FN Herstal® FNX-40 Pistol, anybody has one?
I'm looking for any comments, pro-con on it.
I don't trust online sales reviews.

My nephew had one in .45 ACP. He really liked it. He liked it even more after it made a trip back to FN for warranty repairs. They never did say what was wrong with it, but it ran like a top when he got it back.
He's very tall and has big paws, and the FN fit him just right.

FNX-9 and FNX-40. Also have an FNS-9. I like them all. I like having an exterior hammer and safety/decocker. Both came in a hard case with 3 mags.
Haven't shot my Jericho 9mm yet, but I like the fact it's all steel, not polymer.

The price is right and having an external hammer is a big plus for me.

I have one. Nice gun but a little bulky for concealed carry. Keep in mind my hands are very large.

Thanks, mine are pretty big too and I think it takes about 13 or 15 rnds so that will make it somewhat bulky. I'm looking for something to carry around that's not too expensive and has a hammer on .40 and it also has to shoot well.

What is that round black thing that looks like R2D2..up in the top RH corner of the case?
