FN FNS-9

FN Striker-Fired 9mm

The FN FNS-9 is a striker-fired 9x19mm pistol built by FN, the company behind a long line of military and police small arms. It suits shooters who want a duty-style handgun for home defense, range work or carry, with simple controls and a grip made to stay put in the hand. The design centers on a polymer frame and a black steel slide with no external hammer to manage.

Features

• 9x19mm Chambering — Fires 9x19mm, also sold as 9mm Luger or 9mm Parabellum, one of the most widely available handgun cartridges.
• Striker-Fired Action — A spring-loaded striker fires the cartridge in place of a hammer, so every trigger pull feels the same from the first shot to the last.
• Polymer Frame — The frame is molded polymer, which keeps the pistol lighter than an all-steel gun and resists corrosion.
• Front And Rear Slide Serrations — Grooves cut at both ends of the slide give you purchase for racking it or doing a press check from either position.
• Accessory Rail — A rail molded under the front of the frame takes a weapon light or laser.
• Textured Grip — Aggressive texturing on the grip panels and front strap helps you hold onto the pistol under recoil or with wet hands.
• Fixed Front And Rear Sights — Low-profile sights sit at each end of the slide for a clear sight picture.
• Black Finish — Slide and frame are both black, a plain, low-glare look that works for duty or carry.

Build and Compatibility

The FNS-9 pairs a polymer frame with a steel slide, and the trigger guard is undercut so your hand rides high for better recoil control. The frame rail takes standard rail-mount lights and lasers. Because it is chambered in 9x19mm, ammunition is easy to find in practice, defensive and training loads.
