The Centurion variant delivers a mid-size APX footprint with a 3.7-inch barrel and 15+1 capacity in 9mm Luger. It is striker-fired and finished in Flat Dark Earth on both the slide and the fiberglass-reinforced polymer frame, with full-height grasping serrations that offer confident slide manipulation.
A removable stainless-steel serialized chassis sits inside the grip frame, defining the firearm’s core. This example notes matching serial numbers on the serialized chassis plate and on the barrel hood/chamber. Ambidextrous slide-stop levers and a reversible magazine release provide flexible control setup, while the integrated trigger safety is standard to the system.
Sighting is handled by steel 3-dot sights, with both front and rear units dovetailed into the slide for durability and serviceability. The dustcover carries an integral two-slot MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny-style accessory rail for mounting lights or other compatible accessories.
This is a first-generation APX Centurion (pre-A1) without a factory optics cut. It was made in Italy and bears CIP proof marks along with a BERETTA USA CORP. ACKK., MD import mark, providing clear provenance and regulatory verification.
