The one major problem with the FNS is that there have never been any mags available. I have the pistol and totally love it but all i have are the three mags that came with it. Fn keeps stating that mags will be available but to no avail. I wish someone would figure this out soon as i need additional mags for compotitions. i guess i will just keep using my Glock.
I shot a standard fnp45. Loved it but i chose the usp45 simply on track record alone. Triggers seemed about the same and so did recoil and muzzle flip. Id love to have a black/ss bitone tac model. Also looking forward to handling the new fns 9 comp. In the market for a new 9mm. Iv had m&ps, p99as, and xdm. Current choices for me are the cz75, fns9 comp, sig p226 sao, and p30l or ls.
