Detailed Review
The FN 509 is a semi-automatic pistol manufactured by Fabrique National (FN) and introduced in 2017. It was designed as a duty and defensive handgun for military, security, and law enforcement personnel.
The FN 509 features a polymer frame with an ergonomic grip and interchangeable backstraps to accommodate different hand sizes and preferences. The slide is made of stainless steel and has front and rear cocking serrations for easy manipulation. The barrel is cold hammer-forged, chrome-lined, and has a recessed target crown for enhanced accuracy.
The FN 509 has a striker-fired trigger system with a short and crisp trigger pull and a positive reset. It also has a passive trigger safety and a drop safety for added security. The trigger pull weight is approximately 5.5 pounds, and the trigger travel is about 0.2 inches.
The FN 509 has a low bore axis and a four-inch barrel length, which reduces muzzle rise and improves recoil control. It also has a three-dot sight system with fixed or night sights, depending on the model. The rear sight is adjustable for windage, and the front sight is dovetailed for easy replacement.
The FN 509 has a capacity of 10 or 17 rounds, depending on the magazine used. It uses double-stack magazines and comes with two or three magazines, depending on the package. The magazines have witness holes, a textured baseplate, and a steel spring for reliable feeding and ejection.
The FN 509 has a Picatinny accessory rail under the barrel, which allows for the attachment of lights, lasers, and other tactical accessories. It also has a fully ambidextrous slide stop and magazine release, which accommodates left- and right-handed shooters.
The FN 509 is available in several variants, including the standard model, the FN 509 Tactical with threaded barrel and suppressor-height sights, and the FN 509 Compact with a shorter grip and magazine for concealed carry. It is also compatible with most holsters and aftermarket parts for customization.
The FN 509 has received critical acclaim for its reliability, accuracy, and ergonomics. It has been adopted by several law enforcement agencies, including the United States Army, Navy, and Air Force.

This is such a nice firearm, except I don't love the trigger. Accurate, comfortable to hold and shoot, runs flawlessly, they're so much good things to say that I would run out of space to put it. I simply think the trigger needs a little refining to be a
