very historically true my friend they are as old school as S&W but indeed S&W is a little more well known than they are so therefor for home defense and self defense i go S&W and FNH all day
@@jeffd3802 Got mine from Dunham's too early this spring. I like it almost as much as my CZ's but a very reliable firearm eats every ammo type I feed it.
One of the best reviews I’ve ever seen, awesome video thank you for sharing, I own both the FNS-9c and the FN-509 . Your review, spot on. Thank you for your service.
Fn the quiet gun company ! Making quality firearms for military and civilian use . Your spot on Jay you can tell your speaking from experience on each every feature in your RUclips videos. Your long term topics improve your credibility.K
Hey man. I really like your reviews, pretty informative and comprehensive. I'm an FNS9 owner and I love it. I agree it seems better than the 509 in most ways. I don't understand why FNS isn't more popular. I've been racking my brain for a couple weeks reviewing and comparing specs on subcompact carry guns and after multiple store visits and spec comparisons of 20 or so guns...lol looks like I'll be picking up an FNS9C. It was down to FN or a Glock 26. Shouldn't have been as difficult as I made it I guess. Anyhow great vid. Be safe. Thanks for your service!
good choice.. n it is always tough decision... at least 2 me usually lmao.. im a die hard glock fan... n it kills me but this gun is mafe better, higher quality... but still love my. glocks too... 😁😁😁
Nice review. Thank you for your service. A couple things. The 509 was designed from the 9c technology . The lock block and slide system are nearly the same. I carry the 9c every day. Love it. Not crazy about the 509 but the New 509 midsize has some promise and i like what I’ve seen so far. Thanks again for a great review. Keep em comin.
nice review. I've carried my fns 9c for a year and shot it quite a bit. Your observations match mine. The trigger smoothes out with use and it is easy to hit well under timed/stressed shooting. Quality is great and egonomics fit my size large hands perfect.
Good video, this is one of the next guns I want to purchase. Like you I prefer to carry a double stack, thanks for info and stay safe out there fella!!!
Great review. Siipped under our radar. We are going to have to get one of these to evaluate as an Ambidextral Pistol...see if it can dethrone the PPQ M1 Classic.
Just FYI, HIVIZ also makes a front fiber-optic sight for the FNS/FNX. I have a set on my FNS-9 and FNS-40. They are very bright and work great. You do have to specify caliber because the sight height is different on the front blade for the two calibers. The FNS is an outstanding pistol, I sure wish the magazines weren’t damn near $50 each though! I can’t stock up on them like I do on my Glocks. Also.... by far my biggest beef with FN.... they once again changed the magazine design with the 509, so FN has guaranteed to keep the magazine cash cow flowing by forcing current FNS owners to buy all new magazines if they ever wanted to get a 509 (which I don’t because I find it inferior).
Thank you for your service from a veteran (RET) to a LEO. Your review is one that was very informative. I too am a FANBOY of FN firearms and one caveat to your review is the grip angle no over correction at POA. These firearms are seriously under rated and should be IMO up there above M&P and the SIG P320 . FNS and FNX just run and run. Accuracy is on par with your CZ’s IMO as well. Great review!!!
Great video on a nice gun. Love the FDE as I have the FNX 45 Tactical and the new 509 Tactical both in FDE. Keep up the good work and be safe out there, my brother in blue.
Awesome pistol. I have been carrying this pistol for over 3 years now. I have 1200+ rounds though it and not one problem,about half steel case ammo,about 800 rounds of defensive ammo, and the rest brass. Also have several FNS 9 standard which I carry in the winter up here in Pacific Northwest. Great video and great firearm,way under rated. I would take the Pepsi challenge with Glock any day.
I appreciate it. I don't use a script or a list and also don't put any range footage in these videos. I generally just try to think of what I'd want to know if I was thinking about buying the pistol and roll with it. They generally all come out to around 20 minutes in one take, which often astonishes me.
