Is the FnH 45 Tactical a good gun?

FNH apparently applied some fairy dust, because the 45 Tactical doesn’t feel like that at all. The grip is not much if any bigger than a competitor’s 9mm. It also features interchangeable backstraps, with what I would call the industry’s best system. With a simple press of a punch in one hole, the back strap slides right off.

Are there any problems with the Cybergun FNX-45?

The biggest problem I can see with the FNX is the fact that the hopup unit and inner barrel is held onto the outer barrel via a spring, tugging the outer barrel will stretch out the spring and you will have to buy a new “hopup return spring”.

Are there any FNH pistols on the market?
