I've owned my Beretta apx since 2017 I love it. Its my everyday carry (the full size)
You carry it appendix?
@@Andino. in pant right hip
Bought this time last year, carried until I bought Canik SC!!
APX IS ME AND MY SON'S FAV😎😎
@@johnleon2594 they're are pretty close in size right?
The APX Campact and Elite SC?
@Huntski Kerbiden-Zhaojing probably a Kydex
I carry a full-size APX as my EDC, and I freakin love this pistol.
Just bought it and have been carrying it as my edc and love it
Hands down the best Stock Striker Fired Handgun on the market. Literally no contest.
i own a couple of these i absolutely love them have well over 2500 rds through them and it is such a reliable weapon
I’ve put 3000 rounds through my APX and love it. Swapped the springs out for competition ones and using it for IPSC. Reliable, accurate and fun to shoot
Finally some beretta ❤️ from this channel.
I bought it the day it was released. I was extremely excited to buy it. 4 years later it’s holding up strong. Loves aluminum case
Glad to see the Beretta APX getting some love. Haven't seen too many videos about the APX since it was released. In my opinion, the Beretta APX line is one of the best (if not the best) deal you can get for handguns with the quality and features that you are getting. To me the trigger is a little spongy (love the break though) and taking out the trigger module is more difficult compared to other guns out there, but I don't really care about that at $300-325. You can almost buy two APXs for the same price as the popular handguns from other brands. I never own a Beretta handgun before (mainly own Sig and M&P with 1 Walther and 1 Glock), but I've been very happy with my APX.
You can get 20 rounders with the extended base plate. I have 2 of them. This is also a modular frame design, so you can swap out frame colors since the trigger housing is the serialized part of the firearm. 😎🤙🏼 It's very simple to do. I swapped out the grey frame and put the black back strap on, and it looks mighty sexy
I had the same problem with my APX. I could not consistently group my shots for nothing. I couldn't figure out if it was me or the gun. I had a buddy try it out and he had better luck than I did but still not super consistent. None the less, I bid farewell to the APX.
Love my PX4s
I love mine!! Had it since they came out.
I think you were accidentally sent MAC's pistol! ;0)
LoL ...
I love the APX line and found my full-size to be accurate and reliable. I carry the compact. both accurate pistols.
Gun looks great, I love the slide serrations. Keep up the good work!
I've got a 92S and a PX4 in 40 and I love these guns.
Grabbed my APX as soon as they came out. Not an issue since day one. Eats everything and accurate, friends that shoot it are surprised at how comfortable it is.
I bought one when they first came out it came with two 21 round mags and cabelas had a special with Beretta four four more free by mail, my gun has been flawless
I loved how Eric avoided the “G” Word ! Had me cracking up 😂.
It rhymes with clock, or block, or smock, or crock, or frock. Something like that.
Hey Eric. Try shooting 2 inches circle at 4 yards first before shooting those plates, then you can say it's the arrow, not the Indian".
The APX is pretty well known for making people hit low.
I've had my apx centurion for about 3 months and I've put close to 800 rounds thru it. It's never wondered from where I aimed. Never malfunctioned as well.
When I shot my APX the sights printed high about 2.5 inches. I put an adjustable sight on mine. There are many sight combos on the Beretta website. I like my sights at point of aim not a 6 o'clock hold like the stock sites seem to be.
Just got one for Christmas. I love the feel of it.
I did the same 😎😎
She's a SHOOTER 🔫🔫
I appreciate you going out of your way to emphasize it could be your handling of the gun. Yet as some point you have to admit that the gun maybe defective. I would send it back to the manufacturer.
Yea sometimes you just get a bad one..
Great pistol. Proudly made with love by Fabbrica d’Armi Pietro Beretta. Beretta: what else?
Bought one on BUD’s with the LE/Military discount for around 350 when these weren’t that popular last year ...love this pistol. Everyone asks what it is when they first see it.....
Very strange. Good luck figuring it out. I picked one up recently and it is very accurate. I shoot it better than my G17 G5. It’s a great value at the new lower prices.
I’m having the same problem with my beretta APX centurion. I’ve been thinking of sending it back to beretta. Looking forward to the update video.
Looks like a good little pistol, all these polymer lightweight pistols hurt my accuracy during target shooting though. The best handgun I ever owned and shot was my Smith & Wesson .500 magnum 10.5” barrel Performance Center revolver, I for sure knew it was in my hand and it was the most accurate and comfortable revolver I will ever shoot...
I own the full size, compact, and the carry. I've had excellent accuracy with all 3 using different types of target and defense loads. Maybe this one has a defect?