I gave the FNS9C a chance because of my experience with the M249B. It’s been (5) years now. I worked the hell out of the trigger with dry fires very early. I was blown away by the butter it became. Then I started getting a slam fire mid magazine on all my mags. Sent it back in. I don’t know exactly what they did to correct it but the trigger work I did was lost. Probably cycled 600 through it since for a total of roughly 1500. Eats it all and handles very well with its bore axis. Good purchase for large hands. Fit and finish worthy of the price tags.
When I first got away from Glock (during Gen 3) I went with the FNS. Ran an FNS40 for home and FNS9C for carry. I went with FN for the same reasons you like them. I had very positive experience with FN weapons in military. The FNS9C is an outstanding weapon for sure and I suggest it to people all the time. I gave the 509 a try and let it go. Just did not wow me. The FNS was highly overlooked during its time.
Very good review. Well thought out and presented. Some helpful details I had not noticed or thought about. I shoot a 4in barrel length more accurately than the subcompact 3in models. A 3.5in might work ok for me. Excellent review ... thanks.
The fact that sig won the mhs contract goes to show the military chooses the cheapest option vs the better option. Almost every other gun presented is light years better than sig mhs gun.
I owned two of these pistols in black. The first one FN replaced, the reason being that I figured out that dry firing it a lot with a magazine installed will wear the follower down ever so slightly until the mag release will fail to eject the magazine. It failed three times and I blew through most of my followers until FN decided to replace it. As soon as I received my new pistol I sold it off (I never stick people with lemons). I would have said it was probably just my sample, but quite a few people have had problems with the FNS mag release (though I don't remember anyone at the time mentioning anything about dry firing). Personally, I think the detent on the magazine itself is too small and can't survive a slight change in the way it lines up with the mag catch once the geometry of the follower changes. If you don't mind doing a healthy amount of dry practice, you might try replicating the result (or help prove it's not all FN FNS9c's).
Spot on review. I have a Glock 19 that i spent $400 to get it where i like it. The FNS-C9 IS awesome right out of the box. I carry my FNS-C9 as my every day carry now. I'd take my glock in to full on combat but my FN is my #1 concealed carry now.
Very nice video Sir... So many GREAT information... I think you bought me into these guns, I was a bit skeptical about them, I don't know why!!! lol And by the way, THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICES!!!
Picked one up in black from my FFL today, can't wait to get it to the range. Bought it NIB with shipping and FFL fee for just under $400 from an online auction. When I saw MrGunsandGear added one to his carry rotation, it made me take notice. Still in love with it a year later?
Good video and I really like my FNS-9C. Eats every ammo type with no hiccups & reminds me a lot of my CZ's. I bought the black version because of the 3 mags that came with it. This is also a NATO certified firearm & has gone through all the test, they told me this when I called the company.
It’s a great pistol. The only changes I did was put the full size mag release on (the stock was too small for me) and night sights (FDE version didn’t come with them). You made a good decision to get the 3 mag version. To this day the magazines are not plentiful and still expensive.
After 300 rounds, very impressed with FNS9c. For a push button mag release, it is my favorite (I prefer paddle mag release). I like that I am less likely to find my mag accidentally disengaged with the FNS9c's recessed buttons or a holster protected paddle mag release. So far, my left hand slide release is not working well, but it is slowly improving...maybe another 500 rounds. As a civilian, I rarely carry an extra mag, so how fast a mag change is or how well the ambi slide releases work fade in importance.
Been carrying the 9C for several years now. It replaced my EDC GLOCK 23. Absolutely love it. In fact many of my friends have replaced their glock 26 and M&P’s since seeing my 9C. However I have large hands so I am thinking of replacing my 9C for the midsized 509. However Size increase will have an impact in wardrobe selections. Ugh there is always trade offs. Decisions, decisions...
