My Midsize 509 MRD should ship either tonight or tomorrow! I must say, after watching this video, I am even more excited than before! Excellent job! I absolutely love the optic system on this gun.
I just bought one. I'm really impressed with the FN. I've always been a Glock guy. But when I held this FN 509 I knew I had to have it. I've only had time to fire just a few rounds so far, but I'm already impressed. Can't wait to spend more time with it. Thanks for the review, great job describing the FN
@@JacquelynBillings I currently have around 2k rounds through it and have had no issues. The rmr mounting system makes it extremely easy to swap different sights also.
I've been a big fan of FNH for many years, and this one is no different. I have the 509 tactical but this one should be a great backup. I like the packaging of FN's new offerings, sure beats those huge suitcases they used for many years.
Jacki what's your thoughts on the blacked out sights for backup? I would think they'd be hard to see. That's the one thing I wish was different.... Wish they would've run tritiums. Still hesitant about buying one because of that. Well, that and the striker issue that's becoming prevalent across the 509 lineup.
@@Hialeah1925 my answer was buying a Springfield XDM Elite instead lol. I passed on the 509 because i was really hesitant about the striker issue. I had a hard time with FN not owning up to the obvious design flaw. The Springfield comes with blacked out sights and it's really not as bad as I thought it would be but sooner or later I'll swap them for tritiums (if they're available. I haven't checked yet)
@@LS67NOVA Thanks. Everyone is swearing by the APEX striker though. Love the elite but I could not make it work with the grip safety on account that I grip too high for me to reliably engage it.
Bass Pro and Cabellas have a nice little option to purchase the 509 with a Vortex optic included. I believe they do not include the extra plates. Not 100% sure on that. This comment was obviously sent 7 months after the first.
Jacki, when are you going to start your own channel? You're too talented to just do Gunscom vids. Ben does Gunscom vids and his own channel. Anyway, gr8 review, my flower. 🔫🌸
That gun is totally you girl you handled it like boss what state you shooting in it looks nice and warm in Oklahoma winter is trying to poke his ugly face in we already have freeze warnings
"Seriously" where do u find a woman this beautiful that loves guns and not only knows how to shoot them but knows the ins and outs of them. Good job mam and keep up the great work, we need more woman like u on youtube doing the same thing.
I randomly ran into a girl at a gun store picking up a Tavor x95, she seemed stoked about it, I think she was married though 😓 Point is, they're out there...

I purchased the 509 midsize MRD about a month ago. I really like it and it is compatible with the 509 tactical components as well. Very good review.
Thanks! It's a nice pistol for sure. You still liking it?

Yes!! Totally agree.
That's a nice FN gun.
😂
Just picked up the FN 509C tactical. Can’t wait to get this sexy gun. It will serve as my travel pistol and winter edc
Nicely done. Thanks.
So nice. Such a cool pistol.
Love the video Jacki!
Very informative video Jacki. I like the look of the 509.
Very impressive video. Thanks for a great job.
I just bought the 5:10 mrd but I'm not sure if I want to put a red dot on that with the recoil so Stout I don't think it'll stay on
...yet another Great Video Review Jacki, Thanks ';-) Mike
May be trying the full-size, MRD LE for a duty gun.
I have always wanted a Browning Hi-Power ..
I've had one for 30 years. Love it!
There's a few for sale on the Gunsdotcom site. Free shipping today.
How Does Astigmatism effect the use of a red dot??

Did you ever get your answer? Do they sell tritiums for it?

You go girl. Love the vid
Thanks!
Just got one and the threading may be bad on mine. Screws wont thread in to the slide to mount the rmr.
Good review. To the point.
Anybody know what gloves are used in the video??
Have you had any problems with the red dot coming lose after awhile? I saw one review where a guy mentioned it
Loctite
If it weren't for the hydro-lock issue, this gun would de-throne the almighty G19.
Do you bath with your gun under the water ?
I think LAPD is gonna get these as thier new service weapon.
So if I ordered this gun off a website will it come shipped with the red dot or will I have to buy it separately?
Pay attention ,stupid!

Thanks for the kind words but I have so much on my plate that these videos are about all I can handle. Maybe in the future. :)
@@JacquelynBillings I can understand that. In the mean time I'll have my fingers crossed. 🌺🏵️💐🌸
West Coast Chicano quit being creepy
@@texasghost6725 Nobody is talking to you, you stupid bitch. 😠
