The original APX is one of my favorites. I have over 2000 rounds through it and it’s been flawless. Who knows how long it will be before we see this new version, but I can’t wait to make a video on it.
It’s out now. Just did my paperwork.
The new Beretta APX Gen 2 is an outstanding, phenomenal handgun. It was kind of overlooked before, it shouldn't be this time.
My husband and I picked one up this week. It's a fantastic handgun. It's as good as Beretta say's, the trigger is very smooth with a short reset.
The only thing I would like to see is a colored follower in the pistol magazine.
We're going to purchase a second one soon. We cannot say enough good about this handgun.
😁👌
Anybody have an idea how it stacks up against an HK VP9SKB? I haven't found a better trigger yet on a striker gun. Love my good triggers, I didn't think a 1911 trigger could be improved upon beyond what a good smith and trigger job could do. Don't own any Berettas yet, but I'm always looking
@@edk.9939 I liked it about the same. Basically I like it more than an M&P 2.0 and Glock 17 but not as much as a Walther PDP. Above average in other words. Also, it’s modular, so you might be able to replace the trigger depending on parts availability
@@edk.9939 To me APX trigger is terrible, similar to the NY++ trigger on glocks.
I like both the original APX and the APX A1 full size I would honestly like to have both I already have the A1 carry, I love Beretta they're my favorite manufacturer and go-to for any and all situations
With all these Ax models coming out, Will we eventually get a PX4 A1?
Really late to this, but did you watch TFBs interview of Beretta’s CEO? There was one a few months back and he says they’re planning on modernizing the PX4 so that’s awesome.
@@cosyfoot7867 yeesss!!!!
Px4 no needed
This is pretty much the new px4
@@kareemissa4936that’s what I’m saying
I purchased the APX A1 a few weeks ago and purchased the APX A1 tactical yesterday after I saw that Beretta has a $100 rebate offer. I shot both at the range today and I can say that Beretta did a great job. Both are great shooting pistols, they feel great and I love how I could interchange the magazines. I didn't like the all black front sight on the tactical, but I painted a bright yellow dot on it in order to get my eyes on the front sight faster. Get one or both.
Well done Beretta. Really looking at getting the APX now.
Great looking pistol! I loved the original APX, should see some of those priced well on the used market with the introduction of the A1.
My original APX may show up on the used market. ...when I die haha. Love my APX.
Love the APX A1! Best deal on the market by far
Beretta Apx very nice tools need it in 40..
I like the looks of this one
Fantastic pistol and video. Will definitely be making a purchase of this pistol very soon. Thanks for making some fantastic products.
This pistol is a piece of art😃
I may BUY one too.
Need the Centurion A1!!!
What kind of optics system does it have? Adapter plate or straight bolt on the frame like FN and Taurus?
Plates which are sold separately.
DECIDED I will be purchasing this Pistol.! LIKE the full size Pistol.!!! 👍®️
Since I'm sure you guys already have plans to release A1 versions of the Centurion and Compact, will we hopefully see them share the same serialized chassis? I'd really like to have the full size slide on a shorter grip, maybe the Centurion grip.
Great question.😁
I'm from Italy and I bought this gun last week and can't wait to go and shoot it
My first beretta
Just picked this up last one the shop had we will see how it does. Traded a Glock in 45 for it hope it runs good
2 more days until I get mine!!! Can’t wait to take it to the range
Yeah….. so about the optics plate for my OPTICS READY apx a1 carry I just bought and was supposed to choose during the warranty registration…….
so...no more of any of the Gen 1 styles from Compact to Centurion to Full size? or do the gen 2 come later this year?
@Beretta when will the APX A1 Centurion be available?
When can we expect a new Target model?
Great performing pistol!
Orgoglioso di essere Italiano 🇮🇹😎
APX A1 Centurion Please!
Exactly what I’m waiting for! Hopefully great news this year!
@@WisSota_Boy hopefully so
Why would you not have the APX take 92 series mags ? Couldve sold far more pistols that way
CHICLAYO PERU 🇵🇪 🤝 🇮🇹
The longer 17rd grip and 4 inch barrel selling point for me
OWB carry … in a Muddy River Tactical custom holster …
SUPER.. APX A1.❤
I want this with the original slide serrations.
Cant wait to try it 🤤🤤🤤
Does it come in 40 S&W?
When it will be shipped to Serbia?
