    I work for an FFL and we have had two Reflexs come back with cracked frames. Both cracks starting from left of center on the rear of the frame right under the slide and going down the left side of the pistol about 1/3 of the way down. In both cases FN blames remanufactured or reloaded ammunition which of course isn't covered by their warranty but offered the customer a replacement price for a new one for around $380.
    Frankly on any other pistol I would think that FN was in the right but I'm one retailer and I've seen two which is like getting struck by lightning while getting eaten by a shark.

      @nickm8940 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

      @@cesarebeccaria7641 Yes. Yes it is. I'm kind of in the boat that feels it shouldn't matter though. I'm certainly not an expert but my understanding is that proofing is going to put a cartridge through that gun at 30-40% over industry standard pressure. +P is going to generate anywhere from 10-20% more pressure than a standard load. Which means that even if the gun wasn't rated for +P it should handle multiple firings. Do I need to say 'Don't do that under any circumstances'? But the point remains. It IS rated for +P and the frame cracked. It's either the polymer or a bad batch of springs that aren't slowing the slide enough before it runs out of travel. Regardless...two of them? In exactly the same way?

    Several years ago, you made a video of the FNX45 and out of everyone reviewing that firearm...you seemed to have that good ole country truth about how you felt about shooting it. So I jumped on purchasing one. It has been the best firearm (pistol) that I have ever owned. I later bought an FN45, and I'm looking at a 509C now, but now I am thinking perhaps this Reflex might be the ankle pistol I am looking for. I appreciate your reviews, I always thought watching you was like watching a relative or a great friend shooting some guns, sharing what you like...and I like that about you, so I have always respected your reviews.

    Used to really be a fan of FN pistols. They were my primary pistols and I had quite a few. Sold them off over the years and moved to a more common platform with parts that were more common. These days for carry, the P365XL is my promary. The FN looks like a great option, but FN drops pistol models often it seems and then they are not supported anymore. Not sure how long the reflex will be around.

    I carried a P365 for over a year with a 12 round magazine and found it the perfect IWB EDC. On a whim, I bought a WC 365XL grip and I re-fell in love with the gun. About a year after that,, I started missing having an optic, because there was no cut for it. I was floating around my local gun store and saw a new P365XL cut for optics and the ability to co-witness, so I plunked down my money, took it home, put the slide and barrel on my WCXLG, which has an Armory Trigger and spring kit, and added a Holosun 407K green dot, and it was a revelation. The gun is absolutely amazing with the extra 1/2" barrel and the Holosun almost feels like cheating, it's so easy and quick to sight. I can't imagine a better, more reliable, accurate setup in a compact. The Armory trigger and spring kit are much smoother with less creep and a shorter reset than the stock XL, although, surprisingly, the XL was about 1/2 a pound lighter. If I had to recommend a carry gun, my setup is Nirvana, and I feel blessed and confident it's in my waistband.

    Both are good choices...I have owned an FN 503 for several years that's excellent. However both of these and my FN are still too big for pocket carry in jeans( smaller pockets than cargo pockets that any of these can be carried); the best pistol for me for extraction from pocket carry of jeans is the old Berretta Nano which has edges smoother than butter, extremely accurate and has always shot after 1000's of rounds with 124 grain or above( all the notorious functions issues of FTE/FF are from using 115 grain); trigger isn't the best but it doesn't affect accuracy with practice. IWB carry I go to Springfield Model 2 3.3 .45.

    I’ve been shooting Underwood/LAX Ammo for a little over a year now. I’ve bought their New and Reloaded in 115gr FMJ and 147 in the Hollow Point non carry/ target shooting rounds. They are far more reliable and cheaper than buying the 100rd white box Winchester. I’ve never had a firing or feeding issue, no jams at all. Also they are just as accurate for me as the Hollow Point carry ammo that I use, which is Hornaday Critical Defense 115gr and 147gr.
    TLDR Underwood Ammo is good stuff.

Carried the Nano's for years. Over 18k through one of them. Also the mildest shooting of all. Beretta continued to improve the Nano all along the way. A serious built gun. I may get the Flex. Looks good from the Pictures, but would have to shoot one first.

With your large hands, you would truly appreciate the trigger on the Tisas PX-9. Request one from Buds and see what I mean. My absolute favorite trigger of all time. Trigger action is all out front. Wall is very close. Be careful the first time in the guard. I gave up my Springfield XDM-Elite for the Tisas PX-9.

    Your pocket holster fit demonstration is the best illustration comparison between the two pistols I’ve seen yet. In other reviews, the Reflex seemed to appear wider - more like a Glock 26. The P365 pretty much IS my carry rotation. Size and how it carries in the pocket as well as its slim width are the primary features past reliability and accuracy. I have not handled the FN though now I may have to start looking into it. The FN looks to be about the same length as a Glock 43. The Sig has a lot of available accessories and upgrades, while pricy, are available without having to look too hard - not as easy as finding stuff for a Glock 19, however. Depending on how new and how much anticipated popularity there would be for the FN, how available are holsters and extra mags? Sig mags are expensive. Don’t know how bad FN mags are in comparison. Glock mags can still be found at half the cost of Sig mags. When I bought my P365, I noticed the pistol and mags were coated with some sticky gunk. I cleaned it all off before taking it to the range and only had a couple of hiccups in the first couple of magazines. I’ve heard of other P365 reviews where the gun went straight to the range and there were issues. Anyway, I may look for a Reflex at the rental counter at my local range next time I go to shoot.

  • @LarryGanz

    I've been happy with my P365 for the past 5 years for concealed carry (with the added Lima laser, lightning strike firing pin, and added manual safety in case I have to leave it out of my holster in the car). It's works well for pocket carry, replacing my Kahr PM9. I later added the ZEV Z365 Octane with Holosun HS407K reflex sight + Foxtrot 365 light, and 12 round mags to add to my other guns for home defense. They've been very reliable and dependable for me. I do have an FN FNS-9 that is very nice, but I haven't accessorized it nor my G19 or Sig 229. I just like the smaller 9's, maybe because I can carry them more easily so I practice with them more.
