Beretta Cx4 Storm Course
The Beretta Cx4 "Storm" is a carbine tactical civilian market product based on the military Mx4 Storm series, building on the longstanding foundation of the endless line of excellent Beretta pistols. The weapon bridges the product gap between the famous Beretta 92 pistol and the Beretta ARX-100 series of tactical rifles, which are new for the new millennium.
In addition to being used as a sporting and hunting weapon, the small and lightweight Cx4 is also used by some US police forces.
The Cx4 features low recoil through the proven Beretta single-action recoil system, and can be configured with an optional adapter to accept existing full-size Beretta magazines from a different series. The base model accommodates the ubiquitous 9x19mm pistol cartridge, although 40 S&W chambers are also available.
The standard Cold Hammer barrel length is 422.5mm, the overall weapon length is 755mm, and the weapon's empty weight is specified at 90.8 oz. The cold hammer forging process provides a higher level of accuracy when firing and extends barrel life during subsequent target practice - a tried and true firearm craft for dozens of years since its inception It has been improving over the years.
The Cx4 is also ambidextrous in design, after a few small tweaks to its construction - the charging handle, safety lever, magazine release and ejection port are all reversible to facilitate left- or right-handed shooting. The front and rear rear sights can also be adjusted according to the user's needs.
The Cx4 has a lightweight yet strong body structure that accommodates the necessary internal working parts. The barrel extends only a short distance from the body, and the front end blends seamlessly with the overall design, expanding down to form the front support for the trigger ring. The pistol grip is ergonomically designed with a thick trigger ring.
The function lever on the side of the receiver is large and easy to use and reach regardless of the primary operator. Add loops to use shoulder straps. The shoulder pads are padded for comfort when pressed against the shoulders.
Like other modern firearms, the Cx4 offers customizability through secondary rail support. The full-length section is standard on the top of the weapon and is located between the front and rear sights for mounting optical attachments or laser sights. The retractable section of the Picatinny rail near the front end provides an additional mounting surface for mounting tactical lights etc.
Additional rails can be attached to the sides of the front end. Beretta offers a full line of Cx4 accessories to accommodate even the most discerning shooter - from extended magazines to hard and soft carrying cases and spare spacers to Beretta branded vertical fore grips.
Beretta currently sells four different Cx4 Storm shapes: . 40 S&W Px4 series models contain fourteen rounds, while 9mm Px4 series models contain seventeen rounds. The Series 92 includes two 9mm magazines with a capacity of 10 or 15 rounds.
also mentions other cavities related to the Cx4 - these include the 9x21mm IMI and the .45 ACP. Therefore, the number of magazines can vary from an 8-round box to a 30-round box.
The Albany County Sheriff's Department, NY is a recognized Cx4 operator (in the .40 S&W Chamber of Commerce). Before the civil war in 2011, the Libyan government ordered nearly 2,000 prototypes of this type, so the status of their deliveries is unclear.
This model is issued to commandos of the Venezuelan National Guard.
