Again, it wasn’t weak or failure-prone, but when it comes to extraction, I want a crowbar, not something less. The replaceable backstrap, plus a view of the non-slip grip texture on the frame.įN increased the size of the extractor from the FNS to the 509. They kept the excellent replaceable backstrap, and you can change to the size you want, need or desire. I’m old-school, and if a non-slip texture isn’t aggressive enough to make me feel as if my hands will be bleeding after a rigorous practice session, then it just isn’t non-slip enough. Not that there was anything wrong with what FN had done before, but in this regard, more is better, and too much is not enough. The frame got a more aggressive non-slip texture. FN took the excellent aspects of the FNS, and improved, well, pretty much everything about it. The 509 is the evolution of the FNS, the striker-fired pistol that FN had made before it (and still produces). The 509 is the evolution of the FNS, and the 509 Tactical is the improvement on that. That is like saying a Detroit muscle car is a sedan with a big engine. We have here a striker-fired hi-cap 9mm pistol with a polymer frame, replaceable backstrap, and accessory rail on the dustcover. The base pistol is the already excellent FN 509. And by the time it was done, it had a 9mm that I, a life-long. Well, FN went and took that into consideration, and then added more. The FN 509 Tactical is particularly easy to shoot, and fun as well. Here, there are two empties in the air, the gun is closing, and it will be back on target in a blink. 9mm pistols are hot, and for good reason. We are well into the 21st century, like it or not. There is also a rising interest in red-dot sights, not just as competition items, but as EDC and tactical-use items. The world also is hot for suppressors, so if you expect to sell 9mms, you have to have at least one model that is ready to accept a suppressor. 45 fan, this is not entirely good news, but hey, life can be like that. 40 has come and gone, and the world wants 9mms all over again.