Apex Tactical released their trigger systems for FN models today! Good timing, JH! I guess you'll need to try one out and get back to us on it. I almost bought an FNS-9C when it first came out. It's a very impressive pistol, but I couldn't get past the very stiff mag release. That potentially could cost you your life in a gun fight. So, I backed off to see if FN would address it. They addressed it by saying that they engineered it to be a hard press to release the mag by design to ensure that it wasn't dislodged in error. I disagreed and moved on to other solutions like a G19, a G26, and an M&P M2.0 Compact that work very well for my needs. Too bad, as I really wanted that FNS 9-C. There was a lot to like. 😎👍🏻🇺🇸💥
I put the full size fns9 mag release in mine and solved the issue for me. I believe the more rugged 509 mag release fits in it as well. Havent had any issues with the increased size either
Good luck finding one for sale. Gunbroker only has them in .40 S&Ws. I have one in 9mm. The .40 is what sold me when I rented on at the range 4-5 years ago. It's now my EDC.
I've been carrying an FNS 9C for 2 years now, love it. I installed the Trijicon HDX sights. I like them a lot but the stock sights are very good. Also, swap out the stock mag release with the full size FNS 9 mag release, part #66406. Makes a huge difference. It runs all day no matter what type of ammo I run through it.
4 years late here, but I found a FNS 9c I really want (more than the 509) but know they were discontinued. Any advice on being able to find magazines or IWB holsters? I see a few online but not much. Thanks.
After FN moved production to South Carolina they fixed the issues with the FNS trigger. I had one of the original ones made in VA and it was horrible. I ended up having the factory replace it but got rid of it later. Been looking into one of these compacts but would only consider purchasing with the Columbia, SC stamp on the slide like yours. How's it been holding up now a year later?
Traded my g19 for the fns 9c plus some goodies on his end and i really like it glad i did the trade feels good in the hand trigger feels great and came with night sights. Its my edc
Full size FNS is actually a great gun. Only LE agency I heard of that adopted it is the Baltimore County Sheriff’s Office in Maryland. The botch job they incorporate to cover the space on the non-external safety models has always struck me as odd. I like the gun a lot though. The Trijicon HD XR sights for the FN are outstanding. Thinner front, and the rear is not sharp on my set compared to the ridiculously sharp edges I’ve had on other models.
Thanks for your service! I checked out that same pistol and absolutely freaked over it. Your right when it comes to marketing. This gun is flying so under the radar. The only reason why I checked this out was because SA sent me an email about the hellcat. I wanted to see the competition. I carry the XDS 45 but again your right about the amount of ammo the single stack holds. I do keep that in mind when I carry. So that brings me back to this weapon. Damn I’m prolly going to go back and pick this thing up. The market has changed dramatically in the last 3 years with the carry n conceal weapons. Thanks for the video
I bought this exact gun about a year and a half ago to carry but I rarely carry it because the beaver tail on the magazine is always showing. If I get the flush mount magazine that comes with the black version it will fit no problem right?
Actually people need to think outside the box, when you have a slanted rear sight look to the front sight. I have an FNS 40 that I can rack off the front sight.
Mine wont hold groups less than 5 inches!! Whether 7,10,15 yds. Or 3 different manufacturers of ammo. Did this with a gun vise.. I am not happy. Have you any suggestions to help me fix the problem? I see no defects.
Absolutely!!! I like the black better, but I love this gun. I did a review of this on my page, as well of the FNS9. Feel free to check them out. Nice video.
There is a small pin at the bottom of the backstrap. Tap it out with a small punch, slide the backstrap down and reverse the process to put on the new one.
Fn is the most underrated firearm manufacturer out there
Actually, they are highly rated but relatively unknown to the general public.
I think Bersa is one of the most under rated and unknown gun makers.
The trigger on the BP9cc is unreal!
very historically true my friend they are as old school as S&W but indeed S&W is a little more well known than they are so therefor for home defense and self defense i go S&W and FNH all day
I luv my 509. Its very quick and accurate
I just got one. Cannot stress how much better of a shooting experience that the FNS 9C has over the G26. Great vid.