Hey guys normally I don't comment, just watch. But today I must. I've had an apx since early 2017 and it has become one of my favorite shooters. Great trigger and multiple times I have stacked round on top of round while plinking. I truly believe that you have a lemon on your hands. Please send it back then re-review what you get back. Hate to see one of my favorite pistols flop on your channel. Thanks for what yall do and keep it up.
Currently own the 92fs have had it maybe 2 3 years now and will be adding this to the collection
I have this one and the centurion they both shoot perfectly and accurate
Yeah I trust him but mine shoots like a laser
92fs still king
Ya but heavy is the head that wares that crown, and so gathers a storm on the horizon, watch out M9/92 here comes the PX4.
I have it in my will to be buried with my 92FS
Yes it is ....I have 8 of them.
@@BeansAndBullets1391 PX4 is great. Just a tad 'thick.' Reliable, good trigger, but a tad chunky.
Mad Dog shittiest ergonomic pistol on the planet. Idk how anyone prefers a 92 variant over anything
Have a px4 in 45, not my favorite but it is accurate as anything.
@TTiger 8626 I also have one. I love it. What are your problems with it?
@@katiek.8808 not the most comfortable to carry, as well as only holding 10 in the factory mags. 1 of my mags dont feed reliably also. But it is accurate.
@TTiger 8626 I would be contacting beretta about the mag. Thanks for the answer I was just curious. I find it comfortable to carry. I’m not so worried about round count as most. I carry either my px4 or 92fs. It’s definitely more comfortable than the 92. In comparison the 92 is much heavier.
@@katiek.8808 yes it is, Have that also and a taurus pt92, both are heavier than the px4 even though they are a smaller caliber. I usually carry for my EDC a canik tp9DA.
No one asked about your px4
I have a 40cal, after being repaired twice by Beretta's service it's finally running fine.
The striker override button reminds me of the same concept as on the Smith & Wesson M&P pistols
ERIC looks like such a dad 😂😂😂
Cabelas has the 4 sizes on sale right now for 330.
I have one in FDE and I want to like it. Unlike other people I like the look of it. Unfortunately I had the same experience, Shoots all over the place. I’m hesitant to completely blame but the gun, but I shot my P10c and VP9 the same day and they grouped fine.
I have seen a lot of videos of guys putting in the Galloway precision 20 or 22 pound recoil spring assembly in it made a huge difference they were putting most of the shots in a 2 to 2 1/2 inch group at 10 to 12 yards so that is a funky recoil spring assembly in there And only 17 pounds something to think about
I appreciate Eric just saying he doesn`t know why he is having accuracy problems. This is what makes shooting so interesting to me. There is a reason but it can be difficult to find.
You guys are guitar guys too. So you understand having a few Gibsons, Fenders, Gretschs, ect. laying around never hurt anyone. Same with firearms. Let them all play, even the funny ones.🤟
I bought a Centurion I love it the trigger gets better after 200 rounds, I been also firing the APX Full and I don't see what you guys are seeing about some rounds go top right...
Great vid my man
I have the same model in fde, and I was shooting 3" groups at 20 yards straight out the box with Winchester white box 115grn.
John Prophet same here, I can literally keep rounds in a 12 by 12 at 50 yards with it standing and no rest. And I am not competition worthy by no means possible lol. The thing is accurate as hell.
@@kentucky89nation17 all I can say is he must have gotten a lemon. I've owned many pistols, and the APX is by far one of the sweetest shooting pistols I've owned.
I have one and they have some of the best ergonomics of and polymer gun I've fired. I can say though that I have had some similar issues with accuracy. But again, it's difficult to say if it's operator error or not.
I had a Ruger SR9 shoot 3 left and 3 right. Glad I'm not the only one. It was also fiocchi grain...
Thanks. I appreciate the video.
Good luck with your Beretta APX!
love both the APX and the APX a1
Lookin forward to your Kel Tec reviews! I keep hearing bad things about the KS7 and I dont know anything about there rifles yet! keep us informed and in the fight!
great info, thanks
Great video !! Thx for the information
This is the best deal going right now. I just ordered my centurion RDO for $520, and you can find all the non-red dot models for less than 350.
I love my Styer M9A1!
I've got 10 or so different Beretta pistols, but never had an accuracy problem with the APX. I've used Fiocchi, Magtech and S&B. I'm gonna have to go out on the range today and check again. Maybe got a bad barrel?
Try the new APX Target. I would like to see that put through the paces. My PX4 Storm full size is fantastic with LTT kit.
I was wondering why I hadn’t seen any of your videos pop up on my phone in a while. They un-subscribed me from your channel for the SECOND time!
I love the APX but I couldn’t shoot mine well until I installed the green Beretta competition striker spring.
The grip feels great and it looks cool. Mines been completely reliable through 1400 rounds of FMJ.
