I read an article last year that the apx would be released for civilian sales late 2015, now it's 2016 and looking like we won't be able to touch it until late 2017. I was very interested in this pistol, wtf beretta.
Of all the Glock ripoffs, this one is definitely the ugliest. It makes the XD look like a goddamn CZ.

Why? It's just another polymer frame striker fired handgun.

>sees polymer stryker fired pistol
>hurr durr durr 'nother glawk rip off, if you luv glawks so much y don't you buy one
>>29774173
allegedly has great reliability and it's probably because it's a new pistol from beretta. Some people think it's ugly as shit and others think it's sexy like PX4. Can't really make any judgments on it, so far it's fairing well in MHS.

>allegedly has great reliability
That's a basic requirement at this point.
>so far it's fairing well in MHS.
Oh great, another taxpayer funded marketing campaign. I can't wait to buy the tacticool dipped version of everyone's $500 pistols for $1,500.

But this is literally a complete copy. Low profile slide stop (unusual for beretta), glock trigger safety thing, even has fucking finger grooves for fucks sake you retarded faggot
>>29774242
Beretta said "when" it is released, it will have an aggressive price to performance ratio, so I'm guessing no more than $700 for factory base model.
The PX4 got DQ'd when the air force was running the program. So this does not surprise me at all.
Does anyone know who all submitted packages? Glock, Sig, and Beretta are obviously obvious, but who else?
>>29774262
you named 3 similar features it has on it, one of which is a feature that is specific to the target market.
>seamline on the trigger guard

>>29774268
>Glock 17: $475
>H&K VP9: $550
>Walther PPQ: $500
>S&W M&P: $400
This thing isn't exactly selling itself. It's entering a saturated market and not bringing anything new to the table.

Serrations are actually alot more useful than people give them credit for.
>>29774375
aghhhhhhhhh when will they finish i wanna know so i can buy the army's NEXT SUPER AWESOME HANDGUNNNNNNN and then see marketing fucking everywhere about it on gunblogs and gun websites.
Yes i'm this much of an autist.
Why hasn't there been any news on it in about a year?
>>29774439
Military trolling everyone into thinking they will adopt a new firearm

No I mean if beretta was going to release this thing soon why is there so little info on it? When I look at news for everything is from last year, as a consumer I'm interested in buying and im sure many other people are... Wouldn't they want to keep the civilian market updated?

Every. Damn. Time.
It's telling that the wiki page links to the Joint Combat Pistol, Individual Carbine, and the XM8 rifle.
>>29774375
I wonder what STI submitted. K100 maybe?
>>29774496
I think it's this thing:

>>29774375
HK fucked up by putting the VP9 forward. Hopefully they put a closed striker retention plate in.
>>29774520
What in thee fuck. That thing is hideous. It'd better if they submitted the k100. Fuck, that thing even comes in a select fire version. It'd be perfect!

>>29774520
I believe they submitted the STX which is the striker-fired variant. I think the MHS requirements listed NO single action
It was completely absent from SHOT show and no one has seen it since 2014, so I assume Detonics is dead again
>>29774552
Agreed. But it's they're new flagship. Even though the P30 is better, IMO.
>>29774195
>great reliability
What modern gun doesn't have that as a bullet point holy fuck
Please come up with something more original. There's nothing groundbreaking or innovative with this pistol. It looks like a VP9, which is a great gun, but still a glock wannabe.
If you just don't like glocks or HKs for some reason then I guess it'd be a justifiable purchase.
>reliability
Is no longer a buy factor for guns, come up with some new material.
>>29774576
Yeah, that one looks like the candidate. I just clicked on the first gun they had listed.
>>29774566
fuck you nigger, the thing's a cyberpunk 1911
