The FN 509 Midsize Tactical is a versatile 9mm pistol built around a midsize frame and full-size slide for a balanced combination of control, concealability, and duty-ready performance. Its striker-fired action features a duty-safe trigger with a 5.6-pound pull, while the ergonomic polymer grip and interchangeable backstraps help provide a comfortable, secure hold. The 4.5-inch barrel is threaded 1/2x28 and supplied with a thread protector, making the pistol suppressor-ready. FN's Low-Profile Optics-Mounting System supports a broad range of pistol red-dot optics, and suppressor-height three-dot night sights provide a clear aiming reference. The package includes 15-round and 24-round magazines.
