Considerations & Trade-offs

Hammer-fired operation and a manual safety/decocker add control, but they also mean a different manual of arms than striker-fired pistols.
The all-metal construction may appeal to shooters who prefer a solid feel, but it can be less convenient for extended carry than lighter alternatives.
Its SIG P226-like layout will feel familiar to many, yet the Arex-specific controls and setup still warrant a hands-on check before purchase.
