Everything we sell is 100% GUARANTEED - Period.800-741-0015 brownells.comSource Code: CJHslide is marked with “FNH USA FredericksburgVA” and “MADE IN USA.”As with most semiautos, the FNP-40has a rail in front of the trigger guardfor installing a light. For my use Iinstalled a Streamlight M6X whichallows two options, a flashlight anda red laser sight. It’s quite easily andquickly attached or removed.For my eyes and hold,the sights were right onwith most loads for bothwindage and elevation.There are three controls on the leftside of the FNP-40. From front to backthese are the takedown lever, the sliderelease and the de-cocker. The last isambidextrous. As a right-hander, I foundthe de-cocker easy to reach with mythumb without having to change my grip.The magazine release is found on the leftside at the juncture of the front strap andtrigger guard and with my short thumbit’s necessary for me to slightly changemy grip to be able to push the magazinerelease. When the button is depressed themagazine drops freely and easily.The FNP-40 comes in a lockableplastic case, with not one, nor even two,but three magazines. With the FNP-40fully loaded and two extra magazinesthere are only seven rounds left in a fullbox of .40 S&W ammunition. That’ssome pretty impressive and easily carriedfirepower.The 300Six varieties of ammunition fromBlack Hills, Hornady and Remingtonwere used in the FNP-40, with slightlyover 300 rounds fired. Hornady 155-gr.XTP delivered 1,113 fps and was thefastest of the bunch. The Black Hills 180-gr. JHP delivered a decisive 974 fps andwould be an outstanding self-defenseload. The functioning was 100-percentperfect, with no problems whatsoever.For me, firing a full magazine takes anawful lot of concentration and except fora military application it’s not likely thismany rounds would ever be needed, eventhough it’s comforting to have them.Test-firing was done at both 10 and20 yards with 13 rounds, and a more reasonablefour shots at seven yards. TheFNP-40 was shot both with my forearmsresting on a sandbag and also from abraced standing position. The defensivetypefour-shot groups were all 11/2" or lessand shot right to point of aim. What morecould anyone desire in a semiautochosen for self defense?*For more info: www.americanhandgunner.com/productindex.html98 WWW.AMERICANHANDGUNNER.COM • MARCH/APRIL 2010
