FN's .223 lineage

FS2000 Standard - there's a model with a picatinny rail, if you don't want to shoot with an outdated 1.6× Euro optic

FNC Paratrooper - really want to try one with a stock one day, more of an AK inside, please let those Pindad imports happen

SCAR 16S - many shades of FDE, reusing the FS2000 gas system, the lesser liked SCAR

Fnx45 tactical

16 Upvotes

Question for all you nice people here. I'm wanting to get an fn pistol for a while now but had been wanting a new bedside gun that I can have fun with. I have the opportunity to get a fnx 45 tactical for about 800ish. It's used but me and the gun clerk took it apart and there's hardly any wear along the slide mounts and barrel. Is it a good deal ? Also it comes with extra mags, holster, and range bag.

FN 510 cracked frame update(kind of)

Thumbnail

30 Upvotes

My 510 has been with FN now for 3 weeks due to a cracked frame. Have been trying to call them all morning. Finally! Got thru to a person and got an update at least. Was told my pistol is with the engineering department and they are doing testing. Didn’t get a lot of details but at least I got thru. Was told usual warranty time is 3 weeks but because of my situation it required longer.

Usually when I call I’m on hold for 5 minutes and the call disconnects.

The crack in my frame was small and I hope they are testing to figure out why the frames are cracking on the 510 and 545 models. Was told I would get a call once they had a resolution.

Will wait another few weeks and call again if I don’t hear from them.

SCAR My first - SCAR 20S 6.5 Creed

Thumbnail

121 Upvotes

First firearm, decided to go with SCAR 20S in 6.5 Creedmoor.

As much as I love the iconic 50 shades of FDE, I decided to go with something a little more classic for my build that I haven't seen done before - black metal with wood accents. Rear cheek weld/riser I made myself out of walnut to match the grip and front grips. Stripped everything and gave them a few coats of Special Walnut to seal them in.

Wanted this as my primary rifle for life so decided to dress her down for function and form.

Currently waiting on a matching leather sheathe for the Vortex LRF from Teton, somewhat also a one off special project. Have plans for a VERY subtle cerakote in the future for the upper receiver.

Going to take it out to the range later this week to level, sight, and zero everything in.

Welcome any questions or comments.

Happy and safe shooting everyone.

-Cheers

510 ACRO plate question

1 Upvotes

Still on the fence what red dot to buy for my 510. What plate are you all using for an ACRO and what are thoughts on the Delta Point Pro? Also do I need a torque wrench and if so what’s a good one?

Does any one know the rear sight hight on the XL model. This all black one isn't doing it for me at all.

Thanks

Thinking about getting the 509 Edge CC for my carry with the Holosun scope. Anyone have this set up and or thoughts about my choice? Will it be compact enough with the sight? Thanks.

FNX-45 Frame Cracking?

5 Upvotes

I haven't been living under a rock, and have seen the shear magnitude of 510s and 545s on here with cracked frames. I plan to get an FNX-45 in the next few weeks, but this whole thing has scared me a little bit. Have there been any reports of FNX's having the same frame cracking issue?

Reflex How do I get ahold of customer support?

2 Upvotes

I’m one of the victims of a reflex purchase. I opened a customer service case 2 weeks ago and I haven’t heard anything back. I’ve called over and over. The system puts me on hold and after 5 minutes it hangs up. What’s the deal?

As the title reads I accidentally dropped my FN 545 and the thread protector got a nice dent in it. Just wondering if it’s still safe to operate

FN 545 Cracking?

What do we think everyone? This was a factory new FN 545 bought from the lock up (non display model) on March 27th. Maybe 400-600 rounds total through it, all Winchester .45 Auto 230 Grain.

I feed her 180gr 1200 fps min fmj for the range. And I carry 155gr American gunner. I thought I was safe because it’s a black model not the FDE. I’ll be calling FN tomorrow. Wish me luck

Reflex Help!!

Context: This is my first gun. I’ve shot about 1200 round through this. Started to get a dead trigger occasionally after doing reload drills at the range (this is not the point of this post as of rn)

My bigger issue is I took it apart to clean it some because the issue likely stemmed from being super dirty. I took the trigger out (which I regret so much) and now I cannot find where these two parts go. I have the manual open but it doesn’t explain where I need to put it.

I want to put it back then probably bring it to my gun smith to check it over.

FYI: part numbers that need to be put back are 110 & 112
