Hello everyone. I finally got my Beretta CX4 carbine in .40. I have been drooling over these for a while. I have just had one chance to shoot a couple mags so far, I 'll give a full range report when I get out with it this weekend.
I got a good deal i think, it was the LE package that comes with the nice cleaning kit and hard case. It is the 96 model (uses model 96 pistol mags) and came with 2 11 rnd mags. It was $539 NEW!!! Couldnt pass it up.
It shoots real nice so far, enough kick to be fun, but almost no muzzle rise so real easy to keep on target. It BEGS for a red dot sight!!! Its kind of wierd that it doesnt come with the top rail. I have one on order so I can put my c-more on it. I also ordered some 20rnd usa mags and some 15rnd mecgar mags, we'll see how they do. I'll get some pics up this weekend.
Ok- question:
What ammo? I shoot 165 gr golden sabers in my pistols, but I am thinking of using 155 gr silvertips for more velocity in the carbine. But I am also think that maybe the 180gr loads generate enough velocity in a carbine to be a good choice too. Any thoughts? Anyone have any data on .40 carbine performance?
Thanks
