It's a brand-new production run Brigadier. Beretta started production in October of last year on a limited run of Brigadiers & Vertecs for the 100th anniversary of the company producing semi-auto pistols. Mods done so far: Genuine Beretta stainless-steel guide rod & 13# titanium nitride recoil spring Genuine Beretta Elite-II skeletonized hammer Genuine Beretta Inox 15rd magazines (got them on sale + a 15%-off e-coupon) Wilson Combat short-reach steel trigger Wilson Combat 16# hammer spring (the 'D-spring' mod) Wilson Combat extended mag release Wilson Combat low-profile single-sided safety On any 92, a trigger job is 85% in the springs. Once I get about 400 to 500 rounds through her, I will strip-down again & polish the hammer, strut, sear, & trigger bar. She has about a 9lb DA & 4lb SA pull right now with these mods.

Just finished installing a bunch of Wilson Combat mods & did the first 'detail cleaning' - I'm super happy with the outcome! Much thanks to my cousin at Cheyenne Gunsmith and Firearms LLC for getting her for me at only 10% over wholesale!

W2SJW started following Italian perfection? In my eyes, yes!

NJ FID/PP Compliancy Project
W2SJW replied to Maksim's topic in Current New Jersey Gun Laws Discussion
Washington Township (Warren County) 18 days to get my P2P (just received it today for the brand-new Beretta Inox Brigadier I just got). 20 days in June of 2013 when I moved up here to re-issue the FID. No extra forms at all & the department secretary is a sweetheart! -

I got my original FPID & one P2P when I lived in Branchburg in 38 days (2009) - the PD there in town is a pretty cool bunch to deal with. I Moved to Washington Borough in June of this year - the PD secretary took care of a change of address in about 21 days, and was VERY prompt getting the questionnaires out. I was quite pleased both times. -
I PM'd him last night - none in stock, and 'slim to none' on the chance to get any more...

Guys, Do you know if there is a way to take a stock 17rd G17 mag & permanently block the bottom to eliminate the last two rounds? I just saw something over in the rifle forum where a user epoxied a block into his rifle mags to permanently keep them at 15. I'm just wondering if that's possible to do with my G17...

Military SBR version that's switchable between semi & full auto fire modes (the safety has three positions on this model):

Yep, latest revision with the same shared lower as the Mx4, and thanks!

Just a quick update - I was not happy with the TruGlo, so I sold it to a good friend that wanted it for his Hi-Point 4595, and I went with a Bushnell TRS-25. I have almost a perfect co-witness with this unit now as well:

Guys, Sorry it's taken me so long to reply - work has been crazy the last week or so, but I've been getting all your responses on my mobile. I was at the Heritage Guild in Easton last Saturday, and they only had one Cx4 left (by the barrel size, I would assume it was a .40 or .45). I’m having a hard time finding the soft nylon case at a good price, as I don't want to bring the gun to the range in the hard-case. I joined the Beretta forum a day after joining here, and those guys are a treasure-trove of good info! Many discussions about the future of this weapon - I thought long & hard about where to spend my money, and I'm not disappointed with my purchase (I promised myself I wouldn't let news & images of what the replacement/redesign might be make me go "oh $hit, I gotta have that instead!"). Hopefully, I will get to the range & try her out on Friday or Saturday. I picked up a laser boresight for $27 & at least got my red-dot close enough to start with... Also, am I losing my mind, or does this forum not have a spell checker? Firefox won't spell-check in this text cell...

I got mine for $799. I had some Christmas cash from my family that also helped to knock $100 off the main ticket cost. I guess I got lucky...

HG-Easton told me that these are the latest generation, and they come with the pic-rail on the top from the factory. I'm going to leave the internals alone for now, but if I have issues in the future, I have no qualms about getting both the Sierra-Papa upgrade kits.

Guys, The Heritage Guild here in Branchburg turned me on to this forum, and I finally got around to making an account today. I hope to learn a lot from you guys (only been an owner of firearms since 2009).

Hi guys! An employee at the Heritage Guild turned me on to this site when I was there the week after Christmas (the Branchburg location). The only other forum I regulary participate in is GlockTalk.com, as I've been an owner of one since 2009. I had no idea you guys were here! I just grabbed a brand-new 9mm Beretta Cx4 Storm from the Easton location, and I'm looking forward to my first chance to get back there & try her out. Numerous friends have Hi-Point carbines in 9mm & .45, but I could not see myself buying one. I fell in love with the Cx4 as soon as I saw it, and with Beretta focusing the production lines almost solely on the full-auto models for the police agency in India that put in a large contract, these are getting as hard to find as hen's teeth/unicorn farts! Anone else here own one, and willing to give your own personal opinion? Most other public forums I've read, the owners love them.
