Has anyone shot one of these yet? I handled one at a shop in Montana and was disappointed in the feel- it was a very cheap feeling plastic IMO. I was excited when they were first announced because of the ergos but on holding it it felt sorta clumsy. Curious to see what the performance is like.
 
MAC on youtube has done a few videos on it now, give it a look, he seems quite honest in his assessments. IF it is NR up here, and under 2 grand, they will sell up here I am sure.

Are you sure it was the .223 version to played with and not the cheaper .22? Most polymer and plastic rifles have the cheap feeling in my opinion. But that doesn't mean they cant be durable. As for it being clumsy, I guess it comes down to personal preference, experience and ergonomics. With that being said, the Beretta ARX is obviously durable and ergonomic enough t a degree to serve as front line rifle for the Italians and others.

MAC did a initial hands on video about the Beretta ARX. His follow up review video is nowhere to be scene. He also did a video regarding the alleged magazine compatibility issues.

He touches on some accuracy stuff in this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fUy_k5S9-I&list=UUZ-qxagOkAmCEP-Tu6YliUQ Video isn't only about the ARX however.

I handled the .223 and the .22 knockoff. They look identical though, the .22 would be a fun plinker.

Thanks for the vids for those who posted!
