After I picked up my APX full size I found myself going to it for just about all my large 9mm applications. My Glock 17 and H&K VP9 don't see the light of day too much anymore. The Beretta APX is that good. Thanks for a nice review!
I agree with you 100%. I love the VP9 that my wife owns but I would not trade my Beretta for it at all. Love this pistol. :) Thanks for supporting our channel!
@@BlackBearOutdoors; You're welcome. I detect a slight hint of an accent. Are you originally from South Africa or Scandinavia? Again, I really enjoy your videos and all the best.
@@jasonroberts9357 ; It is. No need for many to be a brand-name/model snobs. The only fault I find with the APX is the take down button. The full size model not so much but my APX compact can be a real bear to push in to disassemble.
I love my APX, it's the 1st full-size pistol that I've carried as both concealed & open carry. It's one of the best shooting & flat shooting pistols I've ever shot. Been my EDC for about 9 months now, I trust my life w/ it every day.
I ordered mine yesterday.....selling my g3 for this...i dont see how this gin flew under the radar all this time....i heard it was higher when it came out but it wasn't selling so they lowered the price...i dont know why ppl think its ugly the slide is just different it stands out..from any other pistol...IMO
Things many forget about the APX initially. (Aside from is nearly non existent recoil) 1. Flared mags for forced stripping if it jams, which is never, but it certainly is nice to have 2. All chassis, big, small, tan, green, compact, full size etc... all $40. 3. The rear sight is a hook sight. If you are ever in a situation where you only have 1 hand, you can cock it off your belt or any grippy surface (ive tested this, surprisingly easy) 4. Multiple trigger springs, recoil springs, slides and sights straight from Beretta available The list goes on. Its a masterpiece of a firearm. In my top 3 and the price is outstandingly accessible.
Purchased the APX about 6 weeks ago. I liked it so much that I purchased the APX Centurion yesterday. The full size will be my home defense weapon and the Centurion my edc. Great guns and a very good review sir. Keep up the good work.
I have the full size APX in 40W&S and 15 round magazines. Feels great, shoots accurately at 25 meters, high quality construction and hits hard with the 40 caliber. To each his own, but if anyone dislikes it and prefers a Glock, well, they don't know what they are missing. I dislike Glocks but I know what I am not missing, I carried a Glock on my job for a short period of time and did not like it (personal choice like anything else). My APX feels in a lot of ways like a 1911, it is that comfortable.
You can even see on the 9mm frame. Everything feels "beefy" to accommodate the .40 I agree its a high quality pistol. I can't believe how affordable they are in the US. Thanks for supporting our channel! We have a holster video for the APX coming soon also.
Excellent review! I have been on the fence regarding the Beretta, but you just pushed me over. Many people think this gun is ugly. I think this gun is beautiful. I will have to save a few bucks, but I will have it by summertime. Thanks guys.
Nice video, great review of beretta apx 9mm full size. I had mine mar. 2020. Fired at the range almost a thousand rounds now. It shoots great and flawless, with fmj/jhp. The slide go forward by pressing the mag release after being locked open after last round in the mag. And also, I’ve noticed, by sticking a fresh mag with a good hard tap while the slide is locked open, the slide moves forward automatically and strips a new round. I love this gun very much. 👍
Comp-Tac also sells a great tactical holster for the APX and it even allows for an RDO which my APX has as well. Fantastic and gorgeous gun, so glad I picked one up this year.
I have the compact version, the one below the centurion. I love it. I have big hands and still can get a great grip on it. Very crisp and low recoiling gun for sure!
Definitely a unsung hero!! Had 2 of them in 40s&w when it first came out in 2017 they shot great wish i would have kept them and finally found one a few weeks ago in 9mm it also to shot great
@@BlackBearOutdoors u got it! I ordered a od green frame yesterday for it i got 200rnds through my apx 9 and it feels like home i got a 92 Elite and a px4 Storm in 40
I purchased a Centurian a few days ago and am waiting for delivery. Everything i see about this gun only supports my feeling that this will be the perfect choice for my carry needs. Your video contributed to my comfort in feeling this way.
Very good underrated gun. I think most people overlook it as it feels a bit oversized for a 9 mm gun, just like the px4, Beretta designed its pistols to handle a good amount of +p, .40 and .45 rounds
Not sure why would anyone pick a Glock over the APX, fantastic pistol. Have the 3 9s from Beretta, 92A1, PX4 and APX and my wife bought me the APX Carry for Christmas, happy Beretta owner here, more so with the APX.
