Any thoughts on one vs. the other?

Any thoughts on one vs. the other?

I haven't shot either one yet (Had to get more 45 ammo). I will this week however.

The FNX is heavier and wider. Naturally the grip is larger as well. The FNX is a tank and there is no question they built it for combat. My FNX-9 is also a tank and I just love the FNH products. And their trigger out of the box is the best I have felt (Sorry Sig).

The HK is probably built like a tank as well, but considering it is double the money as the FNX, I treat it more like a Cadillac. The grip (just like the P30) fits my hand perfectly. It is balanced slightly better than the FNX and there are more accessories available. The am sure both will shoot great, but I think the HK will be just a little better. (My P30 shoots just a little better than my FNX-9). The only compliant about the HKs is the trigger. But the HK45 trigger is actually better than the P30 (so far).

I will update later when I shoot both and may even do a comparision review.

not a gun, but takes me to a free state with guns!

I have the FNP tactical and the HK45 Tactical.Im a HK Guy...the tactical HK was my first love. To this day she is my go to sidearm. But I have to say this FN is a joy to shoot.I am in love with the RMR .I think she shoots softer than my HKs and carrys more lead.

I have 800 rounds thru the FN in the last week and a half.....I'm struggling daily with which one comes to work with me lol! I think both guns do everything right!

Thanks. I'd like an FNX but I don't want to put in the effort to find one in this craphole of a state. I have an HK45 now.

I wouldn't worry too much about the HK build quality, but I can understand treating it with care given the price.

2003 Suzuki SV650. First bike.

Thanks for everything Matt. Now permit and learning how to ride . I can't believe I bought a boat, errrrr bike.

Congrats. Gear up and ride safe. We need another group ride soon.

Thanks brother, the SV650 is such a cool bike. Yeah I'm registering it this week and getting my permit! Of course I'll be safe. My parents took it better than I expected. I've been debating it since I was 16ish. 24 now, time to ride.

Cool! More reasons to head out to central MA! Let me know if/when you're heading out this way and I'll show you some nice roads around here.

Perfect analogy

 

[AllaSnackbah]

Finally got ourselves a GSD, he's solid blue. Haven't decided on a name yet but Panzer, Stuka, Rommel, Luger, and Mauser are all options we're thinking of. Any ideas???

Buy me a Hazmat suit for the Registry. I'm not some Obama voter that doesn't work and can go to the registry, rest of us look at their 1 1/2hr wait from an iPhone at work and get pissed. Weds=quarter end, after that I'll be clear. Bitch.

Nice GSD.

You can make an appointment online for your permit (I think) and it's supposed to be about 20 minutes in & out. I didn't, and I think I waited about 1/2 hour (though I was expecting a lot worse). Now on to the MSF course!

Got this shipped/transferred to my FFL yesterday. NIB Henry Big Boy 357 and put on a brass skinner peep sight, hopefully will be shooting it for the first time this weekend depending on the weather. I almost gave in and overpaid on GunBroker but waited patiently for grabagun.com to get them back in stock and got an email notification last Friday and quickly bought it and had it by the following Thursday.
