Shot my FN High Power I purchased for $400 NIB have First 50 Rounds: American Ammo 180 Grain FMJ (not American Eagle) Accuracy: Very Poor, was all over the place shooting it. 6 Failure to feeds 4 Failures to set the trigger (will talk more on that later) Second 50 Rounds: Independence Ammo 180 Grain FMJ Accuracy : Superb I was getting 2 inch shot groups or better at 21 feet. 0 Failure to feed or extract 2 Failures to set trigger Now to explain failures to set trigger. What would sometimes happen is after I had shot, the trigger would not work, and wiggling it (while pointed in a safe direction) or just waiting a 5-10 seconds it would start firring again. Did not happen on last 10 rounds where I tried a new magazine. I believe this relates to that magazine disconnect "safety," and possible a bad magazine. Will email FN about it. he Remark on SFS, the "safe-fast-safety." What it is, is it makes it when you have the hammer cocked, you can press with your finger on the hammer and make it go into a resting position where it cannot fire. Once you press the safety off though it springs the hammer into a ready to fire mode. This weekend I will be testing it with hollow points. I got 100 rounds of Remington 180 Grain JHP I bought off an overrun for my local PD real cheap |

I got it from Reeds Ammunition on Gun Broker, looks like prices are up to $420 now. It was the Fabrique National Model, With the facotry mod Safe Fast Safety already on. He has one left, and it doesen't have the Walnut Stock one that I got. I think FN just makes the Standard type of HP, I don't remember ever seeing a FN Practical anywhere. http://www.usgalco.com/HolsterP3.asp?ProductID=2417&CatalogID=352 |
