Beretta PX4 Pistol

Anybody know anything about this thing? Beretta's website says it's for law enforcement only.

Interesting looking pistol, I always interested in Beretta's rotary pistol bolt design, but never seen a diagram for it, kind of a neat design. I imagine that it will be sold to civilians, pistols never stay law enforcement only for long, company seem to say that on release from time to time, but they end up at civilian gun stores same as any other. Nothing from the design makes it a law enforcement only type of weapon, no FA, Burst, etc. My only thought is that Beretta is using that line due to magazine capacity, and if you live in state that managed to enact its own AWB, then I suppose it would be LE only there.

from their website:

The new Beretta Px4 Storm pistol is the most advanced expression of technological and aesthetic features in a semiautomatic sidearm.
Built around a modular concept that a pistol can be adapted to different needs and modes of operations, without compromising on ergonomics and the renowned Beretta reliability and performance, the Px4 Storm emphasizes power, ease of handling, performance and reliability.
Initially manufactured in three calibers, the Px4 Storm uses an exclusive Beretta designed innovative locked-breech with rotating barrel system, the strongest action to date.
The light yet durable frame employs modern thermoplastic technology through the use of technopolymer reinforced fiberglass.
Modular structure, ergonomics and interchangeability of parts make the Px4 Storm the ideal firearm for law-enforcement use, as well as personal defense.

He may have meant Beretta's homepage, where it does in fact say:

"At This Time Offered to Law Enforcement Only."
