I happened to be in a gun store that had one in stock - and the Beretta salesman there with his own.
It shoots very well. Nice small groups.
The grip area is smaller. The shape is not that of the Vertec, but rather that of the Browning HiPower. Good size for all hands.
The grips are interchangable. The grip area slips out, not just the backstrap.
It will take 92 magazines. Their own magazines are 18 rounds, with larger capacity on the way.
The frame rail does ruin the lines of the classic 92 shape and the rail cover does too.
The weight feels like it is mostly metal. Maybe because of the grip, but it just feels quicker in the hand.
The sights, front and back, are standard dovetails. So those three-dot sights can be changed for your favorite.
The F model is available first. There will be a wait on the G model. Forties out soon.
Also, the magazines will fit in a CX4 Storm because of that 92 compatability.
Other news: The PX4 Storm will be available in .45 ACP. Right now it is in Army SOCOM testing. A big Army order will speed up production. I think capacity is 12 or 14 rounds.
Anecdotally, the CX4 carbine deals with poor maintainence fine. I got this second hand from the salesman, who said that was the experience of a PD that issues them in squad cars, but keeps 20 for training and evaluation.
He said that July 15 was Beretta National Range day and he'd be back with all his goodies. Range time for all that want to try out Beretta inventory. So call your range and see if they have a Beretta salesperson stopping by on that day.
