The FN 509 CC Edge XL, a 9mm caliber and double-action firearm, offers magazine capacity options of 10 or 12/15 rounds. Weighing 25.5 ounces, with a barrel length of 4.2 inches and an overall length of 7.5 inches, this model stands out with its balanced and ergonomic design. It features a height of 4.8 inches, a width of 1.35 inches, a trigger pull of 4.5 to 6.7 pounds, and a sight radius of 5.41 inches.
The main feature of this model is the FN compensator, which reduces barrel lift by 25%, thus offering a more stable shooting experience with notable recoil reduction. Equipped with FN's patented Low-Profile Optics Mounting System, this pistol offers increased versatility, allowing for the easy addition of most red dot sighting devices. The flat-faced trigger ensures a clean break at approximately 5.6 pounds, enhancing the precision of the shot.
In terms of accuracy and speed, the hammer-forged barrel with a target crown ensures exceptional precision. The high-endurance striker and the polished chamber and feed ramp ensure reliability and smooth operation. Speed is a key aspect of the FN 509 CC Edge XL, with features such as weighted magazine base plates for quick reloads and an oversized, knurled magazine release button.
For versatility and control, this model is suitable for ambidextrous use with a slide stop and features a long-lasting TiN barrel finish for improved lubrication. It comes with a ballistic case, four MRD mounting plates, two interchangeable backstraps, two 15-round magazines and one 12-round magazine (or three 10-round magazines), an owner’s manual, and a locking device.
Its easy maintenance and field stripping capabilities, combined with the advanced features, certainly make it an attractive choice for enthusiasts and professionals alike. The FN 509 CC Edge XL aims to redefine the standards for tactical handguns, offering users an unparalleled shooting experience.
