Product Description
The FN 509 Tactical, an extension of the FN 509 family, is based on FN's
submission pistol that the U.S. Army tested for its Modular Handgun
Trials, but includes the significant improvements to the design that
were implemented in the FN 509. The pistol features the company's
patent-pending Low-Profile Optics Mounting System that enables the
platform to accept more than ten commercially-available miniature red
dot (MRD) optics that co-witness with the suppressor-height night sights
and remain adaptable to future optics releases with no requirement of
direct milling of the slide. The slide cap, for use when not shooting
with an optic, has raised sight wings that protect iron sight alignment
if the pistol is dropped or jostled, and provides a textured ramp for
racking the slide against a belt loop, pant pocket or boot. An
FN-signature 4.5-inch, cold hammer-forged, stainless-steel barrel with
target crown, ½" x 28 threads that accept the bulk of 9mm suppressors
available and thread cap with integrated O-ring to prevent loosening
during use complete the top end. Lastly, the 24-round magazines, nearly
identical in length to the pistol?s slide, maximize ammunition capacity
without impacting carry convenience.
