Like I wrote earlier, I just got a Beretta Px4 Storm in 9mm. This piece was MADE for me. Words cannot describe my love for this sidearm. I already have used it to stop a carjacking with my father and his prison guard friend. Long story, don't ask. But anyways, I'm gonna take a leap of faith and say I like it more than I like SIGs!
