I love mine. the best part is when you run out of ammo you can just throw it and its so balanced it will just boomerang back
Dude, would you recommend it as a first weapon? Is it worth buying? I'm looking at the Cz P10f to buy..
@@km.productions I would say you should get a Glock or something similar first. Saves you 300-400 bucks for you to invest in attachments. If your looking for a 45 get a G21 or maybe a 1911.
@@NyetNyetNyet Thanks a lot man!! I look for Cz P10f.. I like more than Glock.. I haven't decided yet.
Lol classic
Purchased this weapon system after seeing this video and a number of others- nearly a year later I am incredibly impressed and pleased with the purchase. Yes, it is pretty pricey but I couldn’t be happier.
Got mine for $800 in February 2020 right before covid hit. Tempted to sell it because I’ve gotten offers of $1200+ but I love it so much I think I’m going to just keep it.
I absolutely love this gun. I have it paired up with a Surefire 300U, a Rugged Obsidian 45 can, and an Aimpoint Acro for an unbeatable combo as my primary home defense gun.
My edc Man U gotta step it up for home defense well I guess depending on area still a great gun none the less sorry I’m horny
A fantastic combo for home defense. I do not own a suppressor (yet ;) but when I do my home defense system will be identical to yours. Bravo, sir
@@kinkubus74 my friend, you will feel very safe. ;)
That sounds sexy as hell
I was literally just looking at this pistol last night for the first time. Get out of my head.
Bryce Pridemore for the first time? Do you live in a cave?
So did you aquire one?
You think youtube doesn't know that lol
Give in. Don't fight it. Lol
Love this gun. FN makes nothing but quality. Had mine now almost two years and runs great. It’ll eat anything you put in it. This and my 5.7 are my favorite
Considering that a lot of 1911’s can cost $1200+ and not even have some of the features the FNX has, I’d say this is a pretty decent deal.
Exactly, take into account some Colts prices which is $2000+ and none of them come with the features of this gun, certainly not 15 rd capacity, it's more than worth it.
Me too! And the 1911 is very out of date.
@@Fer-De-Lancebe silent, child. The 1911 is eternal. 100 lashes for such blasphemy.
@@alastor8091 the 1911 is such a solid, die-hard design that even its predecessors that it's based off of--like the Colt 1902, 1905 military, and the 1909--are still die-hard designs.
But TwO WoRlD WaRs or whatever they say
Have owned this exact pistol / Vortex package for some time. 15+1 Speer G2 230 gr. hp. +P, AWESOMENESS UNLEASHED!
I remember seeing one of these in a gun store in San Antonio about a decade ago (plus or minus). I remember thinking that they were solving problems I haven't even thought of yet! Glad to see them growing in popularity.
I’m in San Antonio lol
The FNX 45 is in my mind and won’t leave!
I'll take you're word for it! You're the reason I got the CZ P-07 and i love it!
I never thought I'd see the day this video was uploaded! Great video, brother. Thanks for the review!
I have the FNX 45 (non-tactical). I found it gave me everything I was looking for in a .45 (dependable, high quality, smooth shooter and 3- high cap 15rd mags, grip adjustment), plus more (double action trigger and a decocker). It's a soft shooting .45. Loads of fun to shoot. Thanks for the video.
I have the tactical, but I have to say the standard version is a gorgeous weapon.
I have the FNX standard. The cocked and locked feature was the clincher. I have small hands and can barely reach the trigger but pretty close to a 1911 when cocked and locked. The single action is pretty decent. Not quite like my Ed Brown but decent enough to be better than some cheaper 1911s. Stainless slide with anti corrosion finish and thermo polymer frame makes it impervious to weather. 15 rounds of .45 ACP is hard to argue against. With my FN SCAR 17, they are my SHTF load out. The FNX is also my first choice for sidearm duty when going out in the woods as i don't worry about rain, mist, weather. Just a beast and bad medicine for predatory animals, especially 2 legged ones.
I had one of the non-Tacticals and loved everything about it, except the flexible polymer in the grip. It's didn't instill the same confidence that my USP 45 Tactical, but it was a softer shooter than the FNX9 and was stupid accurate. It is highly underrated and makes a better combat platform than a G21.
