Beretta APX Carry is Here

[Polecat]

Hope it is better than my two crappy nanos. Can anyone confirm is this a different trigger? Can’t wait to find out.

There is a tendency to label all these thin guns as single stacks. In my small gun collection, I have true single stacks 938, XDs) and “semi staggered” (“quasi staggered”?) like the 43 and Shield. Truth be told, I prefer the slight staggered magazines better. I find them easier to load and unload. Plus they’re less susceptible to next round drag, where feeding the top round drags the round below it, forward.

My hope is that in the future they would be able to offer a 1.5 stack grip frame and magazine combination that would allow the same chassis to be used with the single stack and an as yet unavailable 1.5 stack magazine of slightly higher capacity. I think many manufacturers are playing catch up with Sig in terms of getting a 1.5 stack magazine that small with that capacity working in their various platforms. We'll see if Beretta can get a solution out at some point.

The triggers at NRAAM were lighter (the 6-6.5 number sounds right) and smoother than the old Nano. Not quite as smooth as my revolvers, but that's a pretty high bar to beat (S&W performance center and S&W with a 40 year long, lord knows how many pulls, trigger job).

Indeed, I would be hard pressed to tell the difference.

I read this thread earlier today and thought “why release a 6+1 when Glock just dropped that 43x and 48 #glockperfection and sig just dropped the 365?”

Then I remembered the guy that replaced my water heater a few years ago saw my safe and started talking guns. He showed me his nano and I remember being impressed how small it was for a 9mm, and how easy it slipped into a pocket.

If this is the same or similar size, with the bugs worked out, i could see it as a step up from j frame in a slightly heavier, it similarly sized package.

Anybody know when these are rumored to be hitting dealers?

Beretta says they are shipping now but I can't find any online or at two different LGS. The rep at NRAAM told me they were considering shipping them with a front night sight. If that's the delay I'm fine with it.

I believe @bac1023 saw one in the wild today.

Yes, they are in stores.

I handled one tonight.

this little APX carry looks sharp, but even as a Beretta fan I don't see it replacing my G43x or XDS mod 2.
