The FN FNP Series pistol is a double-action/single-action, Double Action Only (DAO) or Single Action Only (SAO), semi-automatic, polymer-framed pistol manufactured by FNH USA in Columbia, S.C., a division of Fabrique Nationale de Herstal. The pistol debuted in early 2006[1] in several varieties and is chambered for three calibers.

Contents

All variations of the pistols include ambidextrous decocking levers and a reversible magazine release, as well as an integrated tactical accessory rail.

According to FNH USA, the FNP line of pistols is the only polymer-framed autoloading pistol on the market (as of its introduction) with fully replaceable frame rails; this allows the pistol to be rebuilt after extensive firing, thereby extending service life.[1]

The FNP Series pistol is produced in four basic models with several different variations on each model. Each of the four models, the FNP-45, the FNP-40, the FNP-9 and the FNP-9m, can come in the following variations:

  • Double-action only
  • Single-action only
  • Double/single action
  • Stainless steel slide
  • Black slide
  • Night sights
  • Standard sights

Note: The FNP-45 is not available in DAO (double-action only) or SAO (single-action only) as of January 2007.
