    FNX 9 comes in Wednesday, need accessories help!

    I purchased an FNX 9mm!!! Thanks FLASH!!! I am in need of some input on some accessories...

    1.) Sights: I would like some tritium night sights. Should I go with the Ameriglo's, or should I get some green Glow On brand sight paint? I really want tritium as this will be my primary carry until I pick up a .45 Tactical or a FiveseveN. Any other good suggestions?

    2.) Speed loaders: Which brand speed loaders are a good fit with FNX9 magazines?

    3.) Most important Holster: I need a good IWB CC holster/ IWB CC mag pouches. I have looked at the Crossbreed Supertuck (expensive, very nice, also has mag carriers currently available),

    and White's Holsters Maxtuck (cheaper, very nice, and has the ability to interchange the kydex for the other pistols I am in the process of acquiring). Any other solid suggestions?

    4.) Drop Leg Holster: I would also like to get a nice drop leg holster able to fit the FNX 9, .45 Tactical, and FiveseveN for SHTF use.

    5.) Shoulder Holster: Also a horizontal or maybe an adjustable cant shoulder holster for all 3 pistol platforms, for SHTF use.

    6.) Ammo: Which 9mm ammo should I look into to stockpile?

    7.) Cleaning agents and lubricants: What is the best/ won't hurt the finish?

    8.) Anything else I am forgetting?

    Thanks in advance! Any input is greatly appreciated!

    I have the following for my FNX9. CLP and Weapon Shield cleaner/lubes, I have a legdrop holster i purchased from OpsGear.com and i have a OWB Blackhawk HK P30 holster (just wrote a review on it tonight), I also have the Maglula pistol loader for loading mags. Ammo wise, i use pretty much any cheap FMJ 115gr rounds for target days, and i use Winchester PDX1 JHP 147gr for home defense.

    Might wanna check out N82tactical holsters, Family owned and Local for me. Great guys and they stand by their products. Large size works perfect with FNX9. +1 for the Lula. I also think Safariland has a drop that cross fits the fnp and fnx. Maybe try policehq.

    I agree with him on everything, but will add that Safariland 6005/6005 for the FNP-45 will work with an FNX albeit the FNX will be loose. You may need to open the bottom of the holster up some to allow for the threaded barrel (I'm not sure if they will open it up for the threaded barrel like Bladetech does, but it would be worth asking).

    My self-defense ammo is 124 gr +p speer gold dots

    Congratulations on your new pistol. I have one and love it.
    The UpLULA speed loader works quite well. Will not load the last round, but I am not sure any speedloader will.

    My FNX likes Geco (not geico) fmj for practice. Inexpensive when you can find it, but very clean and I have not had one single misfire or failure to eject.

    Meant to mention also. the BladeTech OWB polymer holster for the FNH 9 fits the FNX 9 perfectly. Not a "close" fit, a perfect fit. Not a true retention holster, but the tension is easily adjustable.

    Thanks Skye. Welcome to the forum! .

    I bought a UPLULA loader. Mine does load the last round.

    I am leaning towards a White Hat Holsters Max Tuck. I have contacted the company, but have yet to receive a reply, which is disconcerting. I like their concept more than the Crossbreed Holsters Super Tuck. The price and interchangeability of the White's is also why I am more interested in their product.

    Thanks for the recommendations!

    P.S. Due to a cool off period, I finally go to pick it up tomorrow!
