FNH/FNS ...
« on: December 28, 2012, 03:43:42 PM »
I picked it up today and I like it!, never even handled one before I ordered it but it would seemed to fulfill many of the 'wants' I had.
Firstly, apart from the take down latch, it's fully ambidextrous which is handy in our household as my wife is totally wrong handed and I'm virtually useless with my left as far as hand/eye co-ordination is concerned.

Secondly I've been a .40 fan for a while (sorry MB!), have a trunkload of such ammo and full size & compact pistols in that cal., but the missus recently bought a CM9 and we had no full capacity 9mm in the house.





A quick 10 rounds at 10 yards in the back yard after I got it home seems to indicate it'll shoot OK!




I had some concerns about the trigger before I shot it as my full sized Glock has a 3.5lb. transfer bar fitted but this seems to shoot just as smoothly and doesn't pull to one side as I sometimes do with the G. when in a hurry.

Nice... and I like that they have replaceable rails.  Did it come with 3 mags?  I've been considering a FNX-9 for a while now.

Hope you really enjoy it!

Thanks, and yes it came with 3 x 17rd. mags and 2 backstraps, almost everything else we carry is striker fired so it made sense for us to go with the FNS.

Congrats Bic!!! I have the predecessor FNP-9 and find it uber reliable after almost 5 years of ownership. Bought it Nov. 9th 2008 after the first BHO election. (Gee my concerns had merit?) ???



I too am "wrong handed"  ::)  but do really enjoy everything about this pistol.

Good call!!!!