Nice to see a fellow Albertan on here. I actually just purchased gun. Is my first pistol, Haven't had a chance to get out and shoot it yet but soon enough. Thanks for the video!
Same. It reminds me of Jurassic Park or a dinosaur for some reason with the slide serrations and jagged edge on the back of the trigger. A really rugged look
We have the same hits on the target, low & left. That’s what I’ve noticed with my APX. But it shoots great, very comfortable to shoot, lighter touch, great design for iwb/owb carry or for vehicle carry. Great for self/home defense. Feeds fmj & jhp ammo. Thanks. Great shootings.👍
So the full size apx was my first handgun (still have it) 3 years ago. Love the gun but I swear to any God that replacing the sights were impossible. I had to take it to 2 different gunsmiths and it took a week of soaking the slide in lubricating oil to get them off. Love the gun but it's trouble to switch out the sights.
Used a universal sight pusher from Amazon $60. It definitely is in there tight but came out. Added a Vector Venom red dot sight with the FF plate from beretta.
Absolutely love everything about the APX. Beretta did a fine job on making this firearm. When they first hit the Canadian market I bought one only to find out that it did not come with extra back straps like in the US. I went so far as to contact the distributer ( Stoager Canada ) to find out why. There web site at the time stated that it came with 3 back straps as advertised in the US. When a rep for Stoager got back to me I was somewhat taken aback by the response that I got. The rep said that thier web site did not state anything about extra backstraps. The attitude from the Stoager rep via his response was very terse to my question about the discrepancy between Canada and the US markets offering three vs one backstrap. I wish that I had kept the e-mail and made a screen shot of the web sight where it stated that three backstraps where indeed included with the gun. I was made to feel like I was complaining with out having a reason to do so and that I should feel grateful for what I bought. The response also made me feel like I was somehow being disingenuous about my issue regarding the information on the Canadian web site. Don't get me wrong I do enjoy the firearm but after dealing with the importer ( Stoager ) has left me thinking that I will never deal with or give my hard earned cash to such a company again.
Oddly now that you mention it, mine also did not have additional backstraps in the box. I notified the store I bought it from and they said they would contact the distributer about it. A week later I was asked to pick up the additional backstraps from the store I bought it from. I also saw it included in all online ads from different stores also.
@@BlackBearOutdoors Unfortunately the store that I purchased the gun from has since closed. I am glad to here that the store was able to help you out. I have looked on line for getting a different coloured frame and back straps but I just cant justify letting my money end up in Stoager's pocket. BTW great video and proud to see a Canadian gun person not afraid to be on youtube promoting the sport.
@@BlackBearOutdoors For holsters try "Solely Canadian Custom Kydex" out of Grand Forks BC. He has done three holsters for me and the quality is very good. I would be surprised if he did not have the APX on his list.
I have an APX Compact, and prefer it WAY over any Sig or Glock. The US Military only went with Sig because they are cheaper to manufacture, thus cheaper to buy.
I have the Beretta Apx and love it, but I think they missed out, they could have the Apx use the 92 magazines since there are a lot of those magazines out there it could have made the gun stand out better
Hi and thanks for supporting our channel. Yes we have many outdoor and indoor ranges where you are able to fire restricted firearms. On public/crown land you are able to use your non-restricted rifles where local bylaws allow.
Ok dumb question. Bought mine recently from Superior outfitters. Took it out to the range. And to my knowledge it seemed pretty off-sight. Shots were going way to the left. Shot with steady hand and all. Curious. How should I sight this gun in? Hope that can be answered!
@@BlackBearOutdoors I would say I have about 6 years of experience shooting rifles and shotguns. However I hardly shoot handguns and only got this one for conceal-carry reasons and I wish to get better. So when it comes to handguns I’d say hardly any experience. I find I know how to operate the APX in terms of disassembling loading and etc. However I’ve only shot it once.
