No one really seems to know about FN for the most part, but everything they make is top quality. I can't wait for it to get here

Which dealer? The .40 S&W is not my round of choice, but FN is a good choice. | | | |

I've owned over the years .357 Mag, 9mm, .357 Sig, and .40 S&W handguns, revolver is always going to be .357 Mag for me, of the 3 auto loader calibers I prefer .357 Sig but it is very hard on the gun.

I'm looking to pick up the FNP-45. I'm thinking I'd better hurry before prices start to skyrocket. :( | | | |

Yep on the gun sales. Get em while you can - wish I had the cash for it right now (may put up some lenses for trade soon). Got only one firearm left on the papers.
On another note. Ain't nobody gonna break into your new house Mike, and make it out unscathed. (I recommend getting a sword or two also - they never run out of ammo)

Nice weapon.
I have purchased a few new ones too.
Just a couple are the Kimber Ultra Carry .45 and the Rock River Arms LAR-9 A4 (9mm AR15) with an Eotech holographic sight.
I used to have a Browning Hi Power and it was a very nice pistol. You'll love the new pistol. | | | |
