FN 510 Tactical 10mm First Impressions!

[@BaddFrogg777]

Excellent presentation on an awesome handgun. Going to wait six months and see if price drops several hundred dollars. Especially with the unsupported chamber, etc..Neat firearm, caliber, and high capacity magazines,

Thank you! Yeah, I definitely agree to wait for some solutions.

PSA - the FN 510 has an unsupported chamber resulting in brass bulge. It’s worse than the Glock bulge. Reloading for the FN can result in case failure and blowout. I wish I know this before paying $1k. 😢 I spoke with FN regarding this concern. They said that they are aware of the issue, but aren’t doing anything to solve it. In their exact words, “it operates fine, you just can’t reload your brass.” I’m sure that a certain slop is attentional to aid in reliability, but this is excessive. I’m would watch this closely. It’s only a matter of time before some has a blowout and this is elevated to a legal issue. 🤷‍♂️

Thank you! I'll be checking my brass after what you've said!

Nice but is it better than sig x ten?

[@ancientmodernweapons]

I'll have to do a video of them side by side.

@@ancientmodernweapons Great. How about the impressions after the first shot. Which is more accurate?

​@@donio8194​ The grip on the Sig feels more natural than the FN, even before shooting it. Then shooting it, goes to sights, felt/perceived recoil, trigger, capacity, and accuracy. Sights: FN, with their tritium suppressor height sights. Felt/perceived recoil: Sig feels more natural and better return to zero/target. Trigger: Sig, better flat face, weight, and faster reset. Capacity: FN, 1×15 and 1×22, while sig comes with 2×15s. Accuracy: Minimal or no difference in accuracy. All of the above is my opinion, take it with a grain of salt.
