Thought you guys might like the new FNP-45 Military

[Templar]

Brett from FNH came down to the last Vickers Advanced Carbine and Pistol Class in South Hill, VA and brought along some pretty trick toys.

I was really impressed with the new FNP-45 Military. It has a threaded barrel, adjustable backstrap, and is designed to accomodate a Trijicon Docter Optic red dot sight on the slide. The tritium sights are set high so that you may use them with a suppressor, and they will co-witness with the Docter Optic.

Noticed the ejected casings next to my right elbow in both pictures, and the lack of muzzle rise? Extremely controllable and accurate, and we flogged it to the point of needing gloves to come in contact with the slide, and it never missed a beat.

I want one!

Man that is sweet you luck bastard......again.......
I wonder what the access panel looking thing is on the top of the slide? any idea?

[Templar]

The access panel is for the Trijicon Docter Optic red dot, which will co-witness with the raised irons.

7.0 MOA Docter® Red Dot Sight
The DOCTER® Sight is a red-dot reflex sight that easily
mounts in tandem with the Trijicon ACOG® Scopes. The
compact tubeless design allows for a low weight without sacrificing
performance.

The DOCTER® Sight offers a large field of view due to its
low magnification and is firmly factory-adjusted parallax-free to 40
yards. This adjustment ensures that parallax-related aiming errors
are minimized over a large distance range.

The optics consists of two firmly connected glass lenses. The
functionally important coating reflecting the aiming dot is applied
to one of the inside surfaces which provides maximum protection
against scratches. Additionally, the outer surfaces of the lenses
are antireflection coated with resistant layers.

All components and mounting elements exposed to mechanical stress
are made of high-grade materials, such as stainless steel and hard-
anodized aluminum alloys.

DOCTER® Sight is water-resistant, but not waterproof.
The DOCTER® Sight remains usable even if it is exposed to
moisture. The electronic and mechanical components are so designed
that they can be exposed to water.

Can it be cocked and locked - or is it still just a decocker lever?
