They want you to double box it.

I wouldn't send it in the original case- it's just something for them to lose. Put the gun, wrapped in bubble wrap, in a small box, and put that box inside another box.

Too bad about the frame crack. In my book, this is a problem with the FNP series of handguns and is making me rethink the possibility of my buying one. I'm quite happy with my Five-seveN, but I think I'm going to wait on the FNP.

I hope they get it taken care of for you. At least you'll get a new frame out of the deal.

I'd bet that the VAST, VAST majority of FNP owners don't even know that this forum exists, let alone post reports of their problems to it. I think the trigger group crack is a serious problem and has happened enough so that FNH is aware that there is probably a design flaw.

I have had conversations with FNH-USA representatives about this issue that lead me to believe that a frame redesign is underway, or has already been undertaken. I WILL NOT divulge who I talked to or exactly what leads me to believe this, because the question was not answered directly nor for public consumption.

It'll be interesting to see if the "Dark Earth" FNPs have the same frame design...

I have only seen a few posts on this subject, and you should probably believe that if it happens to ANYONE, they would post it on the first FN forum they find.

So, IMO, there are probably few cases of this happening, could be a bad batch of guns?

I have about 1,000+ rnds through my FNP9 and not a single malfunction or problem.
