I'm assuming Glocks and M&Ps don't do that.

I'm assuming Glocks and M&Ps don't do that.

Ive never heard of one doing it, and there are lots of glocks being used in Iraq and Afghanistan where its hotter than texas.

I just watched the video and realized this is the $1k gun, not the $450 gun.

The interesting thing is that the article does not mention how much time it was left in the condition in which it was heated or where. The FNX may use a different compound to help it "mold" itself to the user's body. If you wonder about a glock, check out the glock meltdown thread in which a G17 with an auto sear ran over 1500 round and the only thing that failed majorly was the guide rod. Even the thinnest part of the lower drooped only slight from the slide!

Maybe MSRP, I have owned both the FNS and FNX and paid Glock prices for both.

Actually, I think I got one of them fro. @Bullseyebo.


Neither one of them impressed me. Honestly, I don't think I have ever been impressed by anything FN.