Unfortunately I can only ever find these in carry size and I would prefer full size for an APX
What the best holster for this pistol that want mess with the finshing on it anybody
One can be confused with the Beretta APX A1 Carry, which came out before this Beretta APX A1 Full Size.
It’s not a full size still! I
And if you’re American could you please tell how much it is in USA ?
@@medellincartel8109 well according to the law, it had to be atleast 50 percent or more (made in usa parts) for it to be considered made in usa.
@@SnD340 I meant it’s price in USA? Wanted to compare it with the price in Pakistan
@@medellincartel8109 in usa its 480 USD in stores right now.
When will they make a micro compact that won’t be a single stack
0:09 bro vortex dot is huge as hell
i need one, thanks
Just wondering: is it possible to make a striker fired pistol with a locking block system insted of a browning tilting barrel system?
Why would you even want that?
@@echofoxtrotwhiskey1595 lmao, it would be nice to have something different on the market, every company is going in the same direction.
@@francescog.a.4533 But as I understand it, locking blocks aren’t as durable as a tilting barrel.
@@echofoxtrotwhiskey1595 i would say the opposite, in the sense that both are great systems but, to me, locking block system has a slight edge in accuracy, reliability and longevity.
I posted the same question under TFBTV's video and someone replied to me that the Browning system is used because it adapts better to be compact. Probably the Browning system is also cheaper to manufacture.
@@francescog.a.4533 It’s just another part that breaks and has to be replaced. I don’t really see the point when tilting barrels are just as durable, and accuracy has a lot of other factors besides how the barrel unlocks.
Is a optics plate for the Shield RMSc available for this?
Sadly no. I’ve looked myself lol. They do make one for the APX A1 Carry. Apparently the rationale is that this is the full size version so they assume you only want to run a full size optic (so they have plates for footprints like the Trijicon RMR but not RMSc or Holosun K-series). Bummer because I’d mostly plan to keep a small optic on my EDC gun but also be able to mount it onto the APX A1 sometimes. (And yes, I know I could purchase separate red dots for both but I’m not exactly made out of dough!). Beretta could just make another plate for that footprint, and that footprint is so popular that I’m surprised they haven’t yet.
I mounted an RMS2 on an A1, using a slightly modded DPP plate. You need to reduce the diameter of the DPP posts by a few thousandths (I used a needle file), and I remember getting screws from McMaster Carr, so the DPP mounting screws must have different threads, too.
ORLY? Because I was just about to buy a Walther PDP Pro HD. I may be swayed. #TeamBeretta
Itd be interesting to see if this uses a similar fire unit(pre cooked striker i believe) as Walther or Canik and give them some more competition in that nitch.
The Pdp is slick though.
@@ferrumchnop6617 All the internet guys say the PDP has the best trigger out of the box, anywhere, anygun. Typically APX triggers are meh.
Yeah looked to see if they made any mechanical changes in the apx. They did not.
No denying Walthers are great, canik basically cloned them but a few iteration older.
Looks good i like it
I am going to buy one
I'm getting one
I dont know, I am not happy with you Beretta. I bought a 1301 and had to exchange it once and get my money back after the second one. And I was told that nothing could be done about it.
Bring it to Mexico please!
Looks like my HK VP9.
Might be better for small hands. My VP-9's grips are both too large for me,even with their 'S' panels.
@@charlesbeall2589 Mine fits me personally like a glove but with the backstraps altered my wife can comfortably use it instead of her Springfield Hellcat I bought her. I'm a huge fan of the VP9.
I’m getting me an APX with the steak sauce.
I'm thinking dinner and a movie date? Maybe just Netflix and chill? 🤔
Beretta APX A1 until you put a few hundred rounds through it isn't easy to feel strip for some people and it doesn't come with any optic adapter plates. Can buy pistols at similar prices that come with optic adapter plates. You use to give a free plate of their choice when people registered their original APX, why did you stop? They aren't that expensive to make, now you charge around $50 per adapter plate. This is why your pistol failed, never mind not offering a lifetime warranty like the other firearm manufactures.
Most of these striker fire pistols are great, starting out with the Glock. I don't even want a hammer fired for self defense or competition.
I agree with you for self defense, but for competition, I haven’t felt a striker trigger that comes close to any CZ or 1911.
@@echofoxtrotwhiskey1595 Langdon Tactical hands down has those beat with a 92 LTT. Even a CZ done by Cajun Gun Work.
