Beretta's A350 Xtrema Max5 is made to work but doesn't give up any of the classic features.

Bird of Another Feather: Beretta’s A350 Xtrema Max5 12 Ga. 3.5″ Waterfowler – Full Review.

When my editor gave me the opportunity to try out the new A350 XTrema Max5 from Beretta, I was happy to oblige. The last Beretta shotgun I looked at here was a prima donna – the Beretta 692 Sporting B-Fast over and under. While that one was certainly made to shoot and admire, I might have a little heartburn tossing it into a John boat in the middle of January. This 3.5-inch, 12 gauge A350 Xtrema Max5 model is all about maintaining a working gun reputation, but that doesn’t mean it skimps on classic Beretta features.

Is The M9 Dead? First Look at Beretta's New Striker-Fired APX 9mm

Is The M9 Dead? First Look at Beretta’s New Striker-Fired APX 9mm

Two weeks ago, GunsAmerica got the invite to attend the Beretta Tactical Summit hosted at The O’Gara Group training facility in Virginia. The choice of venue was a deliberate step by Beretta as they aggressively step back into the tactical market, and featured toys from across the Beretta line. It was a really nice change from usual product releases, and the facility offered a chance to really wring out the new APX 9mm striker-fired pistol. We had to hold off publishing due to an embargo on info on the pistol, but finally, its day has come.

The Glock 19 (top) uses a tilting barrel short recoil system while the Beretta PX4 Storm (bottom) uses a rotary locking system.

Rotary Action Autopistols—What Are They, and Why Do You Need One?

Rotary action pistols are somewhat rare when compared against more traditional tilting barrel designs. With a rotary-action pistol, the results are similar, but the method differs. The barrel and slide still remain locked together for a hot second until pressure drops. However, as the slide travels back, the barrel rotates, rather than tilts, to unlock from the slide.

With an assist by Italian design firm Giugiaro, the PX4 Storm looks pretty nifty.

Beretta .40 PX4 Storm Pistol – A Closer Look – Range Report

One of the standout features of the Beretta PX4 Storm is the rotary action short recoil system. Like most other 9mm and up centerfire pistols, it uses a short recoil system that temporarily locks the slide and barrel together for a hot second during recoil, allowing the pressure to drop to manageable levels. After a fraction of an inch of rearward travel together, the slide and barrel separate, allowing extraction of the cartridge, recocking, and chambering of a new one. The PX4 just goes about that locking and unlocking process in a very different way with the rotary system.
