PX4 is bretty gud if you like DA/SA and decocker safeties.

It's one of LifeSizePotato's favourite 9mm pistols if that means anything

>px4 storm
Yes, good choice.

>Winchester White Box
No, bad choice.

Shitcan or sell the WWB immediately. It has significantly underpressurized loads that will cause every single round to fail in a px4.
>>
>>30391502
Is that a PX4 Compact you have?
>>
>>30391525
Yes, 9mm.

Just bought my first pistol, I have small girly hands and never could comfortably shoot a full size handgun. I bought a used 380 Bersa for $230. How'd I do /k/?
>>
>>30391502

what do you recommend? I can give this to my dad he uses Winchester in some of his pistols. He has a much larger collection of ammunition than I do so I can trade him for something else.

I have read 124 grain is the way to go with a px4 and that is what I got but I am open to other suggestions. I just got the gun so I haven't broken it in yet.
>>
>>30391544
Is it an early model?

I'm asking because the first 9mm PX4 Compacts shipped with out-of-spec recoil springs that made them choke on lighter ammunition. Beretta fixed the problem immediately by sending out new recoil assemblies, but there are still a good number of pre-fix Compacts floating around. I was unlucky enough to rent one at a local range and it was a jammomatic with range ammo unless locked in a death grip.

For comparison, I've done a fair amount of shooting with the full-size PX4 and it goes through light ammo without issue. The platform itself doesn't have any known problems with range ammo - just the early Compacts do.
>>
>>30391566
That's actually not a terrible price
They retail around $290-315 around here
>>
>>30391598
Negative, it's a later model. I suspected that might have been an issue but mine wasn't affected. The Px4 is just picky about what ammo it takes and it doesn't help Winchester makes utter garbage.
>>
>>30391631
Well that sucks to hear, then.
>>
>>30391502
If you're gun can't run on 9mmNATO, there's something very wrong with it.

Probably my least favorite Beretta pistol tbf
>>
>>30392342
My Gen3 Glock 17 throws brass in my face with 9mm NATO, no malfunctions with it yet though.

It doesn't brass to face with other 9mm either.
>>
>>30391215
hmmm

that grip angle looks funky

I love my Px4, was one of those guns where I shot it and immediately decided it will be mine.

Nice choice. Don't seem to see Bersa pistols in the wild to much.

>>30392726
I hope you're not insulting me :^(

>>30391215
I love my storm. The safety is a pain in the ass though. I should turn it into a decocker only one of these days...

>>30391371
im sure its a good gun...but it looks kind of like an autistic semi-auto imo
>>
>>30391570
Federal American Eagle is pretty good ammo and its just as cheap as wwb
>>
>>30394072
Alright I will get a box later. I might just put a few through the gun with what I have now though. Just to play around. Can't wait!

>>30393751

What do you mean? It is not the prettiest gun in the world but I like its looks overall. Not as blocky as a glock.

I have heard it compared to a hi point before, as far as looks go. But I disagree personally.

A chromed model might be kinda cool to see.

I hope it's a trans furry, personally :<)

>implying every pistol hasn't been dumped by an LEO agency for having "problems" solely attributed to the pistol and not to the retards using them

Plenty of agencies have sent back and replaced Glocks, SIGs, M&Ps, etc for the same reason. It doesn't really mean anything. Plenty of large agencies still use all of the above, PX4 included, with no complaints. I see PX4s every time I go to Canada (the CBP carries them) and they have plenty of money and no reason to keep something that doesn't work.
>>
>>30395221
>CBP

The CBSA, I mean. I always get them confused.
>>
Not to hijack a thread, but I'd like some advice.
I finally have some extra money and will be buying my first firearm. I've settled on a revolver, potentionally a .357 or .38 special.

There's a guy selling this in my local area. Is it any good? How's the price?

Hey OP, I think you did OK. The px4 is a fun little gun, and you cant beat the price. Sure its not as refined as some other pistols but it shoots well if you got big hands. I just wish I could find some non cali mags somewere
>>
>>30397921
the .357 has more muzzle velocity so I'd assume a bigger bang with sharper recoil, .38 I'd assume is a little more tolerable (My 5'1" fiance handles the .38 pretty well, so I'd assume even with girly hands you'd be fine)
