FNP-9

[PITBULL1967]

I am going to buy my first really nice handgun next week, I was set on a glock 19 until my buddy told me about the FNP-9. I'm starting to like it, the more stuff I read the better it looks. Only thing is that everyone I know has never handled it or shot it... So I need a little help with my decision. Glock 19 or FNP-9?

I think the FNP-9 is an often overlooked gun. Mine has proven to be a very accurate and reliable firearm. I have had zero problems or failures with it. I don't get along very well with the ergonomics of a Glock.

Hello. I own and shoot both the FNP9and the Glock 19. If interested, here are some observations on the FNP9 that might be of use:

About 3 weeks ago, I purchased a FNP-9 which I had been eyeballing for months. I took it to the range and put 100 rounds through it. I have never shot a handgun so accurately in my life. I completely obliterated the black center in my first 20 rounds. I went home and put my G-19 up for sale. I sold the G-19 and purchased an FNP-357 to keep the 9 company. These are well made, straight shooting handguns. IMHO, well worth the premium price that they demand. I will have more Glocks in the future, I'm sure but for now FN Herstal is my mfg.

How is the trigger pull on the FNP9 ,the sa pull is what is most important to me . How does it compare to your other pistols ? A BIG thanks for your feed back !

 

[RevDerb]

The trigger pull in S/A is nice and smooth and consistent. As I said earlier, I REALLY like the FNP-9.

Get both.

I have one, i love it. Its the only pistol i havnt sold or gotten rid of. I have a couple thousand rounds thru mine with out one malf of any sort, and its accurate as heck too.

I couldnt see myself ever parting with it...

If I was looking for a traditional double action 9mm the FNP would be near the top of the list.

GOTTIME242 are you talking about the glock or the FNP?

Hello, 3leggeddog. While statistically invalid since it involves only one gun, I measured both the DA and SA trigger-pulls on my FNP9:

DA: 10-lbs

SA: 4-lbs

Both trigger-pulls were measured five times and both hit the same numbers each time.

Best.
