Has this appeared in anything yet? If so it's going to get deleted, just warning the author.--AgentGumby (talk) 22:32, 14 October 2017 (EDT)
- Good call. --Funkychinaman (talk) 23:03, 14 October 2017 (EDT)
- It's odd that you ask - I've got reliable intel that one of the major armories just received a few of them earlier this year. They should start appearing in TV shows soon, but I guess the page can stay deleted until then. -23:10, 14 October 2017 (EDT)

The Beretta APX is a striker-fired, semi-automatic pistol manufactured by Beretta. The APX was initially designed in 2016 after five years of development for the U.S. Military's XM17 Modular Handgun System competition, however the APX did not secure the winning contract. The APX features a black steel slide and an interchangeable railed polymer frame that is available in black, desert tan, shadow wolf grey or olive drab green. Unlike the Beretta 92 pistol series, the Beretta Cougar or the Beretta Px4 Storm, the APX features a breech block cammed into engagement with the slide, in the same manner as was first seen on the SIG-Sauer P220 pistol series. The core of the system is a stainless steel chassis which allows true modular reconfiguration. Grip backstraps are interchangeable.
The APX features a loaded chamber indicator on the rear of the slide and a striker deactivation button that allows decocking before the gun can be field-stripped. The trigger mechanism features a drop safety and an automatic striker block safety. An ambidextrous frame-mounted manual safety is available on demand as a factory extra.
