BERETTA PX4 STORM: LITTLE ITALY AND IT'S BIG GUN

About this video

Colion reviews the Beretta PX4 Storm full-size handgun chambered in .45 ACP, covering its design, ergonomics, and features. He describes the gun’s unique rotating barrel system, ambidextrous controls, and double-action/single-action trigger, while noting both strengths (such as feature-rich design and reliability) and weaknesses (such as basic ergonomics, 10-round capacity, and non-intuitive safety placement). Colion characterizes the PX4 Storm as a modern evolution of the Beretta 92FS with a distinctive Italian aesthetic.

Key takeaways

• Colion explains that the PX4 Storm features a unique rotating barrel system that Beretta claims reduces recoil and improves accuracy
• Colion notes the safety mechanism works opposite to most handguns (sweep up to disengage rather than down), which he finds non-intuitive and problematic
• Colion points out the 10-round magazine capacity is modest for a full-size .45 ACP handgun, comparing it unfavorably to smaller options like the Glock 30
