I like mine. The magwell was never that flexible, but the last range trip the magazines quit dropping freely.

My FNX .45 Tac has been flawless. That was the first and last I have ever heard of a flex grip on that pistol.

I had a FNP-45 USG. Sold it for a G21. Why? Because I invested a sbit ton of cash into it and then FN backed out and stopped supporting it.
No thank you |

Did basically the same with my FNP tactical. Mine went kaboom and while at the FN for repair they discontinued the gun so it made the choice simple for me to get rid of it. Bad design and build (FNP) hence the quick discontinued and redesign into the FNX with issues of its own. |

I've got nothing but good to say about my FNX-45T. It's had no problems. Mags insert/drop fine. Magwell can't be squished past a mm. No different than any other poly gun I've owned. Have about 1k rounds through mine. Deadass accurate. Would I carry it? No. I'm not Andre the f*cking giant.
I bought mine late 2015. |

Insert a magazine and that magazine well will be plenty rigid. Try to squeeze it hard enough to keep the magazine from seating, magazine will still slide in just fine. FN built that pistol not to be overly cumbersome. It is the only double stack .45 many shooters can handle.

FN can do long guns well. Their pistols are sketchy except for anything based off the Hi-Power like the Browning BDA or the Browning BDM. I take it you have not shot/handled a recent FNS-9 then...

My PS90 is fantastic, my Hi-Powers are wonderful, and my FN-49 is a work of art. They're current pistols are just meh.  |

My FDE FNX-45 has been flawless from day 1, love this gun, even better suppressed! I've even left it in hot sun I've never had an issue with it, mags drop fine, it gives a little on the sides, but the front/back are pretty solid.

It's my favorite pistol that I own and was until the range issue my carry gun. The mag stickiness seems to be a known issue with the ambi mag release and easily fixable with a little dremel work or sending it in. I don't want to bumble fuck it so I plan on sending it. Quote HistoryQuoted:

The mags not dropping free on mine doesn't have anything to do with the mag release, the frame itself seems like it shrunk or something. Mine worked great for the first few months, then one day I pull it out of the safe and its all wonky |
