Beretta claims that the APX A1 carry and the Nano magazines aren't compatible because they are a little different. The nano magazines will however still work in the APX carry although its probably best to only trust your nano magazines in the APX for the range.
I just picked up a brand spanking new one just the other day. I was highly impressed with the quality, and quality control of the Berettas made in Tennessee. They almost remembered to install the rear chassis disassembly pin... Almost.
Thanks I appreciate it. Currently beretta doesn’t make a small micro double stack like the sig 365 but stoeger just came out with one and they are a subsidiary of beretta.
i bought one, only because i got it for 180 bucks, gun shoots straight, not crazy about the trigger, seems like there is a primary wall and a secondary wall, i checked out a canik meta, trigger is fantastic.
I’m so torn on this gun. 50% say it’s a good gun. Then the other 50% say it’s horrible due to the trigger not being great. Idk I guess I’m just going to have to get it since buds has it on sale and find out for myself.
I like the trigger and also, I take most things from the gun community with a grain of salt. The gun community is full of a bunch of dorks who love to crap on anything that isnt mainstream.
Yeah u really can’t count on listening to the media or many other ppl..especially the ones that think they know it all! And those that think they’re above everyone else & thinks they’re guns are far better than any other! U have to go check it out yourself. Guns are like anything else u wear, comfortable, reliable, accurate. Idk if advice u to do your own research. 👍 it’s true what u say though, some say, they’re good, whilst others say they’re garbage! 😂 that’ll confuse the heck outta anyone!
@@CamGaylorJust like they crapped on the design of the og APX so Beretta changed it. I appreciate the original design. Imo it's beautiful in an aggressive way.
Amen..I think the crybabies should carry a BP 1860 Colt for a while..and learn something..they would be suicidal in no time..crying and complaining themselves into oblivion..@@CamGaylor
Outstanding. Thank you. I don't even have my APX Carry (on it's way) but I'm already looking at IWB holsters.. and I like your. Thank you. Keep up the great vids Brother. @@CamGaylor
I like this gun... I dont love it... the best thing about this mini 9mm is the 8 rnd magazine that drops down far enough to grab my pinky. I love the grip on the gun as well, but i feel like since its on the lighter side, the recoil is pretty bad on the gun. It would be nice to see a barrel extension with threads. What really sold me on this gun was that this past summer cabelas had a great deal where it came with a Burris FastFire on it, but only 1 mag, at about 399. Which at the cost of the red dot, it was tough to pass on. Overall i feel like most people complain about triggers too much.
Just received mine today. The trigger feels like it is "Dragging" against something. Is this normal? I have the 92X had the PX4, carry the P320, this was supposed to replace that heavy weapon. but i guess there is a break in period? hope it works it self out...
Is it reliable, that's the real question, seem to be mixed reviews on that, don't care about the trigger at all, I'm still not sure whether to go for it or not
@@CamGaylor have you dry fired it ? Cause I've read some people start having some problems after they do, I really want to grab it, I love the way it looks
I don't feel that it's very snappy. I have a shorts video where I just empty a mag into the dirt. That may give you an idea of the recoil but I personally don't feel that it's very snappy. I also enjoy shooting 40 cal a lot so maybe I'm just use to recoil. Thanks for stopping by.
I know I'll get roasted in the comments. But how does this compare to something like the Taurus G2C? I am looking to get my first handgun and want to go budget. Local gun store has the G2C for 239.99. They have this for 299.99 with the rebate.
This will be smaller then the G2c the G2c is a double stack pistol but they are actually pretty good. Taurus makes a pistol called the G2s that is single stack and would be more comparable to this gun. Either one will probably work fine. The Taurus has a strange trigger that breaks really far back. The Beretta has a trigger that is more similar to other striker fired guns like the Glock, XD, M&p ECT. The Taurus trigger is fine in my opinion but I've heard that people with very large hands struggle with it's trigger. Either gun will probably serve you well. Thanks for watching I have always had good luck with Taurus products
I have one and it was bad out if the box, the trigger is bad a d it's all over the target. Have taken it to the range a few times and I'm still not happy. I have other Berettas, but this one is not a good product. That's why you can get it for a cheap a price.
Don’t buy an APX A1 and expect to receive your rebate check. they said to wait up to 10 weeks to receive it. I’ve waited 15 and they still tell me it’s processing. What a joke.
@@CamGaylor No one brags on Glock triggers. They all get replaced with aftermarket ones. hahaha. I'm glad you like it though and anyone can train and be proficient with any weapon in this amazing era of firearms that we get to live in.