@@allanpyka4052 Usually a low left can be fixed with grip and trigger pull etc. Nothing beats formal training but I will link a Jerry Miculek video that could be very helpful. The APX also employs combat sighting which means that your front sight dot should cover the target you want to hit as opposed to the pumpkin on the post sight picture. ua-cam.com/video/ChSazF41q-s/v-deo.html
Apparently Beretta has a frame mounted external safety kit for the APX. Maybe drop them an email. There are a few other striker pistol also with external safety options like HK and the M17 /P320 Thanks for supporting our channel.
yeah, big gun, a few weeks ago I got my gun possession permit from the supervisory authority (Carabineros de Chile) and bought this beauty called Beretta APX cal. .40 S&W The best investment I have ever made to take care of my family and home
Can you help me please i just bought mine a week a go and the slide jams on me if i pull it back and also when i tried to shoot it the slide jammed at the end it did not lock and i couldn’t shoot until i hit the back of the slide with my hand to push it back to its place so that i can shoot again
Yes. FMJ ammo is what we used in the video. It means it is a full metal jacket round and will not expand. Great for the range. Thanks for supporting our channel!
also beretta has a safer trigger, you dont need a safety like m17 (it is optional tho), it is more robustly built with two contact points on the chassis and wont shoot you in the ass if you drop it.

@@BlackBearOutdoors Bretta sells 3 plates for red dots, (fast fire, and 2 others) my issue is that no one has demonstrated this option, and put a plate on with a red dot. (the rear dovetail is used on our non ADO versions)
_The Beretta APX Line of Pistols_ Good gun for sure but it is one of *_the least successful pistols_* that came out of the US Military test for a new sidearm (SIG P320 won that). The _Gun Industry loves it_ because they push anything that may make money. They would sell their mother if they could make a little money. Here are the negatives: - It is a wide gun. There are many slimmer pistol that hold 15 or more bullets. - Accessories are very limited for this gun. Not many aftermarket parts or holsters for the APX line of pistols. - The looks are a love it or hate it thing (this is not important but worth saying). Here are the positives: - It is inexpensive due to the lack of popularity (large supply, low interest) - It is a good gun for OWB use. Conclusion - IMO The Beretta APX line of pistols are one of those guns that are average but not outstanding. The gun will work well but there are better guns out there if you have more money (the excellent, HK VP9, the very popular Glock, the SIG 320 that beat the APX in the US Army competition, etc.) If you are of low income buy it (the APX). If you are poor though buy a Taurus PX4 or a Hi-Point. But if you have average income or above get a better pistol.

You're correct. I should have worn them but forgot to bring some.
Just got the full size- for carry- :-)
I think that is a great choice. Thanks for supporting our channel!
@@BlackBearOutdoors Can you please do a video on adding a sight and plate, as there are 3 options i can find- but they arent to detailed on which optic fits what mount- and if it is ok with the pop up indicator.
@@mudgem3742 Mine is not the Red dot optic ready version. This article lists which optics are compatible. Hope this helps. www.ammoland.com/2018/04/beretta-apx-rdo-pistol/#axzz6hEse0VUv
@@BlackBearOutdoors Bretta sells 3 plates for red dots, (fast fire, and 2 others) my issue is that no one has demonstrated this option, and put a plate on with a red dot. (the rear dovetail is used on our non ADO versions)
Apx or cz p 10 ??????
Both good but my personal choice is the APX. Can’t go wrong with either.
For me : HERO !
I agree 100% Thanks for supporting our channel!
_The Beretta APX Line of Pistols_
Good gun for sure but it is one of *_the least successful pistols_* that came out of the US Military test for a new sidearm (SIG P320 won that).
The _Gun Industry loves it_ because they push anything that may make money. They would sell their mother if they could make a little money.
Here are the negatives:
- It is a wide gun. There are many slimmer pistol that hold 15 or more bullets.
- Accessories are very limited for this gun. Not many aftermarket parts or holsters for the APX line of pistols.
- The looks are a love it or hate it thing (this is not important but worth saying).
Here are the positives:
- It is inexpensive due to the lack of popularity (large supply, low interest)
- It is a good gun for OWB use.
Conclusion - IMO
The Beretta APX line of pistols are one of those guns that are average but not outstanding.
The gun will work well but there are better guns out there if you have more money (the excellent, HK VP9,
the very popular Glock, the SIG 320 that beat the APX in the US Army competition, etc.)
If you are of low income buy it (the APX). If you are poor though buy a Taurus PX4 or
a Hi-Point. But if you have average income or above get a better pistol.
I was disappointed to see the manual said not to dry fire it too much it will damage the gun
Most manufacturers say that, but I have never had any damage on any striker fired pistol dry firing 1000's of times preparing for IPSC matches.
hands of blue 2 x 2

You forgot to add "and better in every way" .For example no cheap and nasty plastic sights to replace.
