Accokeek, MD - Beretta is excited to announce the launch of a new pistol from our PMX family - the PMXs. After years of refinement of the PMX for military and law enforcement agencies around the globe, the PMXs has been translated into a semi-automatic pistol variant for civilian and modern sporting applications.
The PMXs is a highly reliable and proven direct blow-back design, coupled with modern polymer components to enhance durability and save weight. Packed with versatile features such as fully ambidextrous controls for user adaptability, multiple attachment points such as QD and sling mounts, and a ½” x 28 TPI threaded barrel for accepting 9mm muzzle devices.
Built for reliability, durability, and performance demanded by NATO qualifications, PMXs is one of the most adaptive pistol platforms that guarantees performance in any operating environment.

Built from a heritage of durability and reliability that has passed NATO quality standards, the PMXs has been adapted to a semi-automatic variant.
The PMXs features fully ambidextrous controls with multiple QD and MIL-STD mounting interfaces and has four Picatinny rails at 12, 3, 6, and 9 o’clock to allow the mounting of a wide range of accessories.
With a cold hammer-forged 6.9” barrel with ½” x 28 TPI thread pitch for attaching muzzle devices, this new pistol consists of a compact design with a high-strength polymer that reduces weight while increasing durability for an agile solution for any operating environment.
“Beretta USA is excited to introduce the PMXs to the US market finally,” Nicola Lorenzi, Pistol Product Manager, said. “The PMXs represents the evolution of the legendary PM12, widely adopted by military and law enforcement agencies around the world, and one of the guns used by the US Marines Corps to guard the US Embassy during the Tet Offensive in Vietnam. The PMXs inherits the reliability and durability of Beretta SMG platforms, being one of the few such platforms to be NATO Certified.”
Please note that adding a shoulder-mounted stock or pistol brace to the PMXs will convert that pistol into a short-barreled rifle requiring special licensing under U.S. Department of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) regulations. Additional restrictions may also apply to imported pistols. For guidance on what is required to legally convert your PMXs into a short-barreled rifle, contact ATF at www.atf.gov/firearms/national-firearms-act-division.
The PMXs retails for an MSRP of $1,499 and comes with two 30-round magazines. The PMXs debuted at the 2023 SHOT Show and will be on display at this week’s 2023 NRA Annual Meetings and Exhibits (Beretta Booth # 4349) in Indianapolis, IN.
