The Beretta Px4 Storm: A Tough Little Handgun

Beretta Px4 Storm Review

The Beretta Px4 Storm is a renowned NATO-certified DA/SA semi-automatic pistol. Its absolute durability, ergonomics, reliability, and interchangeable parts make it a top choice for military and police personnel all over the world.

It is very easy to operate, that is why it is also a favorite for personal, home defense, and concealed carry. It comes in different calibers, 9x19mm, .45 ACP, and .40 S&W.

I had the chance to fire a Beretta Px4 Storm and the first things that came to my mind were the words smooth, easy to shoot, and accurate.

The Beretta Px4 Storm is a semi-automatic, short recoil barrel handgun chambered in 9mm, .40 S&W, and .45 ACP. It has a locked-breech with a rotating barrel and reinforced fiberglass technopolymer frame.

Its external hammer changes the trigger pull when cocked back — it goes to single action from double action.

The Px4 also features Picatinny rail for mounting lights and lasers, interchangeable front sight, reversible magazine catch, chrome lined bore, internal recoil buffer, and an ambidextrous safety that acts as a decocking lever.

And to prevent it from AD, it has a visible automatic firing pin block. This pistol comes in four variations.

Ease of Use and Performance

The Beretta Px4 Storm is very accurate and very easy to operate. One cool feature of these Beretta handguns is the rotary barrel, which disperses recoil energy away from the shooter’s hand and exceedingly decreases muzzle jumps, thus making this handgun fast and accurate.

Disassembling and reassembling is also very easy to do. It also comes with two extra back straps to give shooters a more comfortable feel.

Pros and Cons

There are a lot of good things about the Beretta Px4 Storm and one of them is its toughness. The design can withstand rigorous shooting and fits very well the military standard for durability.

It can fire thousands and thousands of rounds with zero part breakages.

Another awesome thing about the Px4 is it comes in different calibers. I like this pistol in 9mm.

The lines are snag-free, making unholstering and reholstering fluid and easy. The rotating barrel is simply superb in soaking up recoil, allowing for quicker target acquisition between shots.

Although I like this pistol, I still think it is a disadvantage for concealed carry. While some of you may not like the slide-mounted safety but with a little practice, it will grow on you.
