Hello,
Finally got a chance to take my FNP 45 out for a spin again. This is my 3rd session with it. I changed the backstrap to the smaller one and that seems to be a lot better for my short fingers. I am really getting into this gun, but i still think the sights are off. I shot about 100rnds and the error was very consistent. This gun sucks up the recoil nicely, and now that im getting used to the different recoil of .45 (I mostly shoot .40) I dont think I'm flinching.
I tried it with a laser as well. A cheap $20 rail mount that I aligned with the sight picture. I got the same error as with sights alone. The laser fell apart after 2 mags, but it was worth it to see that I like the laser concept on this gun and I'm going to get a better one.
Anyone have experience with the Lasermax uni or the Laserlyte V2? I'm trying to decide between the 2.
Here are some targets from the session and some better pics of the FNP w/ comparison to my sig 229 in .40.
The first target is 7yds, second is 15yds and third is 7 yds, 3 rnd rapid fire.
Another thing I like about this gun is that rapid fire is very controllable and the trigger reset is shorter than my sig, almost as short as my old glock was.
I also measured the sights w/ some basic calipers, but is difficult to find somethin to measure against. However, it does seem the front sight is about .4mm to the right on the slide.
Let me know what you think
