Round count on my PX4 .45 G range pistol is now 48,175. It is running smoothly and perfectly. The decocker lever was sticking a couple of thousand rounds after the slide disassembly cleaning @45,000. The Beretta oil tends to dry out or fail to keep carbons from getting stuck. I put a couple of drops of Rem Oil in the back of the slide, where the lever shaft can be accessed. Rem Oil will also dry up very quickly, but leaves a thin teflon film behind. I blew the area out and was going to do my normal full cleaning @47,500 rounds, anyway. (

My trigger pull has settled at a smooth 6.25 lbs DA & 3.5 lbs SA.
Storm SD‘s .45 SD has 28,302 rounds on it. It and its new barrel are working perfectly.
I had reported than my wife did a 100% disassemble & detail cleaning on her PX4 Compact G @17,050 rounds and put it to temporary EDC duty to shoot her PX4 SubCompact 9 G and raise the round count enough for a complete disassembly and cleaning.
She brought the SubCompact to 8,850 rounds of flawless, reliable service and decided to do the complete disassembly and cleaning to put it back on EDC duty. Since, she has been shooting the Compact, which is working well, now @ 18,250 rounds. We plan to stretch the cleaning intervals on the Compact to every 8-10,000 rounds. She removed the Talon Grip sections from the front and rear of the grips on both. This suited her hand and grip better. The Storms have the pyramid texture on the front and back, anyway.
No matter what... every Storm gets a new slide rebound spring at or before 5,000 rounds.