INTALL THE BERETTA COMPETITION STRIKER SPRING!!
Really interested to see how this turns out.
You definitely sold me on the APX.
Glad I seen this video,was thinking about buying one,you changed my mind.....
Carl Ford man don’t let this steer you away if you want one. The prices right now are really great. I say go rent one and shoot it if you can. Whether it was their shooting or this particular gun, this would be an anomaly.
I have an apx compact and it shoots just as well as my g19 or vp9, something strange going on with that particular one
I agree i have the APX centurion and im shooting 3" groups just fine at 15 yards. I think their particular barrel was cut a lil funky. They should send it back
I literally just bought the APX compact a few days ago and haven’t had a chance to shoot it yet. I’ve been watching reviews and this is the first bad review I’ve seen.
@@heloanp81 it's nowhere as bad as they make it sound. It's a Beretta!!! Mine is fantastic. It's my second gun ever and I shoot it better than the first pistol I bought and I've had more training with my first pistol. I really think he got a lemon. Idk how or why but they should just definitely send the barrel back. Or if they just shoot it some more. They just may have to learn that one
I’m a lefty, so finding a pistol that’s ambi is hard. I had it narrowed down to the APX compact or the CZ P10C. Both guns had excellent reviews and both brands have a good reputation. I ended up choosing the Beretta just because it was $329. I love how the APX feels in my hand and the trigger may not be as good as the P10C, but it’s not a bad trigger and I can put that $100 that I saved on buying it over the CZ into the trigger if I end up not liking it. I agree that 8888 must have gotten a lemon. I’m sure he’ll figure out what’s wrong with it and get her fixed to show how good it really is.
I just bought the compact also and waiting for it to arrive. Happy that I read this post because I began to worry.
Try a new or stronger recoil spring. A weak or out of spec spring will unlock the action too early. The bullet doesn't have time to leave the barrel before the next cycle. Sometimes there's a bad batch of parts, or manufacturers cuts corners. Outside of that it's more serious like the barrel.
Nice gun, but I love my SA/DA Berettas.
For the price its a fantastic deal. Love the Spaghetta look.
This is very much a step up from my previous pistol ruger p85
I realize that it's two years on. But I think it might be that particular weapon. I just got one and it's spot on thus far. I'll watch your follow up video and see what you have found.
I'm noticing that it shoots diagonally placed groups. Most likely there is some bigger movement in those directions. I would send it back to Beretta. They either grinded more from the barrel or drilled egg shaped hole in slide. Low left could be shooters fault, but high right most likely isn't.
Diagonally placed groops are tipically caused by heeling the grip (center to high right) and jerking the trigger (center to low left).
I feel a Beretta warranty claim coming 😭
Just another striker fire! :0)
I love the APX line.
However I hate the stock sights.
The big baseball on the front kept me from being accurate and consistent.
However I changed out the stock sights for fiber optic and I can now stack my groups easily
Ive tried one and the trigger was very crisp, no "sponge" that I could tell
Me to , tested one today,, trigger was almost as good as a canik,, take-up is extremely short and reset was minutely longer than canik, I wouldn't turn around for the difference,, come on guys, this trigger snob shit is sometimes taken too far, I have found myself turning into one because of all the videos I've watched, this trigger is excellent imo, maybe it was just the one I held, but I held a top of the line canik side by side with it,, hardly any difference
Yeah, I agree on all of this trigger nonsense. Every gun is different and you must be adaptable. I have never been inaccurate with a single weapon to include single action revolvers, double action revolvers, semi auto handguns, semi auto rifles, bolt action rifles and 12 gauge shotguns. 30 years of shooting and I have yet to experience this sort of issue. This list also includes milsurp. I guess I could just be lucky in that regard. I have found that your mindset is the most important. I just see how a gun feels at first and then adjust what I'm doing to become accurate. I don't know about gun reviews anymore. I don't expect a gun to fit me. I expect to adapt to the gun.
Great pistol! Buds had them for around $300
a very unique pistol Eric!
Erick has thee most awkward stance when it comes to shooting pistols. He reminds me if Bernie were shooting a pistol.
If Bernie shot a pistol the bones in his arms would shatter. You ever see the footage of him attempting to hit a speed ball? It ain't pretty. 🤣
great video the slid rust a lot on my and the chassis rust to
I have recently acquire a APX Carry, and I felt the same as you... shots were all over the Place even at 10 yds. So, I thought it was me, but then, I shot with a Sig 320 and later with a Glock 23 and got way better groups. The APX isn’t a bad gun but I think there is something about it that have you getting 4-6” groups at ranges as close as 7-10yds. So, it wasn’t you having a bad day!
It was him. A apx carry is way smaller than a p320. Of course you're going to have better grouping with a full size firearm that a carry. Less recoil.