How is the recoil? I have a few handguns and the best one i have is a sig, i like the smooth slide, hows the slide on this on
Recoil is significantly less
Agreed
always appreciate your perspective man, you might have the most reality based and in-depth reviews I have seen yet
I had no reason to purchase one either but i did today☺
Hahaha. Me too. Ordered from dunhams sporting goods..sale for 429.00
I looked at one today walked in just to look and almost walked out with this one I might go back
@@jeffd3802 Got mine from Dunham's too early this spring.
I like it almost as much as my CZ's but a very reliable firearm eats every ammo type I feed it.
Had this gun previously and loved it.... Times just got hard, but it's in my near future..

I have the FNS 9c black. Very nice gun. I also looked at the FNS 9 full size and it almost came home with me. Thanks for another good review.
Thorough and detailed review. Nice job.

ra camp what causes it to jam? Mines misfire after two shots the bullets fail to release one shot
It’s amazing to me how long you can talk about a basic polymer pistol. Having said that I always watch til the end. Lol
I appreciate it. I don't use a script or a list and also don't put any range footage in these videos. I generally just try to think of what I'd want to know if I was thinking about buying the pistol and roll with it. They generally all come out to around 20 minutes in one take, which often astonishes me.
Solid review J. Makes me second guess my M&P 9c.

The fact that sig won the mhs contract goes to show the military chooses the cheapest option vs the better option. Almost every other gun presented is light years better than sig mhs gun.

Great review. 99.9% of owners will not have any problems carrying such a fine weapon !
I just bought this same FDE variant haven't shot it yet but I'm in love with it
Just got the full size on a really good deal. Totally getting the compact too. Seriously underrated pistol!
Front seights to big
Nice. I’m looking forward to your next PX4 Compact Carry video.
Between you and Me: holy smokes that gun is unreal 😳. Review will be up in the next few weeks.🤫

I looked all over town for the that thing and no one had it.
It was one on my list.
I purchased 10 months ago and love it also own Glock 26 compact
This FN eats every ammo with no failures. I dont trust any other firearm in my collection over this. Enjoy your videos.
Great review. My daughter has that mag pinky bite issue with her Shield. Interesting.
Great thing about most compacts now like the G43x is you get that bigger grip, thin profile and they have 15 round mags.
Excellent and Detailed Review of the FN-9C! I am going to add it to my Stable of Pistols! Looking forward to more Videos & Thumbs Up!
Good luck finding one for sale. Gunbroker only has them in .40 S&Ws. I have one in 9mm. The .40 is what sold me when I rented on at the range 4-5 years ago. It's now my EDC.
I've been carrying an FNS 9C for 2 years now, love it. I installed the Trijicon HDX sights. I like them a lot but the stock sights are very good.

HQL course in a month! Can’t wait to get one of these
I have fns9c, fns9, and fns40. They are my favorite striker fired pistols.
Great video, thanks
nice review love this gun all my FN's are super reliable and will eat any ammo I feed them unlike my sig's that are a little finicky
Thanks. I love mine !
There is a service bulletin for the FNS, built before 2/17 regarding a trigger issue. Go to FN’s website to see if your FNS is recommended for service
I had no reason to purchase one last-week, but I did.
4 years late here, but I found a FNS 9c I really want (more than the 509) but know they were discontinued. Any advice on being able to find magazines or IWB holsters? I see a few online but not much. Thanks.
My favorite compact. I have a black one!
After FN moved production to South Carolina they fixed the issues with the FNS trigger. I had one of the original ones made in VA and it was horrible. I ended up having the factory replace it but got rid of it later. Been looking into one of these compacts but would only consider purchasing with the Columbia, SC stamp on the slide like yours. How's it been holding up now a year later?
Got one today..great and beautiful pistol..does the backstrap pin have to be taken off in a certain direction??
I like my FNS 9c.Thought about trading for another G26.But for now I'm going to hold on.
