Before I actually bought and shot a PX4 Storm 9mm, I was among the many who kind of scoffed at its try-hard Hollywood looks and cheap discount price, assuming it was a gimmicky lame duck of a gun. I couldn't have been more wrong, and with its excellent trigger and shooting characteristics, it's become a real favorite. It's just so much fun.

Cheap...not even, but it is one of the more desirable pistols that shoots smother and holds on target then most other pistols! It's accuracy as close to a rifle as anyone can expect, which is astoundingly accurate! Another fine pistol is the subcompact 9mm Bersa, a pistol made of steel and also holds perfectly on target and shoots any ammo you throw at it, it just doesn't care what you feed it, it works without any issues!! It's great to have a reliable pistol that exceeds anyone's expectations!!!...FYI, it doesn't need to replicate Glock, it stands alone and is by fare better then Glock!!

I bought a PX4 Storm full-size here in Canada a couple years ago. Cost me $750.00 Canadian. Our gun law says barrel length must be 4.25 inches for majority of Canadians with restricted class license to purchase. The barrel extends half inch from end of slide. I believe perfect for threading, but it illegal everywhere in Canada to have a suppressor. We are also not able to have carry permit, so safety de-cocker not an issue. I love this handgun! Very nice to shoot, accurate, and no problems after 2,000 plus rounds. Quality of manufacture is fantastic. Canadian border patrol have chosen this for all armed personel.

The sharp, protruding safety/decocker levers on the PX4 F were a deal breaker for me. They make racking the slide very uncomfortable and sometimes painful. I have a buddy that bought the low profile lever G set from Beretta and had it installed on his PX4. This basically eliminates the painful stock levers and also turns the pistol into a decocker only version. I bought a PX4 Full Size, had the new levers installed, and now have one of my favorite handguns.

I think it is worth the hype! Because all the good qualities of this gun, have proven to be true and accurate. Not really a surprising attribute as this gun is made by Beretta, the oldest and still existing gun manufacturer in the world since the 1520’s. The Px4 Storm is the polymer version of the battle tested 92FS or M9 used by the US military. I have this gun in the full size 9 mm version and truly it is a keeper. An added bonus if I may add, it has the Italian flair in design which makes it look good and stylish, just like the Ferrari’s and Lamborghini’s the Italian’s design

Great video! Regarding the silencer issue, Brügger & Thomet does one specifically for the PX4. There is an taylor made insert that compensates for the barrel rotation and prevents loosening (or tightening and fusing to the barrel). It's very well engineered and extremely reliable. But it's expensive and you need to purchase one of those longer barrels and have it threaded.

Another part you might consider with the 9mm full size PX4 is to get into its brother the CX4, the carbine. They share the magazine and funky looks (which I personally love), but are far different otherwise. Both are insanely good on the range, with that 16" barrel on the carbine making it wildly accurate, but it's just great fun to shoot. Try one some time.

SUPERB VIDEO, You shocked me with the low price. I just purchased mine for $650.0 in Northern Calif. Very good seller according to the gun store I patronize. Some years ago, a gun dealer tried to sell me the PX4 with a very good sales presentation but I didnt quite care for it. Recently I want a hammer fire for home defence and I tried the PX4 at a firing range. LOVED IT! It has a different recoil feel. I own many handguns and this may be my favorite at the range.

Just got mine in the 45 ACP with a 15% holiday discount. Pretty sweet, just have to wait a week or so for my credit cards to close out and begin the new cycle. Slightly, used but for $475 out the door with the 9 and 10 round mags, backstraps and cleaning brush its a pretty good deal. I love the feel of it. It feels more like a less bulky Beretta and a less plastic/artifical feeling Glock. Beretta did a nice job on this design IMO!

I will say though that the trigger does have a wee bit more take up in single action then I like. But it isn't all that much and very easy to get used to it. And like you mention, the wings on the safety are a bit big.

One of the great things about PX4 is the part most people complain about. No it’s not the decocker levers, it’s the rounded butt. People think this is ugly because of it. Rightly so. The reason why it’s rounded off is for less printing when concealed and helps to not gauge your side. It also helps reduce muzzle flip since the extra weight is shaved off the butt. Keeps most of the weight towards the muzzle end. One last thing... most people wouldn’t opt for a 40 cal as a carry option simply because of recoil management and site acquisition specially when double tapping. My thought to that is, if you were ever going to buy a carry gun in 40 cal it ought to be a PX4 simply because the rotating barrel dissipates recoil down to what you’d expect a 9mm +P round to kick like. However if you get it in 9mm then recoil is greatly less.

Not by chance the PX4 Storm is a derivate of the Cougar 8000, that was built around the .40 S&W. The problem was "there is this new cartridge that's all the rage in US law enforcement agencies, but it' has a snappy recoil. Also the straight recoiling barrel of the 92 series has several advantages for reliability and accuracy, but several police departments find the 92 bulky for concealed and heavy for all-day carry. What's the solution?" Rotating barrel.