No excuses
Brought a APX currently being shipped 😃
STILL A SAMPLE OF ONE !!
I bought mine from PSA about 2 weeks ago for $329. Honestly only run 300 rounds through it so far. You are right about the trigger being spongy. It fed everything, but groupings were not great. Ergonomics really aren't bad.
So would you buy the APX again knowing what you know now or pass and keep looking?
@@dallasparty316 Honestly it is not a bad pistol. My CZ has a better trigger. I don't think I would buy it again, But I will hang on to it. I think at the $330 price it isn't a bad deal.
Fits terrific in my hand and shoots well for me. I like the design, but I'm a novice and didn't know that mags that fit aesthetically into the grip and inverse serrations are ugly. Have the full size, getting a Centurion next, and then a Compact frame to see which size is best for EDC.
At in 2016 i was down to 2 pistols, apx n the p320..after having everyone say sig i choose the p320. N it may of been the single n only correct choice ive made in my life. I love the p320s, i have many and i can shoot them really, really good...but since beretta re-released the APX n reduced pricing for a combat pistol that was directly made for the military trails. Ill probably get it now....well those wondering shots aren't very great.
Are you a left-eye dominant/right handed shooter?
I just bought a apx compact because it was so cheap. I wanted a decent cheap gun i could conceal when I’m working outside. Ive taken it to the range once along with a Glock 19 I just bought. I was pleasantly surprised with its accuracy, and was shooting it just as good as the 19. I’ve not put many rounds thru it yet, but I was happy with my purchase. I’m still a Glock fanboy though.
It would be awesome if you guys did a video on the Canik TP9SFX!
I'll be getting this as my nightstand gun
Have there been any updates on the accuracy issue?
Hey Eric obviously I’m a little late to the party. Not sure if you still have/shoot this APX. I have all four versions of the APX and absolutely love all of them. For the full size they do have an extended 21 round magazine available.
Can you guys please do a comparo between the APX, PX4 and 92FS/M9? I'd love to know your thoughts on how they compare! I own a 90-Two (that late-2000's 92 redesign that didn't get as much love as the 92A1) and I think it's fantastic but the PX4 and APX intrigue me.
The trick to getting good groups with this gun for me was getting use the trigger and configuring using the a palm swell that fits your hand right. The guy who sold me this gun had larger hands and I couldn’t get my finger around the trigger, which hurt my groups, but after replacing the palm swell with a smaller one I was getting groups equal to my sig P320. The guy traded me the APX for an old Eotech and I have to say it’s a great gun. My only complaint about it is that the recoil spring is so strong that you could potentially slip off of the slide when trying to rack a round in with wet hands or in a slippery situation. But hey, a for a reliable modern firearm, under $300, I couldn’t be happier.
Also the ergo's on this thing are great! My dad isn't a gun guy at all, but he picked up and said it felt so great in his that he was wondering if he could buy it from me lol.
Check the chamber by performing a plunk test. The chamber might be cut to short causing the bullet to seat in the lands.
Do I see a Palmetto PS9 review in the future?
Walther ppq copy. Badass. I love my ppq and the looks. I want this apx. My main carry is the strike 1. But I'm alway open to different guns.
I own a full size apex and I love it. And have not see the issues that you seemed to be having. I would if I where you shoot a different gun that ones prob a dud. Also wile I’m no great expert. My trigger does not seem spungy at all
Always thought this would be sweet.
There are 21-round extended magazines available. Beretta is being very aggressive with their pricing on these things. Many people find that the larger backstrap allows them to shoot a little more accurately, since the APX uses very small grip circumferences in their design. In my experience, the APX pistols that I have shot are capable of 2" groups at 25 with good ammo, and 2.5" - 4" with cheaper stuff. I think a lot of people initially struggle with the small grips and different trigger. My APX target so far promises to be even more accurate.
It's very possible you got a lemon, but I've seen a lot of people struggle with their APX triggers and grips initially before they get things squared away. At any rate, mine shot very well with Tac-XP Black Hills 115gr +P. If you're not able to get a 2" - 3" group with match ammo, I'd definitely think you got a lemon.
At any rate, you're not alone in having an "off day" the first time you get your APX out there, and I haven't read anything about out of spec APX's shooting with poor accuracy on things like the Beretta Forum outside of one or two who's frames were out of spec and switching out the frames fixed the accuracy issues (something you could try). In fact, if it were showing serious signs of consistently not shooting well, the first thing I would do is try a frame swap on the gun, as that's the only thing I've seen in the wild affect the accuracy.
Hey guys, did you ever get around to doing a follow-up on the APX? Tried searching your other vids but couldn't find anything. I just ordered one and am anxious for your results hehe!
