Ergonomics & Controls

FN’s ergonomics on the FNX-45 family are notable: textured polymer grip panels, a naturally low bore axis, and enhanced controls make follow-up shots more manageable. The enhanced controls on this Tactical model—extended slide catch and enlarged safety—improve manipulation under stress and with gloved hands. The threaded barrel allows easy attachment of suppressors or muzzle devices depending on local regulations.

Caliber and Performance

Chambered in .45 ACP, the FN FNX-45 TACTICAL [BLK] provides proven stopping performance favored for close-quarters defensive roles. While .45 ACP typically produces more felt recoil than 9mm, the pistol’s weight distribution and grip geometry help tame that impulse for controlled, accurate follow-up shots during defensive drills or precision practice.

Optic integration via the included HOLOSUN HE507C Red Dot Sight accelerates target acquisition and supports fast, accurate shot placement. The setup is ideal for shooters who want a ready-to-shoot optic solution straight from the listing. The pistol comes in good condition with a bit of wear—see photos for details.
