I'm hoping to get to the range tomorrow. The dealer had a sale bin by the front door with all kings of junk and in it were 2 Browning marked 16 round mags! Obviously for the Pro-9. They fit the FNP like a glove. Virtually no difference expect the logo. It was nice to walk out of the shop with 5 mags! Sent off for the Shooters Pack today also.

This is the first gun I have ever seen that has a "practice barrel." What exactly is it for??

I teach NRA First Steps and Home Defense classes. The plastic barrel means I can use the gun in the classroom without resorting to an all plastic blue gun with no moving parts.

From a practical standpoint, if you dry fire with the plastic barrel installed there is NO WAY you can ND.

OTOH, if you end up killing your TV, you can't sue FN for not offering you a way to make your gun idiot proof.
