The Px4 Subcompact is manufactured in the United States. 45 ACP) and Compact versions are manufactured in Italy. The weapon also incorporates a Picatinny rail under the muzzle to allow flashlights, laser sights, and other accessories to be attached.
With short exposure to any kind of light, the night sights' luminescence lasted up to 30 minutes.īeretta discontinued the luminescent 3-dot nights sights for the Px4 in 2010, replacing them with standard 3-dot sights. The Px4 originally featured an interchangeable, luminescent 3-dot sight system (coated in Super-LumiNova) for use in dark or low-light situations. This allows easy access to the firing mechanism for cleaning.īeretta designed the Px4 so that it would be difficult to re-assemble incorrectly after a field strip. The entire hammer unit mechanism can be removed from the Px4 as a single group. The steel transfer block's cam pin is 5 mm wide and 2 mm deep. The 6-R rifling of the barrel generates counter-clockwise torque which is harnessed by the locking system to reduce the amount of pressure required from the rotating barrel lock's cam and pin system to affect unlocking. This allows the barrel to fully support the case. The magazine holds the top round directly behind the barrel's breech end so only a slight feed ramp is needed. This is different from the rotating takedown pin of Beretta's previous hammer-fired pistols, which the Px4 Subcompact retains.
