It's interesting to hear your thoughts after higher round counts on the APX. Canine has enumerated three things (slide serrations, extended slide catch, and flared magwell) that would push him over the edge into camp APX. Texaspoff, you mentioned Safariland ALS holsters for the Centurion as something that you would want to see, but I also get the impression that you would need more than that to be really convinced.
I'd be very interesting in both of you and others quantifying exactly what is holding the APX back? Obviously, a lot of people seem to be either on the fence or not jumping in quite yet. But, for example, Texas, what would it take for you to be the first one carrying an APX in your area?
I'm thinking of what specific, concrete, actionable things would have to change in order for people to take a given pistol into the fold. People talk about the APX not having aftermarket support, for example, but what specific products would you want to see from the aftermarket to constitute "sufficient" aftermarket for that not to matter for you?
If anyone else would like to chime in, I'd like to know what specific changes or additions or the like would make you want to pick up an APX?
CanineCombatives, you mentioned that you wanted an extended slide release and different serrations. Have you had trouble with these personally? What would the extended slide release ameliorate for you?