I took a CZ p10c, sig 320 compact, Steyr mfL9 and px4 to the range. P10 I had shot plenty of times before and it’s just a great pistol. The px4 I bought used but great shape and the other two were new. Results were shocking! CZ p10c came in first place followed closely by the px4 then sig compact 320 and Steyr last. I fully expected the Steyr to place first with CZ second then sig and px4 last but I was way off. The px4 shot great, smooth with the rotating barrel and accurate, it’s now one of my favorite 9mm. The CZ p10c still the king and I recommend it. I’m a Steyr fan and very disappointed, maybe it was just me that day. The sig was very good but still I’d take the px4 over it and the p10c of my life depended on it. Still all good guns.

Another fan of the PX4. I have two in 9mm, a subcompact and a full sized, one .40 S&W full sized and a .45 DAO full size i recently found. The .45 is quite pleasant to shoot with factory .45 hard ball and even better with lighter target loads. I love shooting .45 in a 1911 and the PX4 is softer shooting than the 1911. The .45 is a C model, no safety/de-cocker and a DAO trigger, actually half DAO, since racking the slide puts the hammer in a half cocked position reducing the trigger pull.

It is easy to take apart, clean, then reassemble. I paid $500 and could not be more satisfied with my choice. In my opinion...you cannot go wrong with purchasing the PX4 Storm in either .9 mm or .40.

ZGryphon Good points you bring up, but I find it well worth the small amount of patience that takes. I can count on one hand all the guns I've bought in-shop, because rarely do I even find something remotely close to what price I am looking for. Online all the way for me.

I wanted one of these so badly back in the day, when I was shopping for my first .45acp home/self defense handgun. I could never find one, and ended up getting a West German Sig-Browning P220 with a heel magazine release. That 220 has gone on to become one of my most beloved firearms, but I still wonder about what could've been. :P

I just traded in one of my guns last week at Sportsman's Warehouse when this went on sale for $499. Beretta also has a $75 rebate for PX4 that ends January 31 2023, so I practically got this for cheap. Unfortunately, since I am in California, I gotta wait for 10 days but I cant wait to shoot this.

Those bat wings protrude for a reason. They work great for racking the bolt on your belt or a strap in order to free up your other hand.

Your collection is very unique and quite interesting. I'm surprised to see the PX4 made it to your safe. If your interested, you can drop that DA pull by using a Wilson Combat 12lb chrome silicone main spring for the Beretta 92, or Brownell's has a Cougar "D" spring. Keep up the good videos. Oh by the way, there are extended barrels in 9mm available from Beretta for threading.

My INOX PX4 .40 is prefect for the real world. Shoot the PX4 in the freezing cold with warm winter gloves on and you will feel the italian design genius behind the combat triggers' shape, range of motion, and feel... Bellissimo, molto bello, magnifico! Beretta just came out with an INOX compact 9mm. When it comes to cute little italians, the flesh is weak .

My stepdad happens to have one of the compact models in .40 S&W, and I'm very pleased with how nicely it shoots. The only features I don't really care for are the location of the safety/decocker and the way the sights dull over time, making it harder to aim quickly.

I bought both the PX4 Storm Carry and the compact (not the subcompact) version - stopped looking for any other guns. These are a great shooting guns - accurate and reliable with a wonderful trigger out of the box. Shoots as well DA as it does SA - the compact version is my choice for carry.

The rotating barrel was also a John Browning invention (and patent), he just decided to further develop the tilting barrel system instead. Grand Power (and I think Stoeger still, you might have mentioned that) also make some.

A) It's far more easy than you describe to simply take out the safety/decocker, pop out the detent ball bearing and spring, and presto, you have a 'G' model [decocker] gun. B) Swapping out the grip panels is neither tedious nor hard. It's simple and I've done in many times without effort. WTF? C) I actually like the grip area that the 'bat wings' provide...but now I"m into personal preference. D) You DON'T have to pull the trigger to remove the slide...and it's a DA/SA gun...so NOTHING like the Glock.

I've had a Storm for 6-7 years now but I'm ready to get rid of it. It's a great shooter. I just don't like the slide-mounted safety anymore. I've been shooting a friend's 1911 and the Fram safety just feels more...natural. And I think it's a little faster

Ive had the damn thing for about 7 or 8 years Ive never bumped the safety no one I have let shoot it has ever bumped it. That is a fear that is highly unlikely and if you are smart and you practice with your weapon you will never have a bumping it safety issue. If you dont practice and you are hitting that safety hard enough to move it. Send it back for maintenance that safety has to be bumped with a lot force to just click down like that. Explain to me how if its double action and you only have to rack the slide once to load that first round and never touch the slide after unless you are clearing a jam, how you could bump it into safe. Simply put you cant. Unless you are racking that slide consistently to put another round in I would say its not going to happen at all. The only other reason I can think it would is if the gun is too small for your hand. In which case that would be your own fault for not trying the guns feels out before you bought it. My hands are big but my brother is 6 foot 3 and still shoots it no issue.