Traded my g19 for the fns 9c plus some goodies on his end and i really like it glad i did the trade feels good in the hand trigger feels great and came with night sights. Its my edc
Great review I recommend the FNS-9C to my friend for a all about gun good to Carry and home Defense. Waiting for His permit. 😎👍
Are sights for the FNS9 same size or interchangeable with FNS40?
MK3 firearms does a great trigger job on this fns9c or all fns line, you won't need the apex after that...
Thanks for the video. Are you thinking to put the Apex on those two?
Matter of fact I am... At least on the full size.
Proud owner of a FN9S full size. Wanted to travel the road less traveled (Glock hwy)
XS big dot makes'em for the FNS9 and FNS9c!! I think I'll like "dotting the eye!!! . I hate my stock 3 dots on my 4 in FNS9!!! LOVE THE GUN!!
Two in one day!! Heck yeah
Full size FNS is actually a great gun. Only LE agency I heard of that adopted it is the Baltimore County Sheriff’s Office in Maryland. The botch job they incorporate to cover the space on the non-external safety models has always struck me as odd. I like the gun a lot though. The Trijicon HD XR sights for the FN are outstanding. Thinner front, and the rear is not sharp on my set compared to the ridiculously sharp edges I’ve had on other models.
I'll have to check out the trij. HD XR I didn't care much for the original HD's due to the massive front post and sharp rear as you mentioned.
Nicely done buddro
can a different slide be added so a red dot can be added?
Thanks for your service!
I checked out that same pistol and absolutely freaked over it.
Your right when it comes to marketing. This gun is flying so under the radar.
The only reason why I checked this out was because SA sent me an email about the hellcat. I wanted to see the competition.
I carry the XDS 45 but again your right about the amount of ammo the single stack holds. I do keep that in mind when I carry.
So that brings me back to this weapon.
Damn I’m prolly going to go back and pick this thing up.
The market has changed dramatically in the last 3 years with the carry n conceal weapons.
Thanks for the video
Opinions on this compared to a p320 compact for AIWB carry? Those are two handguns I’m currently looking at.
This is smaller than the P320 compact. More along the lines of the p320SC. That said, there are a lot of holster options for the P320
where can i find a IWB holster for this handgun?
I like it!
Thank you so much for the video. Do you have any suggestions on a IWB holster for the FNS 9C?
I use the Dara holsters model and I like it pretty well
@@jhelmsing: Thank you! I'll look into it!
I've been using the Alien Gear cloak tuck 3.0. Like it a lot. Tried the T-Rex arms Nomad as well but it flopped around a lot
Glock 19 holsters work. I use glock 30 holsters for my fns 40. Czpo7 also fits in glock 30 holsters.
Try black arch protos m amazing holster for the 9c. Its alittle pricey but the quality and comfort are top notch
I bought this exact gun about a year and a half ago to carry but I rarely carry it because the beaver tail on the magazine is always showing. If I get the flush mount magazine that comes with the black version it will fit no problem right?
Yes it will
I can’t find any FDE 17rd magazine for my fns 9c ! :(
Actually people need to think outside the box, when you have a slanted rear sight look to the front sight. I have an FNS 40 that I can rack off the front sight.
Choose over a 19 gen4?
Mine wont hold groups less than 5 inches!! Whether 7,10,15 yds. Or 3 different manufacturers of ammo. Did this with a gun vise.. I am not happy. Have you any suggestions to help me fix the problem? I see no defects.
If you don't like it get something else. Maybe a HIGHPOINT
You would rather 6/8 rounds rather than 14/16 rounds?
It is!
Absolutely!!! I like the black better, but I love this gun. I did a review of this on my page, as well of the FNS9. Feel free to check them out. Nice video.
Built like a tank!
Fns9c or xd mod 2 sc 9? I'm a Springfield guy but fn is top notch too.
4 months later and I'm debating the same question with myself.

Thanks

There is a small pin at the bottom of the backstrap. Tap it out with a small punch, slide the backstrap down and reverse the process to put on the new one.