I love the trigger, you can fill that pressure before you squeeze. Very accurate as well.
If if you like this gun, which I do, I own one Palmetto State Armory has them right now for 189 after rebate. Good deal.
Palmetto State Armory was selling these for $179 after rebate. I bought 2
Nice
Just picked one up @$199
I got 2 also . U can't beat the price or quality

Are you saying Tennessee should stick to moonshine?
Love the look and everything about it! Just wish it was doubled stacked. Great video and gun

JAXA1C915FO Beretta APX-A1 Compact 9mm 3.7" 15rd Optic Ready
That's the actual APX A1, and probably as close as you'll get.
I like mine. It is a perfect substitute for the areas I don't want to conceal my APX full size. Surprisingly, it is accurate and not too snappy.
Agreed

@camgayloroutdoors What holster is that? Also does the A1 Carry fit in the APX Carry holsters?
Great review, I love this gun. What brand holster is that?
I dont remember the holster brand sorry but I'm pretty sure I bought it from buds online
@@CamGaylor Thanks!
Thank you for the video. I like your IWB holster for it. Could you tell me what it is and maybe where you got it?
Hey I think it's literally branded as a Beretta brand holster I bought it from buds gun shop

Mine has about 700 rounds through it and I have had zero malfunctions so I have been happy with mine.
@@CamGaylor have you dry fired it ? Cause I've read some people start having some problems after they do, I really want to grab it, I love the way it looks
9 rounds should be plenty. How snappy is it? I carry a Hellcat and it’s real snappy.

i just ordered the Beretta APX A1 Carry 9mm 8rd, FDE for $249
Congrats! I carry the APX most of the time.
PSA has it for a little less and there's a $50 rebate on it.
@@jronche i got it from PSA but had to pay a little more for brown the black and green was 226$
@@bradlynn897 It's killing me not to buy one, that's why I watched the video! How is the trigger?
Where?
SMGW has them for $229 online right now…free shipping & no CC fees + $50 Beretta rebate also…Pretty good deal.

They should have used the standard APX trigger.
The Nano 3.0.
Pretty much
I got mine for Hi-Point money. $188 after rebate.
that’s why you took all the freaking magazines… out of stock in the market 😡🤬
My dad just bought my brother him and I one
Nice congrats

Mine shoots great and the trigger is fine. I shoot really good groups with it actually
I think they have reduced the price on these but jacked up the price of the magazines 😂
Beretta always has super expensive mags. Drives me crazy
The trigger on these guns suck. Glocks triggers are twice as good. The APX is not a terrible carry gun however. And it's real cheap.
Don’t buy an APX A1 and expect to receive your rebate check. they said to wait up to 10 weeks to receive it. I’ve waited 15 and they still tell me it’s processing. What a joke.
I think mine took around 16 weeks. Purchased in november. Rebate came in march or april.
Horrible at first. Hated it. Now Happ y as a 🤡
Try the trigger first. Yowza
The trigger on it is great. Very Glock like just slightly heavier.
@@CamGaylor No one brags on Glock triggers. They all get replaced with aftermarket ones. hahaha. I'm glad you like it though and anyone can train and be proficient with any weapon in this amazing era of firearms that we get to live in.
