Thumbs up FN Herstal 45 acp FNP

What the heck is better then this USG? Unless I'm missing something, this is #1 regardless of cost !!!! Open your mind and enter the new age . I loved 1911's untill I shot this. A wrecking ball disguised as a 45 acp. Thanks for letting me share my opinon.

I've never shot one, but I hear to hold one is to really know how awesome it is.

Thanks for sharing. If you have some pics, feel free to share them!

I have the FNP9
Gary here has the FNX40

FNH has some cutting edge products, just don't get the marketing and publicity as Glock, S&W, Springfield etc.

Worth checking out as you have discovered being open minded.

Jerry 1911

Please enjoy your 1911. But look at a FNP .45, in case you miss with your 7&1, you'll have 15 & 1 as a back-up. For 43 of my 63 years I was also on the 1911 train,then I found a younger love. Also check out Double-Tap's .45 cal ammo. 230 jhp 1010fps. and 185 at 1225fps. Both functional in both pistols. Hope you take this as a little friendly humor. Always be alert, and family and country tied for first!!!!!

I hear ya Sir. I would add a FNP-45 but not delete a 1911. My budget numbers are going to an AR at the present moment. I have heard nothing but good about the 45 though. I'm glad I have the FNP-9 for sure

When I get my permit in 6 to 8 weeks I plan on ordering one of these. I will be sure to put up pictures and range reports...I already ordered a crossbreed super tuck and 2 extra mags seeing as I got my tax return money yesterday....Now I just have to twiddle my thumbs and wait...
