The staged explosives.So which gun did they actually use to kill the melon, the .45 or the 10mm ???
The staged explosives.
FN has just announced new striker-fired 10mm and 45! I was curious about FNX-45, but it's hammer fired, and I wanted a modern 10/45 in the striker-fired form that wasn't ugly or Glock. Behold!

Your argument might be more convincing if you spell right lolFud rounds

Is there any trigger in a striker fired gun that doesn’t feel like crap compared to a hammer gun equivalent?
I may be to old to understand this love for striker fired pistols. I own a few, and have shot a ton more but none have impressed me with their triggers.
Whats the value here I’m missing?
(Sorry for the drift op)
23 rounds of 10mm? What are we worried about, a Bearpocalypse?

I own nothing but Glocks for pistols (except a Ruger MKIV) and I have no love for striker fired. More like I'm ok with it and it does what it needs to do.Is there any trigger in a striker fired gun that doesn’t feel like crap compared to a hammer gun equivalent?

Am I the only one who doesn't particularly care if I'm using a Glock trigger or a 1911 trigger? As long as it's not very vague and sloppy with a lot of unnecessary travel, I don't mind it.Is there any trigger in a striker fired gun that doesn’t feel like crap compared to a hammer gun equivalent?

.45 is not going anywhere, it's still very popular, especially in competitive shooting.Reports of the death of the 45 has been greatly exaggerated. Nice to see..

Why do you think it is? Was it the price? The company innovates pretty heavily. I am genuinely curious.It will fail commercially just like most of the rest of their handguns.
If you want a fantastic trigger in a striker-fired gun, get a Timney for Glocks. Holy cow! All other triggers(ex. Apex) are garbage compared to it.Is there any trigger in a striker fired gun that doesn’t feel like crap compared to a hammer gun equivalent?

10mm is trivial to reload. Unlike 9mm, it is a straight wall cartridge, and it shares the same dies as the 40S&W. The bullets are plentiful and cheap, thanks to 40S&W. If re-using brass, 10mm can be reloaded for the price of the cheapest 9mm ammo. In other words, 10mm is an ideal candidate for reloading!That's like $60 in 10mm
???If you have to suppress your 45........God help you.
When Dan 'Eyepatch McCain' Crenshaw loses a primary in two years they can hire him to by FN's spokesmodel to 'boost' sales.Come on now, it's not a Raytheon missile test.
Care to expand? Poor quality, something else?It will fail commercially just like most of the rest of their handguns.

I wouldnt be thrilled about using reloads for carry though. farting around at the range for sure. But if Im farting around at the range im going to want 9x19 anyway.10mm is trivial to reload.

Of course, reloads for personal carry is something most folks are not comfortable with, regardless of caliber. For that purpose, one buys a box of defensive rounds. That said, let's be honest here: 99.9999% of the ammo you will be shooting during your lifetime will be range ammo.I wouldnt be thrilled about using reloads for carry though. farting around at the range for sure.

Maybe its just me being a puss bag, probably is. The days of me killing myself with 340PDs and other stuff are over.
