Born for Combat, Refined for EDC: First Look at the New FN 509 9mm – Full Review.

We here at GunsAmerica first heard about what would become the FN 509 back in January, 2016 at SHOT Show.

Fast-forward 12 months to the 2017 SHOT Show, and FN responded with an invitation to a meeting at an undisclosed location in Las Vegas. At that meeting, we were given the opportunity to fire a few hundred rounds through the FN 509. We received our sample of the 509 a few weeks ago after promising not to discuss it publicly until April 17th, 2017.

You’re welcome.
