingsc84]

Why this man has so many Glock 26. I don’t need more than one of the same gun. 13 of that guns is crazy work.

[@spnfirearms]

Why do you care? I bust my butt for my stuff.

[@lunchandlearn]

Two is one, one is none.

[@thePreparedFather]

Dramatic? Bro im poor, spending 200 for just the cut is unfeasible or at bare minimum unnecessary with todays firearms

[@jayfishandshoot7147]

Don’t call yourself poor!

[@thePreparedFather]

@@jayfishandshoot7147 you’re right my bad, thank you brother

[@Sleeper-Slug6]

Who makes that magazine baseplate!? Looks really nice!

[@damonmcgovern8963]

Love your videos

[@beaumontdale675]

SPN, would you be willing to do a video that showcases every gun you own? You don't have to talk about every individual gun, but it would be cool to see them laid out and a general, brief walkthrough the various guns

[@BirdDogey1]

The PX4 SC is amazing. SA follow ups? Forget about it.

[@popcornchicken5552]

Should start posting some rifle vids if you are a fire arms channel.

[@realwelder3529]

Sometimes recoil doesn't make sense. Lol. My smallest pistol rn is a G2C and it handles recoil better than my Tisas PX9 Carry and my Hellcat Pro. Also, I just got some 147gr JHP and they have less felt recoil than my target rounds, which are Magtech and Blazer 115 or 124.

[@NextGenGunner1]

Great video

[@lunchandlearn]

Do you deal with the keel effect while conceal carrying your G26s? I absolutely love the G26 but cannot solve this problem.

[@spnfirearms]

A wedge on your holster

[@lunchandlearn]

Tried all kinds of wedges and holsters. None worked. Now I carry a P30sk and it works perfectly for me. I’m glad the G26 works for you.

[@zacharymccoin5431]

They sell docking levers that are more low profile for carry. Don’t stick into you as much

[@propblast82nd]

Wondering if you have a favorite brand of target range ammunition ? Thanks for another fun video 👍🇺🇸

[@valkyriect3919]

Off topic.. If you were a lefty what would you pick for your EDC Kimber Mako or S&W CSX?

[@spnfirearms]

CSX! It’s an amazing handgun. So overlooked and underrated. You’ll thank me later man. Enjoy it! Respect

[@romans6two338]

For deep pocket carry consider S&W 642, it's great. For semi check out Hellcat or Shield.

[@valkyriect3919]

@@romans6two338 But those aren’t ambidextrous.

[@wireless1235]

@@valkyriect3919I’m a lefty. Just reverse the mag release and use slingshot to rack the slide. You don’t need an ambi slide release.

[@goofysandal9552]

@@wireless1235this guy gets it from a lefty don’t limit yourself to only ambi firearms when so many other great options are out there. For me, as long as I can swap the mag release I’m good to go

[@thuduking9]

The Beretta looks like a gun pulled out of the Teletubbie universe. Jk jk. Interesting comparison.

[@Spinz1010]

That PX4 is one of the ugliest guns I’ve ever seen

[@buildthyself1409]

Lmao I think it’s one of the best looking

[@myvenusheeler]

lol. I call mine my little Bulldog.
