FN America is expanding on its 5-series of duty guns with the new pocket-sized FN 503 for backup and concealed carry. Drawing from the FNS and FN 509, the FN 503 is a slim, snag-free handgun chambered for 9mm Luger. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Like its predecessors, the FN 503 is striker-fired and has a polymer frame, but it’s contoured for everyday carry. The pistol has a 6+1-round capacity with flush magazines and holds 8+1 with extended mags. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Compared to some of the higher-end FN pistols the 503 is a minimalist design, with no accessory rail, low-profile 3-dot sights and very simple controls. The trigger has a more conventional passive blade safety, and the reversible magazine button is recessed to minimize the risk of releasing the magazine while holstered. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The slide release is on the left side and the slide has straight serrations at the rear only. Overall it measures in at just under 6 inches long, 4.6 inches tall and 1.1 inches at its widest. The 503 has a 3-inch barrel with a recessed target crown. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The FN 503 weighs in at 21 ounces unloaded which is light enough to carry all day but not too light to make it uncomfortable to handle and shoot quickly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The front and rear of the frame have molded checkering while the sides have a grip texture patterned off skateboard grip tape. The end result is a purpose-built concealed carry handgun made to be as compact as possible yet still shootable with 9mm defensive loads. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

While the 503 has an updated, all-metal trigger, the pull is set to be the same as other striker-fired FN pistols with a pull weight between 5 and 7 pounds. Each 503 ships with one 6-round magazine with a pinky extender and one 8-round magazine with grip sleeve. They come with a soft-sided zippered carry case and have a competitively low suggested price of $549. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

FN pistols typically sell closer to their listed MSRP especially when they’re new, but the FN 503 is still priced in line with other new single-stack pistols based on full-size service pistol designs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For anyone looking for a slim and light 9mm handgun for everyday carry the FN 503 is appealing and has a strong pedigree. For existing FN owners, especially FN 509 owners, the FN 503 may be a must buy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
