So I've got a full size on the way, traded my SA high cap for it. Been reading a ton of reviews going back to the very beginning, and watching a ton of vids too, of course. Not the first time I've looked into it, I first got intrigued by the PX 4 several years back, did some research, and decided it needed to be on my "someday" list. Well, someday has arrived, I should be able to pick it up next week .
I'm most interested in info/opinions/experience with the full size .45 ACP version, seems there's not nearly as many of those around as the 9mm and .40. Two things of primary curiosity, how is it for concealed carry, and how's the recoil? Reviews are really mixed on the latter, some say the recoil is really mild, the .45 feels like a 9, and the 9 feels like a .22. Others say not much different than any other comparable pistol. Size and weight is very similar to the Sig P220 I used to have, recoil was never an issue for me with that pistol. Also very close to the CZ P-09 I still have, I'm looking forward to shooting those two side by side. The CZ is my current carry piece, the Beretta is actually a little smaller and lighter, so I could see it giving the CZ a run for that position .
Anyway, looking forward to hearing your thoughts and experience, will post some of my own when I get the chance. Later.
