Italian for Dinner

[SimonRL]

I went to the LGS to pick up an AR15 lower I had ordered and spotted a gun on the used gun rack that I couldn’t identify. It turned out to be a Beretta PX4 Full Size in .45. I had a look at it and was in pretty good shape, there’s some holster wear and what I would expect on the slides etc. coincidentally, I have been eyeballing PX4s for a while now, I like the Blade Runner-ish design esthetic and they get consistently good reviews, and my HK45 and FN545 have reinvigorated my enthusiasm for .45acp so it came home with me for a very reasonable price. I throughly cleaned it and it came up very nicely and off I went to the range. My first shot was dead nuts on bull, but the PX4 has a very curved trigger which is not my jam at all and I threw a few low and left, but 60 rds later had a sizeable hole on a 4 in target, albeit a little left, but that target is dead. The PX4 is a pretty soft shooter, something, something rotating barrel, which is actually a pretty cool concept, but the grip has a very smooth texture and my strong hand slipped off a couple of times. It’s got three dot iron sights that seem to get the job done, so all-in-all I think it’s safe to say I got my money’s worth. And it will look pretty cool next to my Beretta Neos

Langdon Tactical does a NICE job on PX4’s…a buddy has a .40 they worked over, and it is a sweet piece.

Stand to the right just a bit or just aim a little right

I don’t believe there’s an option for a straighter trigger.

I don’t believe there’s an option for a straighter trigger.

I predict you end up selling it.

Don't look at me, Beretta is a shotgun in my world.

We’ll see. I’m not unhappy with how I shot it today, I’m sure I’ll get on top of it. And for what I paid for it I can afford to take my time with it.

Thanks. This is the same shape as the stock trigger, it just replaces the polymer trigger the gun comes with. There have been reports of this not being made very well as well as reports of them breaking over time.

actually, on my blued 92FS (made in Italy) , i replaced the "plastic" trigger with Beretta steel one.. my 92FS S/S (made in the USA), had a steel trigger, and steel guide rod.

i replaced the plastic one thinking WTF, the whole gun is metal except for the guide rod and the trigger.

it does seem to have more of a curve, than my 92.

 

[SimonRL]

These two could definitely come from the same universe.

I might try changing out the backstrap I tend to get too much finger on the curved trigger.
