Robocop1051 Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 I was looking into a FNP-45, and I found this...Improving on the FNP-45 Tactical, developed for the U.S. Joint Combat Pistol Program, the FNX-45 Tactical is the latest in technological advancements in handgun engineering, offering 45 ACP performance and a host of unique features that no other handgun can match. The checkered polymer frame is offered in Flat Dark Earth and has a low-bore axis for reduced felt recoil and enhanced operator control. Four interchangeable backstraps come standard to quickly customize the grip feel. All operating controls are fully ambidextrous for ease of use. The 5.3" cold hammer-forged, stainless steel barrel has a threaded muzzle to accept sound suppressors, compensators and other accessories. The stainless steel slide has high-profile combat night sights and includes two mounting bases to accept multiple styles of optional red-dot electronic sights.FNX-45 TACTICALSLIDEAll stainless steel constructionExternal extractor with loaded chamber indicatorFront and rear cocking serrationsSlide cut and threaded for optional electronic red-dot sight (not included)BARRELCold hammer-forged stainless steel, threadedPolished chamber and feed ramp0.578x28 TPI with thread protector5.3” barrelFRAMERugged polymer constructionReplaceable steel railsFour interchangeable backstrap inserts with lanyard eyeletsMIL-STD 1913 accessory mounting railSerrated trigger guardFlat Dark Earth (FDE) or matte black polymerOPERATING CONTROLSFully-ambidextrous decocking/safety levers, slide stop lever and magazine releaseRing-style external hammerMAGAZINEPolished nickel coated steel body, low-friction follower with polymer base padSIGHTSEnhanced high-profile combat night sightsCaliber: 45 ACPOperation: Double-action/Single-actionTwist Rate: 1 in 16" RHBarrel Length: 5.3” with .578x28 RH barrel end thread patternWeight: 33.6 oz emptyMagazine Capacity: 15 roundsMade in the USA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt.Cross Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 I'm in love! I'm gonna need about 30 minutes with just that picture and a copious quantity of baby oil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 ROb, I wish I knew you were hot for that one - I have a really good friend here in town that has one. Retired USBP, now works in one of the local gun shops. He gets all kinds of screamin' deals, routinely. Had I known, we would have been blasting that thing when you were here. <dontknow> Next time. <thumbsup> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planeflyer21 Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 Premilled for the holosight...nice!My buddy has one back East. After looking at all the affordable polymer pistols in .45acp he went with the FNH based on magazine capacity: 15+1.Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unforgiven Posted January 1, 2013 Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 Wow ...... <thumbsup> How much? <dontknow> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robocop1051 Posted January 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2013 Wow ...... <thumbsup> How much? <dontknow>Looks like $1200 for the tactical model (above) and about $700 for the standard model (not shown). The only difference between the FNP and the FNX (that I can find) is that the FNX is compatible with a wider range of commercially available rounds.

Armed Eye Doc Posted January 4, 2013 Report Share Posted January 4, 2013 I have the FNP 45 and love it. It shoots great, feel great in the hand, and it's hard to beat the capacity. I kind of wish I had gotten the tactical or the competition (not offered in the FNX 45 afaik). I will likely never need a threaded barrel, but the ability to add a holo sight would be great.
