FN herstal

All ribbing aside- there's one for sale on ColoG in the Greeley area for $400. Regardless of anything else, that would appear to me to be a screaming deal.

Whoah wait up a second.....



YOU'RE BUYING A 9MM?!
And considering it for carry duty?!!!
But 9mm is too small to do be effective! Shoulda held out for a .45 that can drop a man in one hit.

Never said I was going to carry it, and they also make a 40 and 45 those are what I heard are going to be Police carry guns, I just wanted to know if anyone had any info on this gun, If you dont then why bother posting anything. Thanks for your time.

yeah my FN rocked. accurate , good trigger. Down side is not to many folks are real familiar with them so they do not fetch a decent resale price. Value wise they usually run $4-450 used with 2 mags, holster and mfg box it came in. Night sights add $50.

Thanks for your input that is what I wanted to hear, I just want something different never owned anything from them so I will try this out, if I like it I am going to get the 40 and 45.

I have experience with the .40 version but I imagine my comments will apply. The good points are that it has a good trigger, it's really light which is awesome if you're going to carry it at all, and the trigger bar is on both sides of the frame making for some good strength and response. We got it at the range I used to work at as a rental and it withstood the test of the common public. I put a lot of faith in that.

Now the down sides. The lightness makes for a lot of recoil shooting it and the controls were constantly getting my way. The decocker was especially annoying. Others did not have that problem so I guess it depends on your grip. I'm not sure how available parts are because I haven't looked. That is a factor for me when picking a new gun but a lot of people don't seem to think about it.

So there's my two cents. It's a pretty good gun but try holding it first.

What about the other 2 the one on arms list comes with a IWB leather holster and mag holder for 400, and there is that one on colorado gun market.

I figger it's a screamer anytime you're getting a modern combat pistol in pretty much new condition, in the box with hi-caps, for $400. I also figgered that the one on ColoG was also being marketed by Mr. Burns, as it's kind of odd to have 2 of the same guns listed at the same price at the same time on 2 diff forums.
