Looking forward to it.
God f*cking dammit people, youre giving me even more decisions to make here, with your helpful input and you experience and whatnot.
Next time just let me stay ignorant so that I dont actually have to decide anything!!
I am not a fan of changing platforms, especially when the point isn't to get a better platform which is the only acceptable reason (think hipoint to Glock), but rather to "try" a different gun to see if you like it better or if you shoot it better, which in my opinion is always the wrong reason to buy a different pistol - especially so for carry.
I can assure you that the majority of people cannot shoot their chosen pistol beyond it's ability. Hell, I can count on one hand the people I know and have seen first hand be able to outshoot the precision (that's accuracy and speed) capability of a Glock. So going from a Glock to something else is usually an emotional decision, one I'd highly recommend not falling for.
Is the px4 attractive? Yeah, I'd love to get one. Maybe one day down the line I will, for testing purposes. Will I carry one? Highly unlikely. Not because its somehow lacking, there isn't, but because I have great experience, results and still a long way to go with the Glock 19 and 17 I carry daily, respectively.
There is always training value in using a different platform, but you have to really consider the reasons behind it. I have several Glocks of various modification levels because I need to know why one of them does and why in certain instances. Diagnosing an issue is as important as simple competence.