@@mitchgarbeno3788 That list wasn’t comprehensive. I just have more time with CZ and 1911s than other hammer fired guns.
@@echofoxtrotwhiskey1595 fair enough
in canada we have the same type of videos, but they are hockey sticks instead of guns :(
Lol Beretta pulled a Glock on us. Change the aesthetics and call it a day. Same trigger, removed the finger grooves and redesigned slide serrations.
I think having it come optics ready by default is a game changer (wished it came with suppressor height sights though). The redesign beavertail area that allows you to get a deeper/higher grip with the web of your hands should make a massive difference while shooting/in felt recoil if it's anything like the CZ P10C as well.
@@JacksonWalter735 the beavertail is maybe a cm deeper. The optic cut was already on the pre A1 model. There is no difference other than aesthetics.
@@paulh6101 doesn't look like 1cm deeper if you compare the photos of the two models. The optic cut was only available for the RDO APXs and those weren't as widely available or as affordable. These come optics ready by default. You also have a new recoil spring. I think it's the Heavy Metallic RSA Guide Rod Assembly that's an upgrade for the APX if you buy the parts online. You also get more checkering on the grip frame and different grip texture. The trigger undercut looks a little deeper, but I'm not too sure without getting my hands on this. The sights are tritium this time around instead of the white dots. New finish too to be more durable. The stupid safety plunger is also removed. I think this is closer to an M&P 2.0 upgrade from the original M&P than a Glock generation upgrade.
@@JacksonWalter735 u literally sound like gen5 glock fan boys defending the changes from the Gen 4, they are miniscule...the trigger on the original apx was the main issue, it was very creepy without any type of positive reset. It did not change, this pistol will do just as well as the original...
@@paulh6101 nah you just sound ignorant. The primary change from the Gen 4 Glock to the Gen 5 was the removal of the finger grooves and the marksman barrel. You can't tell me with a straight face that all the changes the Beretta made to the APX A1 were so minor that they're closer to a Glock generational upgrade compared to something like a M&P. Hell this is probably closer to a Walther PPQ upgrade to the PDP than a Glock Generational upgrade. Even a blind person can probably tell the difference and see the changes while they might not notice changes from one generation of Glock to another. Just because Beretta didn't improved the trigger like you wanted doesn't mean the changes were miniscule. I literally gave you a list of things and your brushed off things such as coming optics ready by default as minor changes. The trigger could also be improved with the Competition Firing Pin Spring Assembly for $25 straight from Beretta's website (used to be $15 before 2022) if you cared that much about the trigger.
The magazine is not very corrosion resistant. Unless you drown it with oil.
It's a nice gun, especially with the stupid price of $250. However, it's not "optic ready", it's "optic semi-ready".
❤️
You misspelled Glock.
I wish this pistol used 92 magazines. That would be a 100% solid sell for me. Unfortunately, it doesn't. I will eventually make my way to buying one, but later on. There are a couple of 92's in the way that use my stock pile of magazines. Otherwise I am impressed with everything else.
Two totally different guns. For one, the APX A1 way smaller (yes, even the “full size” APX A1) than the 92, it’s striker fired, and the grips (ie where the magazine goes) are much different, and the APX in general is a much different & newer design (eg has an internal chassis system that can be removed).
This would be like me getting mad that old Sig p226 magazines don’t fit in p320s. I mean c’mon.
I like Danielle.
Junk. I will never buy another Beretta.
Marketing! Lol
Your product is solid but this teaser for it is weak.

Are you guys still jerks when trying to contact your CS? Not impressed with my interactions after buying a broken gun from you guys at retail price
marketing wank. pleeeeeez stop with the marketing wank
I don't want a striker-fired pistol. I don't want a plastic framed pistol. Why did you quit manufacturing the 92X compact with rail, and other 92 series pistols? Those pistols got rave reviews.
I just bought a new 92x compact with rail. What do you mean they’ve stopped making them ?
@@royalcopley881 Beretta quit manufacturing the 92X compact. Even Langdon Tactical can't get the 92X compact.
I know what you mean. The 92x Compact's grip is way too small for my hands and I can't imagine carrying a gun if that size with only 13 round capacity, but it's perfect for my girlfriend and it has been difficult finding one for her.
I doubt they stopped manufacturing, they're just behind on everything.
I hope it's better than the apx a1 carry. The trigger on mine is absolutely horrible. Watch my video ua-cam.com/video/Xl1uRYeU7Sk/v-deo.html
