The Beretta APX was the gun Beretta put up for the US Armed Services XM17 modular hand gun trials. The APX on a reliability test - came in second only to the Glock. Beretta was proud when they brought this gun to market for $600 - and nobody bought it. Now they're reasonably priced and a heck of a deal. They are fully convertible to ambi if you're a lefty. The ergonomics of the grip are fantastic and the trigger is quite good. The only thing "wrong" with the trigger is the reset is a little weak. The slide serrations are non-conventional - but are functional. The magazines go flush but still have purchase for you to rip them out in case of malfunctions. The gun is very accurate and easy to shoot accurately due to the great trigger. Holster support for this gun isn't great but Beretta sells all of the stuff you could want for the gun directly from their website. It's a gem of a gun - I wish I'd gotten an optics ready one.
