The new Beretta APX multi caliber semiautomatic pistol has finally arrived!

Rumors had been spreading ever since the company launched the sub-compact BU-9 Nano semi-automatic concealed carry pistol worldwide, a couple of years ago: Beretta's next service and defensive pistol system would not have been based on one of the Company's tried and true concepts, but on something that they had never went for before.

The new Beretta APX pistol has been presented at the 2015 edition of the IDEX, the International Defense Exhibition and Conference that takes place every two years in Abu Dhabi (United Arab Emirates): Beretta showcased the final version of its long-awaited new semi-automatic pistol system conceived for sports shooting, personal protection, home defense, and service/issue purposes for law enforcement, military and private security personnel.

The new Beretta pistol is dubbed Beretta APX.



This is what the company disclosed so far about its new semi-automatic pistol: following the market trends and demand for a certain type of features in a semi-automatic pistol, the new Beretta APX comes built around an ergonomically-molded reinforced polymer frame fitted with a built-in MIL-STD-1913 "Picatinny" rail for tactical accessories. As standard nowadays, the Beretta APX is issued with interchangable backstraps, which also include grip panels, in order to better fit several hand sizes and thus remain viable to shooters of all genders, ages, sizes, and build.