I have the exact same setup but mine is chambered in 460 Rowland. Absolute sledgehammer!
Pretty much the sexiest, durable, accurate, light, tactical and powerful 45acp in the industry right now.
@Nicholas Rodriguez ...1911 sexier? ROFL! Powerful as in shooting a powerful round.
@Nicholas Rodriguez ...they still want $1200 plus tax for it. A lot of saving to do...
@Nikko Puga NICE...that's over $2000. Too rich for my blood.
I love BOTH my FNX 45 Tacticals. I have in black and FDE, both with a Trigicon RMR, and Streamlight TLR-2 HL G.
I conceal carry it in the AIWB position, every day, everywhere, year round, without ANY problem with either comfort OR concealability.
“Some of these come with 10 round magazine, depending on your state.”
That is so f...n sick, 5 rounds that make it dangerous....
Hel Li THEY REVERSED THE BAN!
Cali bois are free
CT unfortunately has not. 10 rounds til the end of time in this garbage state
Keane “Cali bois are free” 😂😂😂 ohhh that’s a knee slapper!
@@mrpibb7781 I have no idea how CT doesn't overturn it when Cali did.....
That’s what voting Democrat will get you.
I have the standard FNX-45 and I love it. That’s a perfect suppression host.
THANK YOU AS ALWAYS!!! I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!! FINALLY....someone actually covered the firearm that the US Military should have gone to over the Sig...
Maybe...but how many Sigs did they get for the price of just one fnx tactical
@@thisSiteSucksHard Doesn't have to be the "tactical" model. The same models without the threaded barrel and optics mount are less than 550.
R Sjr
True but they paid just over $210 for each Sig for the Army so I’m sure FN couldn’t compete with that low of a price per unit. FN probably didn’t care since the sell ‘em most their FN barrels anyhow.
Love my 320’s and my FNS is pretty good too but trigger could be better.
@@thisSiteSucksHard The military doesn't consider cost as much of a factor as you may think to make a decision on their firearm choice. They actually never have. The defense budget is second to none and always has been. Maybe in local entities such a Law Enforcement for Cities Counties and States cost would be a much greater factor but not so much in the Military.
Just picked one up and it is awesome firepower to have 15+1 in .45. Bought a FN509 tactical 9mm first and sold it shortly thereafter. Ergos were great on it but it jammed multiple times in the first 200 rounds through it. For that kind of money and for the fact that I was going to carry it, I couldn’t trust it. The FNX 45 tactical has been 100% reliable thus far. Glad I purchased
I own an FNP-45(the non socom variant) and I absolutely love it, it is the flattest shooting 45 I've ever shot, tbh 15 rounds of 45 was my original selling point, but goddamn if I didnt get waaaay more than I bargained for and I love it
The FN Tactical started out with the P series. They changed a few options but the main setup was basically the same with the X. Love my FNs.
fns is stricker fired while fnx is hammer…..
This is one of my favorite guns by far
I just picked one up, new in box, off gunbroker for $827! I’ve been wanting one since they were 1st released and I’m so stoked to finally have one!
Adam Clark congrats brother, I ought to call the cops on you because you stole that gun lol jk I can’t find them less then 1200 where I live.
Where was this from??
That's one bad ass gun. This is what the Army should have chosen over the Sig M17.
spicecrop it’s not modular. Army wanted a modular pistol.
They are not going back to .45.
If you are still on the fence about this pistol. Get off and pick one up. It’s smooth as butter and very accurate. My only problem with it is that 45 ACP is expensive right now
I'm seriously considering this weapon. I inherited an obscene quantity of 45 acp ammo and reloading components and I don't currently shoot. 45. My choices are limited to, the venerable 1911 in one form or another but having spent years shooting my 9mm right beside the man who bequeathed me all the. 45 ammo, I've come to see the 1911 as a beautiful but finicky Firearm that requires the constant attention of someone with Armorer lever skills to keep it in top form. Your mileage may vary, but Ed was not the only. 45 pistol Smith I know and their experience was similar. I really don't much care for the looks of the HK and I (heretic advisory warning!!!!!) won't buy another Glock so this FN, with all of its attributes, starts to look like the top contender for a full sized drop leg holstered combat handgun. Hell, it's even be good enough for LARP'ing around my mothers basement, (if she had one), while watching airsoft tournaments.
