Hey everyone, I am pthinking abiut getting a px4 compact and was wondering what aftermarket parts are out there for them and if any of you have any seguestions on improvements

They really dont need much improvement. Maybe some night sights.

 

I added low profile safety/decocker levers which did change my type f PX4 to a type g ( no safety, decocker only).

 

It's a great choice and will serve you well. Great size and capacity with the unique rotating barrel.

Hey I'm selling one check

yeah, what are you looking to change on it? only thing i can think of would be the sights, maybe some novaks.

Personally, I like the all metal predecessor better. If you don't decide on the PX4, check out the Beretta or Stoeger Cougar. Same gun, different manufacturer. Berretta stopped making them. Stoeger now makes them on Beretta's old machinery.

I think that the PX4 is probably the best polymer DA/SA pistol ever made and well worth it.

 

As for aftermarket stuff... well, night sights would be your best investment, followed by a compact tactical light or laser.

i agree with diamondd817, great gun, very very underated... but if I had change anything it would be to put the low profile safety levers and change to type g to make make decocker only, this option can be done without changing the factory levers.

I don't own a PX4, but i've tried one, and i just couldnt get comfortable pulling the slide back without hitting the decocker.. sometimes i pushed it up.. sometimes i pushed it down.. it just got in the way. i prefer the overhand grab instead of the slingshot grab to pull the slide back..

 

any thoughts from you guys about it getting in the way? It totally changed my perception of the gun.. great trigger, great ergonomics.. just hated that slide.

I can't do the overhand grab, my palm get's pinched like 25% of the time.. not so much with the px4, but my 1911 and 92 both bit me pretty hard a couple times, so i get nervous doing it and am uncomfortable. Maybe im just doing it wrong.. I actually do a sling shot rack and use the safety to my advantage i always cock with the safety off, so i grab the slide at the last few serrations and allow my thumb to sit under the safety, i don't have to squeeze as hard to this way and get some leverage on the slide using the safety.

I actually use it for leverage. Helps me pull straight back

In lieu of night sights, I've got a Crimson Trace RailMaster red laser for mine. It is very solidly built, fits securely, very ergonomic to activate/turn off and looks neat.
