Robocop1051 Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 So I'm pretty dead set on a FN-H FNX .45 for my next Rosco. I just can't decide if I want the standard or the "tactical" model. Besides the threaded barrel and raised sights, I can't find any other differences between the two?????? On one side, I really like the stainless upper on the standard. On the other side I like the extra .5" barrel and MRDS mount. I already found a company that'll mill the slide for an RMR, so that part is covered. I don't think I need a threaded barrel, because I can't own a can in CA. The only benefit would be to maybe put a LWD comp on the end?? Anyone know if there are more benefits to a "Tactical" model over the standard? I've already caught wind of upgraded parts, triggers and extended mags (from +1 to x2 lengths). I'm excited for 15+1 on the hip, with 20 round reloads. That's a lot of lead!!!

washguy Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 Robo have you ever considered STI guns? We have 2 of em although in 9mm for conceal carry....they are very very well made awesome customer service....and have a lot of different models :) Wash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robocop1051 Posted September 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 (edited) I'm looking or a new duty gun. It has to be a DA/SA auto in 9, 40 or 45 (from a list of mfg's). My current Rosco is a Sig P220 Elite Stainless Carry. It's a damn good gun, but it's having issues with Win Ranger T-Series ammo. I'd also like more rounds between reloads. Having a MRDS wouldn't hurt either!!! Edited September 23, 2013 by Robocop1051 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 Anyone know if there are more benefits to a "Tactical" model over the standard? The other difference, besides the two you already listed - the Tactical is already milled for the RMR, and has a cap screwed down into place to cover the milled area.

Robocop1051 Posted September 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 Oh yeah... duh! :hunter: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imschur Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 I have the old version and it's a hell of a shooter. i have the RMR but have not installed it. I think the tactical came with an extra mag (3) and the case is nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armed Eye Doc Posted September 23, 2013 Report Share Posted September 23, 2013 I have the FNP45 not tactical. It also comes with 3 mags, but standard is 14 rds instead of 15 with the tactical. The only problem I have ever had is when it needs cleaning. If you can aim, it will put a round there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robocop1051 Posted September 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 I've seen a stainless safety lever replacement already for the FNX. There're mag extensions coming very soon. From simple +1 to SMG length. There's even rumor of a new trigger system. Wouldn't mind something like the Glock fulcrum triggers. I'm definitely going for the NiB coated RMR. Just gotta decide on which model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shibiwan Posted September 24, 2013 Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 hmm...maybe I should be considering a .45 since it seems like that's the easier round to find these days... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
