I noticed you said no safety. There is actually a safety while the hammer is cocked the hammer realese will flip in the up ward direction an when the trigger is pulled the hammer stays put. Not sure if you already know. But just so other viewers know. Great review and yes too bad not much choice for accessories but thats what happens when a company is focused mainly toward military fabrication.
@truthplayer1 There are two versions of this pistol. The standard has a decocker only. The USG version has a decocker/safety that allows you to carry it cocked & locked (condition one). If he has the standard version, which it appears he does, then he doesn't have the capability to carry it in condition one. The USG also has front slide serrations.
With regards to guns going off when dropped, it can not happen on pistols equipped with a firing pin block no matter how light the trigger is. All modern pistols (Glock, XD, CZs, M&Ps, Sig, FNH etc.) come with a firing pin block except for a few rare exceptions like the SP-01 Shadow.
In the US you can legally buy a handgun as long as you are over 18 years old and it is a PRIVATE transaction. To buy from a licensed dealer (FFL) you need to be over 21. Another brilliant example of governement over-regulation and stupidity.
great video in your last video about the blackhawk serpia holster you told us that that was your ex's just checking lol this gun is awesome i have the same one that you have
Awesome review. I fired this weapon for the first time yesterday but have been researching them for months. It was so comfortable in my hands, I loved it.
Really? That may be from the holiday season coming up.. That is what I'm going to wait for and I'm going to buy a few rifles. I'm only 19 so I can't buy a hand gun yet.
I have a question for you: Why is the minimum age for rifles 18 but for handguns it is 21? Wouldn't it make more sense to either (A) have them both at the same age or (B) be the other way around? (Rifles are generally deemed more powerful than handguns)
Well rifles are usually for hunting. But a handgun is usually for self defense and concealable making them more dangerous. You can also buy a shotgun when you are 18.
@SPeacock I understand the thought, but a rifle is considered to be more for hunting. Even with assault rifles though, they're hard to conceal. handguns you can stick in your waistband.
I really enjoy shooting my FNP-45. Its got great features and it feels more like your shooting a 9mm. It is hard to find a holster for it still, but I am currently using a leather holster for an XD-40, and it works pretty good.
@gunnut3345 Ruger p95 is acool gun.. guide rod and spring assembly fails pretty quick but ruger custumer support is great and they will send u one right away.. also the ruger is much more heavy and bulky.. so those are things 2 consider
@a2birdcage yeah they are bricks.. not a bad gun for the Money though.. you can pick up a used one for about 200.. I used to own one but I couldn't get used to it..
I own one of these and I use a Serpa made for a SW M&P 9/40. Fits perfectly AS LONG AS THE PLASTIC SPRING IS REMOVED (done by unscrewing the retention screw) . If not, it locks the gun at the accessory rail and the holster has to be taken apart for pistol to be removed. Gun shop would not appreciate that.
Other holster I use is the leather Blackhawk CQC concealment size 08 for Ruger85-94. Tight at first but wears in quick and thumb break can snap over hammer.
I just purchased this gun without firing it but after thoroughly researching it for months, I absolutely LOVE it. Put 500 rounds through it the same day I got it! I compared it against the Springfield XD - XDM, S&W M&P, Sig 229, and only the Sig felt a bit better than the FNP. However, the Sig is in a different ballpark in terms of it being a metal frame and in price.... My .02
how 's the reliability so far , i am thinking about getting a sig but they are heavy and i might get a fnp 9 ? how's the decocker? why it drops so fast and heavy?
Thanks a lot. Thanks for the vid's. I like how you reply to everyones comment too, cool dude! haha. Along with the cleaning video, this is probably obvious, but would appreciate the lubrication needs of it also. Thanks man! :-) (you dont have to reply, LoL)
i wood not mind geting an XD .45 i gave one as a gift to the girl i was dating and she love how it shoot it was great weapon system i use to carry it some times LOL
This gun is DEF gonna be my 2nd gun too. It was gonna be my first gun but I had to leave the gun shop due to time constraints and went back the next day and it was SOLD! I then also bought the XD they still had. XD feels great too tho, just different.
How concealable is that gun? How much did you pay for it? Did you buy it online or did you go to a store and if you bought it online what was the website. Thanks
i think it is because its not an over whelming gun
like Smith and Wesson M&P 9/9mm or the XD-9/40 ther both all so good guns but for smaller hands their some what to big but the FNP-9 all some come in a smaller version call the FNP-9m if you have smaller hands all ways get a compact version of any gun that you prefer its better that way but that is just my opinion
I've had the FNP-9 for 2 years now, and everything you say about it is dead on. Love it's dependability and simplicity. Makes for a very good first time shooter gun, as well.
1:10 - 1:20 thats because u have bear strangling hands!!! lol my friend got 1 in 9mm for 260 used(all 3 mags mint)!!! i like the 16+1 capacity,and the flat vertical grips... for some reason it reminds me of a tt33(the feel/balance)
Great Review! If you dont mind me asking, how much did you pay for yours, and does it have the night sights? I found one at a local gunshop, all black, used, with normal fixed sights for $499. I felt this was to high. What should I offer?
hey bud! i appreciate the review on the holset for the FNP you did, i bought one as well, its on back order so still waiting for it. i posted a video of me firing my FNP 9, its an awesome gun!