Seriously though, every review is much the same for this weapon. HOLY SHIT, 15 rounds of. 45 cal, double stacked yumminess in an attractive, if somewhat heavy, RMR/Weaponlight/Suppressor ready package that looks dead sexy to boot!
Yeah, I guess I know how ill be stimulating the local economy real soon.
Hope to see you at the range.
I have one. It’s excellent in every way. Hold two more rounds than my G21.
My favorite pistol of all time
This was a joint operations prototype that should have been the EDC for the Marines but got beaten out by a cheaper sig saur that looks very similar. Minus all the extended barrel and amazing looks/ bells and whistles.. I dont care what pistol you think is your favorite... if you hold one of these and try it out you will fall in love with this FNX45acp
Not a single jam you say? Yep. 1000 rounds and never had a single jam. By best friend swears by Brazilian Taurus's and that thing jams every other mag.
I’ve shot a couple of these over the years and always appreciated the quality. I’m not a DA/SA guy or I would have picked one up.
Bought it a year ago. Phenomenal weapon. But then again it’s FN
Love it! One of my favorite pistols for sure. Low recoil & feature rich. What’s not to like about the FNX-45 Tactical?
Beautiful pistol man! And with 15 rds of .45 on tap, damn! I think I want this over another 1911, except just the stock FNX-45 version.
i absolutely love mine ! i started off looking at 1911's as a .45acp suppressor host for my rugged obsidian but by the time you added a threaded barrel and suppressor sights the price points where getting very close . the 15 +1 also helped and the fact that you can manipulate the slide to charge/clear the weapon with the safety on is a big plus over other platforms as well . now add to that its a very accurate .45 . with my trijicon dual illuminated i have no problem hitting a 2/3 steel silhouette at 100m ( 8 out of 10 shots most of the time ) and it runs so well suppressed .
it is my favorite .45 !
I love mine. I got rid of all my 1911's after two range trips and got the non tactical with the trade in with then brough fnp 45 tactical after cause I got a deal on it. So I have three versions of it.
Hah, I like the FNX do much I have two. The original black and the battleship grey and black.
I love my Battle Grey one!
Holy hell there's a battleship grey one? I think my black one found a friend.
@@derrick2552 if your looking for a deal mine's still available. Available to ship from my ffl.
The first time I ever held one that old saying came to mind " It felt like a 2x4 " . But a real comfortable one ! : )
Well, went today to get a new Tac-45. Turned out the store had a used one, black for 200 less. Was hesitant but eventually went with the used one. Had 6 FTE while trying it out. Turned out the thing was completely dried out whiter than bone. Went home, cleaned and lubed it up good! Should solve that problem!
I got one in black and it is awesome. Highly recommend.
Was high on my bucket list....FNX-45 Tactical, Beretta M9A3, Colt M45A1 Marine CQPB and going after my Colt King Cobra Target 4.25" SS tomorrow.
I've never handled one but I just love the lines and look of it
You can get these under $1000 now. Fn runs a deal usually once a year where if you buy one you get a streamlight tlr 1 and vortex venom sight for $1100 something. They did the last 2 years at least. I saw with a light only this year so far. We’ll see black Friday.
I love mine like the first 200 rounds I had to failure to feed and one to extract. After that no problems. I think the mag springs were a bit stiff.
Great gun itsworth the 1500 including viper.. Venom. Love mine. It's a keeper
FNH makes top quality firearms. These FNX-45 TAC models can be found BNIB for a little under $900 these days. Just have to hunt. Found one for $829 + shipping and got in on the vortex rebate. Same setup as your video for $859.
Where was that from?
With the 18 round extended magazine that's the perfect house gun in my opinion. Might get one & put a can on it when my budget allows. My house gun now is a SIG P250 10+1 45 acp.
