Any experts there? Found a decent deal but hve never used any fn products.

I love FN pistols. My brother has a FNP-9mm which is the older model. Great trigger, grip, and very reliable. The FNX is the same thing with a picatinny rail which is great because the rail system on the FNP is weird.

A buddy of mine hates Glocks, says they don't fit his hand. He has a FNS-9 and its great as well. I fired it and that will be the next pistol I buy for sure. Not to mention, all pistols come with 3 magazines, thats awesome! I believe the magazines hold 17 rounds in 9mm if I'm not mistaken.

Have not fired the 40 or 45. The new compact versions look great too.

I've had my FNX-9 for a few years now, around the time they first came out. Overall great gun in terms of reliability and cycling even cheap ammo. FYI, I somewhat abused this gun a little just to "put it through its paces." Nothing extreme, but it handled it all well.

complaints:
The trigger is undeniably crap. Disclaimer, I'm a glock and 1911 guy mostly when it comes to handguns and don't have or shoot much else.
While all the amidextrous features are nice, the decocking/safety lever itself had a failure. If you're a right hander, which i am, it's not a problem because the main shaft that engages the decocking and safety is and the lever on the left side (for righties) is a single piece so it functions perfectly. The lever for the other side was simply glues or something to the shaft after it was installed on the gun.

I have an FNS-9 and a FNX-45 Tactical. Two of my favorite pistols. Highly accurate, extremely dependable. With interchangeable back-straps both fit perfect, even the FNX-45 which is a double stack 45acp. Take a box of 50 rounds and you have 4 left in your pocket with the three mags. I believe they are underrated because not as well know as a couple other Mfg's.

We have sold several of both. I personally run the FNX-9 and ran the FNX-45; both are extremely solid. Wouldn't trade it for any other brand.

I have an older FNP-45 Competition. It is one of the few guns I can honestly say I would not trade.

The main difference between the FNX and FNS.... The FNX is a traditional DA/SA hammer fired pistol. The FNS is striker fired, like a Glock.

I have an FNS-9 and I am very happy with it. It is accurate and fits my hand well. I think the rail is a little sharp and it took some time to find a holster that I liked but now I think it is easier to find good holster choices. I would recommend the FNS-9.

I have a FNX-45... love it. Mag 2x the capacity of a standard 1911 type 45

you know i die a little inside everytime i see this

The FNP-45 seems like a whole other beast. My buddy got the tactical model and even just by feel it felt like a vastly superior product to my FNX-9. The FNP-45 seems much more a of comparable/competitive model to an H&K and my FNX-9 is clearly not on that level.

Blasphemy! Haha

the 45 tactical model is very good, especially for those wanting to put a suppressor on it. comparing to hk is kind of apples and oranges its not quite as ergonomic as an hk45 tactical but not as bulky as a uspT

Don't feel bad. She went to a loving home. When my son comes home on leave, it is the first pistol he wants to shoot.

Just got the FNX 45 Tactical with Trijicon RMR,,,its very accurate. 16 rounds of .45 in your hand !

Certainly no expert, but am an FNS 9 owner. Great pistol. Accurate. Enjoyable to shoot. Absolutely no hiccup's with any type of ammo run thru it.

Simply a nice firearm.

do any of you carry the fns-9? I just bought one and it's my first handgun. A little bulky maybe?

Not too bad. FNS9c would be a better carry choice.
