FN FNS-40/FNX-40 .40 S&W
Description: Guns Listing ID: 571346 Psj009108 Comes with box and 2 spare mags The FN FNX-40 is a full-size, double-/single-action (DA/SA) semi-automatic pistol made by FN America, chambered in the .40 S&W cartridge. It was introduced in 2009 as part of the FNX series, which succeeded the FNP line. Key Specifications Caliber: .40 S&W Capacity: 14 rounds in standard magazines (some variations and restricted-magazine versions may be lower) Barrel Length: 4.0 inches, cold hammer-forged stainless steel; twist rate 1:16" RH. Overall Length: ~7.4 inches. Height: ~5.45 inches. Width: About 1.55 inches. Weight (unloaded): ~24.4 ounces. Features & Design Frame & Build: Polymer frame with steel slide rails. The grip has checkered and ribbed texture panels; two (or in later versions four) interchangeable backstraps allow fitting to different hand sizes. Slide & Barrel: Stainless steel slide with front and rear serrations to assist with manipulation. Barrel is cold hammer-forged, with polished chamber and feed ramp for reliable feeding. Operating Controls: Fully ambidextrous controls—safety/de-cocking lever, slide stop, and magazine release are mirrored on both sides. It uses a ring-style external hammer. Sights: Comes standard with fixed 3-dot sights. There are options for night sights (tritium) on some models. Rail & Accessories: Under-barrel MIL-STD-1913 accessory rail for mounting lights or lasers. Pros & Trade-Offs Pros: The DA/SA trigger gives a safer “first-shot" heavier pull with a manual decocker for safer carry. High capacity for a .40 S&W in a full-size platform, giving good firepower. Good ergonomics with alternate backstraps, ambidextrous controls, and solid build materials. Reliable feeding and durability: the stainless slide and barrel, cold hammer forging, etc., are known for ruggedness. Trade-Offs: Being a full-size pistol, it’s larger and heavier—less ideal for deep concealment or extended carry compared to compact/slim models. Recoil is more noticeable than smaller 9mm handguns, especially being .40 S&W, though mitigated somewhat by the weight and frame design. More complexity (DA/SA mechanism, manual safety / decocker) means more parts, more learning curve, and slightly more maintenance. Role & Ideal Usage The FNX-40 is well suited for people who want a duty or home-defense handgun with: Strong stopping power (.40 S&W) and good magazine capacity. A robust, rugged build that can take wear and deliver reliable performance. Ambidextrous features and control versatility for left or right hand shooters. A pistol that handles well for those who prefer full size—less compromise in grip, sight radius, etc. If you like, I can compare the FNX-40 directly to the FNX-9 or some other pistols (like the P365, LCP MAX) to show how they differ in handling, ammo cost, recoil, etc. Manufacturer: FN Model: FNS-40/FNX-40 Caliber Info: .40 S&W Condition: Used - Non-Certified Barrels: 4.3" BARREL Action: SEMI AUTOMATIC Finish: black Price: $499.99 Contact Seller |
