Gonna try one of these. As always, if Sootch and Hickok don't like it, I don't buy it. Simple as that.

FN makes some of the best pistols period. I loved my FNX 45. Might just need to pick up this little Reflex.

@MDR-hn2yz Год назад

FN definitely makes a quality firearm.

@72motochef Год назад

I've been carrying an FNS 9C for years. 12+1 and a 17+1 extended mag. 5K+ rounds through it, no issues. Better than all the new micro 9s IMO

@scottmcnamara4864 Год назад

Carried one myself for a while. It was a solid choice. Still is. Single stacks weren't very popular when the FNS 9c cake out though. All we had was the g43 or kahr. Tech is getting better .

@mattr918 Год назад

I've seen 6 fns9 handguns shot thousands and thousands of rounds with out failure. All over 10k for sure. One of which I know literally never got cleaned. They are solid guns. 4 were long slides 2 were standard full size..

@Jay-vc8vf Год назад

I have an FN 509c in fde and it's honesty the perfect iwb carry for me. Easy to shoot, full Rail. Reliable. The reflex will make a good backup pocket gun . When I first got into pistols I liked Glocks a lot...then I learned about FN, HK, Walther,. Hell even Smith & Wessons are better quality

Thanks for reviewing this firearm and thank you for all your reviews. I think i value your thoughts when it comes to handguns above all other youtubers. From your reviews i feel like i am shooting that particular handgun myself. 5 Stars. I agree with all that was said about the FN in this review. I held the Reflex and Hellcat together last month and i preferred the feel and the look of the FN. Probably the best feeling handgun my small sized hands have held....i loved the sights on the Hellcat though, they got that horse shoe sight right on.

@sootch00 Год назад

I review all guns with an open mind because everyone has different experience, hand size, hand strength, budgets and likes different small features that may or may not bother me in the least. I'm here to show you the latest and the greatest. If I don't like something, I'll send it back rather than trash it because I'm too picky. I also go through pros and cons plus compare it to similar handguns. If I only reviewed my personal preferences, it would be a short and boring video list. But, thanks for the comment Smitty

@drewschroeder6714 Год назад

I’ve been enjoying mine so far. 200 rounds no problems. The trigger is nice, almost too light for a conceal carry in my opinion though. Working on getting used to it as I’ve only owned glocks prior to this. Otherwise I have no complaints, feels really good in the hand, not too jumpy when shooting and easy to carry all day.

@danielk0106 Год назад

It's kinda scary. You can squeeze off an extra round if you're not careful because that trigger reset is all the way out and you forget that when you try to find the take up for your next shot. . Happened to me within the first 30 rounds

@ScoobyDrewski Год назад

I've been thinking about a g48. I conceal a g19 and it's getting uncomfortable cause I'm getting heavy 😂😂 so I need a smaller gun. And really like this

@danielk0106 Год назад

@drewschroeder6714 Год назад

I carry the G 48. It’s nice and I carry it well, it’s maybe a bit long for comfort if carrying appendix so i primarily carry 4 o’clock. I carry g19 and g23 in winter OWB.

@ScoobyDrewski Год назад

@drewschroeder6714 yeah I carry the g19 and the g42 appendix and the g19 owb as well in the winter. Was just hoping with the thinner profile it will be more comfortable. Just really like the idea of it being the same profile as the g19 cause the bigger grip is alot of real-estate to grab.

As much as I thoroughly enjoyed this review, I have yet to see one that mentions specifics on the internal safeties and how they work. I would love to find out more about that, especially since this pistol is supposed to be SAO.

@pewpewTN Год назад

I have one & it pretty much has the same saftey features that Glock pioneered & are now on every gun. This one being hammer fired hasn't really changed that. It has a hinged trigger & the same saftey plunger that you would expect.

Somehow I had my playback speed set to 75%. I was worried that you had a stroke! Much better at 100%

@mecenas107 11 месяцев назад

No one thus far discussed the safeties of this pistol. Factory materials state that there are "multiple and redundant" safeties. Other than the trigger safety, I could not discern any other systems. Perhaps there is a firing pin safety. This is a SAO, hammer fired gun and, absent a thumb safety, I would expect some kind of a secondary notch on the sear (like a half cock position in the 1911) preventing a discharge in the event the hammer falls without pulling the trigger (i.e. fall, or a break in the hammer sear notch). I asked the factory rep on their FB page, but no answer thus far.

@BoogaGoon 11 месяцев назад

Not to sure but I’d love to know as well! Not only that but personally I think a thumb safety would fit this little pistol perfectly👌🏼, wish they would add more thumb safety’s to cc handguns.

@@marvnation924 I found the hellcat harder to shoot, more snappy and the trigger had me pulling more rounds low left. The shield is comparable, I'd say the reflex is less snappy but not much. The trigger on the shield plus is maybe a bit better because the reset is shorter, but in defensive shooting I don't notice that anyway.

@marvnation924 Год назад
