*SOLD* FNH USA 509 Tactical 9mm FDE 4.5" *INSTALLED VORTEX VIPER RED DOT SIGHT*

Bryant Ridge's Analysis:

The FN 509 Tactical Semi-Auto Pistol is a purpose-driven evolution of the standard FN 509, originally developed as part of FN’s entry into the U.S. Army's Modular Handgun System (MHS) trials. Designed with tactical and personal defense applications in mind, the 509 Tactical incorporates a series of enhancements that elevate its capability beyond the standard duty pistol. Most notably, it features a ½" x 28 threaded barrel for suppressor compatibility, complete with a thread cap, and tall suppressor-height night sights that ensure a clear sight picture even with a suppressor attached. Its standout FN Low Profile Optics Mounting System allows direct mounting of many commercially available miniature red dot optics (MRDs) without the need for custom milling. The slide cap, when not using an optic, adds practical functionality by including protective raised wings around the rear sight and a textured ramp for one-handed slide manipulation against surfaces like belts or boot heels.
 
Aesthetically and functionally refined, the pistol is finished in Flat Dark Earth (FDE) for both the slide and polymer frame, giving it a rugged, mission-ready appearance. The frame incorporates an aggressive yet intelligently placed grip texturing pattern that offers control without discomfort, and two interchangeable backstraps ensure ergonomic fit across a wide range of hand sizes. The striker-fired, double-action-only (DAO) trigger delivers a short, smooth pull with a crisp break and a tactile, audible reset, enhancing shot-to-shot consistency. Safety is built into the trigger design, preventing accidental discharge unless the trigger is deliberately pulled and the slide is in battery. Fully ambidextrous controls, including the magazine and slide releases, make the 509 Tactical an excellent option for both right- and left-handed shooters. With its tactical upgrades and high-end adaptability, the FN 509 Tactical is a standout in the striker-fired pistol market, equally suitable for professionals, enthusiasts, and personal defense users alike.
