1FN 509 MIDSIZE TACTICAL
Equipped with the versatile Low-Profile Optics-Mounting System and midsize grip frame, the 9mm FN 509 Midsize Tactical is a perfectly balanced pistol that’s optics-ready and multi-role capable. Weighing in at just under 30 ounces unloaded, the FN 509 Midsize Tactical positions itself as an ideal option for concealed carry, home defense, and duty use. It’s midsize frame, which enables users to get a full-hand purchase, plus the added mass of the 4.5-inch threaded barrel assembly and improved, duty-rated trigger, provides unprecedented controllability and recoil management in a pistol that is easily concealed.
A 15-round magazine is standard, but the handgun will accept 24-round FN 509 magazines, providing increased capacity. The 4.5-inch threaded barrel is coldhammer-forged and suppressor-ready with 1⁄2x28-inch thread pitch, all housed within a 4-inch slide. The slide is cut for FN’s patented Low-Profile OpticsMounting System, compatible with more than ten miniature red-dot optics. Three-dot Trijicon green tritium night sights are suppressor-height to co-witness with any compatible optic. SRP: $799-$1,069. Available in both matte black and FN-signature flat dark earth (FDE). SRP: $799-$1,069.

FTI, Inc. recently introduced Tetra Gun Action Blaster II & Spray II aerosol sprays, both of which replace the original namesake formulas. Action Blaster II is a non-residue cleaner-degreaser that blasts away fouling; Spray II adds Tetra Gun lubricant technology to its cleaning functionality, providing an all-in-one aerosol product that cleans, lubricates, and protects (CLP). The propellant and solvent evaporate after use, but Spray II leaves a light, non-oily coating of Tetra fluoropolymer lubricant on the gunmetal. In addition, Spray II provides protection from corrosion. Tetra Gun Action Blaster II & Spray II are available in 10-ounce cans. SRP: $11.99.
