The Beretta APX, a striker-fired pistol that is surprisingly not as popular as it should be. Designed largely for the U.S. Armed Forces' XM17 Modular Handgun System competition. Beretta had offered to provide their M9A3 model at a reduced price as a continuance of the M9 procurement program but was informed that the changes to the M9A3 were so significant that it fell outside the scope of an Engineering Change Proposal (ECP), and that the United States Department of Defense preferred to go through a new procurement instead. The Army Times reported on January 19, 2017, that the winner of the MHS competition was the SIG-Sauer P320, but the APX performed well, passing every test in the competition. According to Beretta, the pistol can withstand a 45,000-round firing schedule with 5,000 rounds between stoppages.[8][9] Soon after, on February 28, 2017, Beretta USA announced the APX availability for the US civilian market starting on April 15, 2017.
The APX is a pistol specially developed by Beretta for the armed forces and law enforcement personnel. Top priority was given to reliability, durability, and ergonomic features. #WinTheFight is Beretta?s slogan and the hashtag for this high-performance sidearm. The acronym ?RDO? indicates that this variant is ready for mounting red dot optics. Adapter plates are included for mounting point sights with Docter, Trijicon, and C-More footprints on the metal slide of the APX.
Like the original, this gas-operated airsoft pistol produces a convincing recoil. The low barrel axis ensures better control and accuracy in rapid firing. Pronounced serrations on the heavy metal slide allow it to be grasped almost anywhere. The polymer frame has a non-slip finish and a Picatinny rail on the dust cover for optional accessories. The front sight is adjustable in windage for optimal results even with iron sights, and the Shoot-Up can also be adjusted. The Beretta APX RDO has a reversible magazine release, allowing it to be used by left-handers. A trigger safety prevents accidental firing.
