I picked up my first FN pistol yesterday... the FNX 45 Tactical FDE. Cabelas had it in stock and on-sale. They just got the pistol in 2 days before I picked it up.
For 45, I love the 15 rounds and can't wait to get it to range in the next week. Luckily I already have an Obsidian 45. :) It will be the new bump in the night gun. |

I just put a Holosun 508t on my FNX 45 Tac tonight. Perfect size in my opinion. I really like the FNX. Trigger doesn’t feel great but I always get good results when shooting it. I shoot it suppressed with a Dead Air Ghost. The optic I took off of it was dirty from suppressed shooting. Be prepared to clean your optic often.

It's a pain to get on and especially off - the SF's don't seem to like the FN rails (or pretty much any rails) besides the Glocks, which they jump on and off of. |

No issues with mine. Several thousand rounds and the trigger is smooth like butter.

I wouldn't pay more than $50 per mag; you can occasionally find them in the $40-$45 range.
I have 22 of them, so a few dollars off adds up.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By styles: anyone got a favorite holster that includes the weapon light? Either TLR or 300? KT-Mech Duty Akela, made to order. They also have a wraparound version now. You can go basic; or go all out with fabric wrap, liner, etc... If you want a fabric they don't have or if they don't list your light they do send-ins. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By styles: anyone got a favorite holster that includes the weapon light? Either TLR or 300? So i dropped $ on my first pistol can and did it E-file for the 45. what gun did i pick? FNX 45. So i was all over for holsters. i carry full size appendix with other guns, so i hit tier 1 concealed. im slimming but more dad bod. point blank, i got a small gut. so sitting for a long time isnt a good idea for a full size. loosen the belt and bring the hulk. that said, standing.. well i have a few full size guns that i throw in the middle so im familiar with the size.. tier 1 concealed was the holster i went with for CCW with the X300. i plan on standing a lot when i put it on. |

My all time favorite firearm. I looked for years trying to find at local stores. I finally found one two years ago and it became my prized possession, lol. I got the can for this gun. Completely blown away with how quiet it is! Would recommend to anyone. Rugged Obsidian 45.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By 26120: Any one carry on concealed? I have carried both ways. All I want to say is, make sure you have your thread protector on extremely tight or take it off! When you walk, I guess, the movement eventually unscrew it. |

I just bought a BladeTech belt holster for mine. I often carry OWB under a jacket this time of year. It works fine.
Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By WhiteSplitSky: All I want to say is, make sure you have your thread protector on extremely tight or take it off! When you walk, I guess, the movement eventually unscrew it. Put a couple wraps of Teflon tape on the threads then screw the thread protector on. This works well to keep the silencer on tight as well. |

I love mine. It may soon be my only 45acp. An O-ring available at Lowe’s (Danco #41-Plumbing section) will keep the thread protector one.
I’ll try to edit this post with the ones I use when I leave this Dr appt. |
