Is the FN FNX 45 Tactical really the bee's knees?

If having to believe the 1911 played more than a miniscule side role in us winning 2 world wars then I'll gladly leave.

If it had been a FNX, Glock, Beretta, or any other modern handgun I don't think the outcome would have changed much.

I liken it to cheering for your favorite pro sportsball team on the tv and then claiming you were victorious when they win.

I fully support the belief that JMB was a genius though. His contributions are still used to great effect to this day.

Man I'm just giving y'all a hard time.. I truly love my 1911s
But there are other very good guns out there..
Since the surgery I'm carrying a xds 3.5 In 45
Cause it's light. I have a sccy ruger 380..

It's what works..
But it's a question of style. Jus sayin
DON'T MATTER WHAT YOU CARRY AS LONG AS YOU CARRY....





PS I LOVE GOLDWINGS. TAKE THAT

Hard times figuring out why their gun keeps having FTF's

Listen, when i carry a gun, i dont want some kind hearted, intimate piece of machinery.

I want a soulless, death dealing monster that leaves only despair and agony in its wake.

It's no accident that Gaston Glock is Austrian.

Tru dat brother but you want me to handle a Austrian man
Women hell yes but 13 snitzengrubiens is my limit

Great gun - problem is that parts are unobtanium, the aftermarket is non-existent, and when parts are available they're expensive. I wish I could carry my m9-a2, but between not being able to mount a dot and inability to get replacement parts if I need it's just a range toy.

I Reject all fierams the have a large after market for parts. Why? why do they need so many parts? Great firearms don't require butt loads of add on or replaced parts. Just my wooden nickels worth.

I mean, people will sell ANYTHING.

An aftermarket, big or small really doesn't mean anything.

A glock isn't better or worse than anything else just because you can but a trigger pin from 14 different companies instead of just one

How about sights - try finding specific height sights for a firearm other than Sig, Glock, or M&P....getting your slide cut for an optic and don't want the "suppressor height" sighs to take up half the window? SOL if you're rocking a gun with limited support and difficult to find parts. I had a hard enough time trying to find sight for a P320 that wouldn't occlude the hell out of the window after getting my slide(s) cut for optics.

How about magazines? Even Sig mags were difficult to get for a long time and are expensive...M&P, CZ, etc have had their availability issues in the past and all have pricey mags.

Want a magwell? How about a mag extension for the range? How about an aftermarket magazine for the range so you can preserve your OEM jobs for carry or duty?

I could go on, but I don't think I need to - I'm not talking about fancy aftermarket triggers (although it's nice to have options) and whatnot....just stuff that normally gets tossed around when buying a new gun.

I guess if you're not a red dot person and you don't care about buying mags or using extensions for the range and all that then aftermarket and overall parts availability is meaningless...but even a lot of Glock OEM parts (like trigger components for example) are getting damn near impossible to find...

Just my wooden nickels worth.

As far as I know there is more than one kind of handgun made.
So EACH can have their chosen preferred one.
At least for now.