What's funny about this too me is the FN FNX is all but ignored in the gun world but put a threaded barrel, rmr cut and suppressor sights on it and suddenly it is the best thing ever.
I love mine too! Very reliable, cool battle tank! Thanks for video!
Thanks for the review! Just picked up one a month ago and I'm waiting on the Trijicon RMR Type II I just ordered to come in before hitting the range with it.
FN just released the FN 545 Tactical that is similarly chambered in .45 ACP, 1x15 Rds & 1x18+1 Rds offering. This is striker fired, probably a mirror of the 509 Tactical but in .45mm. It would be great to see a spec comparison of the new model vs the FNX-45 TAC.
“.45mm”
Theres also another version that has a standard barrel, no optic, and standard sights for around 750-800.
Food for the thought
Had mine for over a year and only jammed on me once in over 1k shots but I think the casing was jacked up
I have a black version that i bought from my local gun range. It was one of their rentals and I picked it up for $986.00
I bought one of these in 2010, and just didn’t love it, as the ergonomics didn’t suit me. But I love this channel, so I watched the entire video anyway!
Gorgeous pistol.
I've been eyeballing it at my Bass Pro shop. Just have to find some .45 rounds first.
Really Enjoy Mine, Noting like 16 rounds of 230g Of Hate! Carry on
I want this gun...trying to put together a couple things to trade for one. One of the Best 45 tactical pistols on the market imo.
FYI, magazines from the older FNP-45 work flawlessly in the FNX-45 and visa versa!!!
Sample size of more than 25 FNP-45s and more than 50 FNX-45s.
They are awesome 460 Roland conversions!!! I have 2 FNX-45 Tacs so converted going on 4000+ rnds.
Hmmmmm? The P40 and X40 mags are not interchangeable. The mag lockups are not the same. I would think the 45 would be the same?
@@clintwaugh5323 I do not know about those. The FNP-45/FNX-45 magazines interchange and work perfectly.
Great weapon. I had a regular FNX45 for years. It had a major issue at first, but FN repaired it. Only thing I would like to see is it have a metal trigger like the CZ P09 & 07.
I love this pistol. It's by far the smoothest and softest 45 ACP I've ever shot, so nice to take to the range and it just handles so well that it's really hard to beat. The form factor is a bit large but it's not designed to be a concealed carry option, I keep mine in my laptop bag as a back up to my EDC along with 5 magazines full of underwood, should be able to handle anything that comes along I would think. Excellent pistol and great review as always Chris.
Looks like a sweet combat pistol
A very underrated pistol, and quite as a wet fart when suppressed. 🤘
😂😂😂😂😂
Underrated? This gun is loved by everyone that ever owned one lol
One HOT Pistol. FN nailed this one.
I don't use a red dot on mine because with the Raised triggagon hard sites it really is redundant I use the lower picatinny rail on the bottom and have a green laser sight from insta spark made from black aircraft aluminum and the tip of the laser has the same checkering that the thread guard on the extended barrel has well and it matches perfect.. people ask if it's a custom setup all the time.. when you can buy a handgun off the shelf that looks like it has $1,000 worth of custom upgrades on it but doesn't that's when you know you got a winner.. and yes this pistol was so ahead of its time that even today it outperforms and has more bells and whistles and features than a lot of brand new guns have you almost can't make a better pistol then this
If there was ever a zombie apocalypse this is the first weapon I would pick to use
Honestly I'd probably grab my ruger charger with drum mag. 22lr rounds should bounce around in that 🧠
@@benfrank1583 no that’s a myth.
I love this gun, and want one as a suppressor host. I wish FN would make a 10mm version. 17 rounds of 10mm would blow the 10mm competition out of the water.
FN 510 has entered has entered the chat
@@spookyindeed I know, I'm excited. It wasn't rumored when I made the comment. That being said, I wish it were da/sa.
I know this is an older video, but I have the FNX and absolutely love it. Glad you like it to
NIch? I have one with a holosum greendot and I love it Very accurate. If you miss, you missed the gun hit where you were aiming. I love it
I have been wanting one of these... Waiting for a decent price.
