Analysis

Beretta introduced the APX A1 Carry with the rest of the A1 refresh. It is the pocket-size 9 mm gun in that line: slimmer grip, shorter slide, and an optics-ready cut that the first APX Carry did not have. The A1 Carry also picked up the standard APX takedown lever. It remains in the current catalog. Used examples with both magazine lengths sit at the top of the value range.

Top Quality, Great shooter
By Pocketgunner on 22 Feb 2023
This gun is built solid as you can get. Almost over built. Stainless Steel throughout the firearm. Modular take down makes for a very easy gun to work on or clean. These are extremely mild shooting Micro's. The trigger's are great for EDC. Gritty at first but break in and become very smooth and deliberate. The new Serrations are the best I have ever seen. Totally reliable. Mags look like custom 1911's. The Carry is built to last a lifetime. Very under rated firearm. Beretta has shortened the trigger from the past models. Grip is great for most size hands. As soon as you pick up this gun, you can feel the quality. I highly recommend the APX1 Carry.
