You made an excellent choice. Congratulations and let us know how you like the pistol.

Congratulations. Can't say I'm familiar with the Beretta, but the tech details and price sure look good.

I'm looking forward to your range report. Let us know what you think.

You need to ask for advice before you buy a handgun. The G17 is obviously too small for you. I have never seen finger extension meant for subcompact Glocks on G17. If you put +2 extension on that mag it will not look so stupid. I would have recommended FNX-45.

Some thoughts after shooting the APX this weekend- I am definitely glad I went with something bigger than a Shield. For someone as new as me, even a 9mm seems to be plenty of gun.

It is a ton of fun, though, and pretty comfortable. No problems whatsoever.

Honestly I wish Iā€™d gotten the full size. Mostly because I learned after I bought the thing that most weapon lights are not compatible with the Centurion and compact APX models. Also because I think the full size would be even more comfortable. My bad for not figuring that out before- live and learn.

SDblackhills, I'm glad you like it. If you are looking for a smaller weapon light, take a look at the Streamlight TLR-7. You are correct that the full size APX is more comfortable to shoot, but the difference is not that great. The APX Centurion fills the same niche that a Glock 19 does. It's smaller and more concealable than a full size Glock 17 and more controllable than a compact Glock 26 or subcompact Glock 43. The Glock 19 & the APX Centurion hit a sweet spot between concealment and control.