FN is absolutely one of the best firearms companies.
Dont own any yet due to cost but I will find Santa.
Love my FNX 45 tactical.I wonder if FN will update a new version of its 45acp brother with its new optic system...
What's not to love. Threaded barrel ,frame safety decocker,double stack 45 with rail and rmr sights. Price though. That's hefty for a carry gun
Nice video. I'm looking at the same gun right now. Been comparing different guns, and this one seams to fit the bill. The one I'm looking at actually comes with the Vortex on it, sort of ready to rock.
Did you like it more than the FN 509 tactical 9mm?
My favorite gun I own. Better than my Beretta PX 4 Storm and FNS 40C.
I only own 380 or 9mm caliber firearms but if I was to get a 45acp pistol, this is the one for me!
$999 with vortex venom on psa as of today. Had to order at that price! Only complaint is I wonder if the 6 moa dot is too big.
let us know how you like the 6moa dot.
@@trullmann I really like it! Doesnt appear near as large as I thought. Was smacking a steel silhouette at 75 yards. Gun is crazy accurate.
@@trailertrashtactics
Nice! Thanks for the reply. I might pick one up.
Todd Ullmann you get one yet? :D
Hey Outlaw, looking for the perfect home defense tool, would you pick this over the 545-t with the 18+1 mags? I’m a hammer fired fan, but those larger capacity mags are making me second guess myself.
Might trade my G19x for it or my lumber micro 9. And pay the rest in cash. Definitely seems like the perfect hand gun for target
Thank you for another great video. I have the non tactical model i am older a bit set in my ways dont use opticals or flashlights. The gun is on the big side but it is not obtrusive comfotable in iwb holster. I like ie better than glock 21.
What is your selection on pistol red dot's MOA? I have a G19 MOS with a Vortex Venom and run 6 MOA. I only use it as a CCW piece and I felt the larger dot would help a bit more with 3-20 foot shots but I have seen a lot of people run 3 MOA
Love your stuff. Here’s the thing I’m planning on buying the Steyr MF 9mm coming out this year. Do you plan on doing a review when it comes out. I own a HK VP9 and seems to have some similarities I like.
I used to drool over this gun but I have moved on and now my sights are set on the FN 509 Tactical.
I was in a toss up 2 weeks ago over those. Decided on the fnx. Great price (a little over 9 plus shipping) and i've wanted it for years. Plus the 3 free mag offer going right now. Used the money i saved to buy a holosun 507c for it. BUTTTTT, The 509 tactical still whispers my name on quiet nights!😂😂😂 and sunny days, and days that are days, and nights that are dark...well, you get the picture!
bigboy40cal I too share your pain.
I have the FNX45 non tactical version, great nightstand companion
What are in your opinion the top 3 polymer 45’s?
Great gun, great review! Quick question, what is the difference between the FNP, and the FNX? I have the FNP and it seems identical in every aspect. Thanks!
Random question... just picked up a brand new FNX .45 tactical and the locking block is slightly loose.. anyone seen this before...?
The raised sights are for use with a suppressor.
So what is your favorite .9 .mm and .45 MM?
Might be getting one of these converted to 460 Rowland. 15+1 rounds of 44 magnum power kicks ass
I had mine done, use it for backpacking. Only downside is that it only likes some 460 ammo. Failure to feed consistently with the wrong type, but 100% with the right stuff.
I love mine too. It's my Conceal carry weapon, I carry it in a shoulder holster and it's pretty awesome. How or why the Military turned it down for issue to the troops is beyond me?
I've always loved FN's The FNX and FNS are my favorites. Great guns
The one I own was assembled in Columbia, NC
I wonder would the FNX9 have the same drawbacks or would the slight size difference between the FNX45 and the FNX9 help any? Came across an FNX9 for 450 so couldn’t resist picking it up. Will be interesting to take it to the range and see how it holds up
Have you reviewed fn545. Thanks for the awesome reviews
Looks like a great gun
They need to make a striker fired no safety modernized version called the 545 tactical or somethin I'd buy then, I have the 509T & love it
