You took soooo long to release a FNS9 Compact I finally broke down and bought a Glock 26 Gen 4, and guess what, I like it. Its a chunky little beastie but the Gen 4 grip and size to capacity ratio filled a void in my lineup that I really wanted to fill bad. That being said, if FN gets their act together and released an FNS9 Compact Im sure i could be persuaded to part ways with the G26. As I compared my FNS9 and G26 side by side I couldnt help but imagine how much better an FNS9C would feel and conceal than the G26. with a 10-12 rd magazine it would be superb.
I ran my FNS9 through a Defensive Pistol class this past Saturday and it ran like a champ. 300 Rounds, Malfunction drills, Mozambique, Zipper, one handed drills, etc with no problems other than a couple of light reloads not causing the slide to lock open. The FNS was dead on accurate and made the XDM and 1911 boys give me dirty looks. Prior to the class during a 250 rd break in it functioned flawlessly with 124gr full powered loads, 115gr loads, and Hornady Critical Duty.
So Dammit, I REALLY want an FNS9C but I had to go to the dark side to fill the void for now. (Blue Label Pricing on the G26 made the pill easier to swallow too)
