He said I need your serial number...I continued I on FN military pricing problem and on at least 10 FN weapon as I tried to remove my weapon light..He asked me 7 time for the serial number...I finally said SLOW THE F DOWN IM BREAKING DOWN THIS PISTOL... Gave him the serial number weapon 12 years old...( i got weapon 50 years old i bought new,,still shoot fine) FN CSR SAID WE DONT HAVE ANY TOOLS HERE TO WORK ON A GUN THST OLD..I SAID GOT ANY IDEAS I CAN FIX HERE...FN NO I DONT KNOW...SENT IT TO MID WEST GUNS...I ENDED FU AND HUNG UP...Wasn't too long ago I needed help with a new P90 built in Belgium...the FN crew sent me a shipping label...The weapon was bavk to me in weeks... WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED AT FN IN SOUTH CAROLINA...BUNCH OF DEI HIRES OR JUST TYPICAL REPLY FROM THE I DONT KNOW GENERATION? MY LAST CALL AND PURCHASE FROM FN... BRYANT US MILITARY RETIRED

Bought a new FN 2022 High Power. First time on range with factory ammo. End up with two big chips in the dark green earth finish on the slide top halfway between the ejection port and front sight. They said either bad ammo or limp wristing was the likely cause. Nothing they could do. I asked for suggestions for touching up and they said the had none. They don’t care. You would think their finish would be more durable for a $1,300 pistol. This has never happened to my other brand name 9’s. Very disappointing.

I bought a FN AMERICA FN509 LS EDGE #GKS0177125 ; 9MM Semiautomatic; 66-100843 from Barnett's in Hampton Tn, they have since gone out of business. They sold the gun as new at $1392.85. Once we realized the gun was used, I contacted Barnett's who said I shouldn't have taken the gun apart to clean it!! Then told me to contact SportsSouth who sold Barnett's the gun. SportsSouth sent me to FN the manufacturer. FN says the gun is not used and sent me to our dealer. Our FFL verified, and said he would be glad to testify to that fact, that the gun is used. I wish I could attach the pictures to this review

I tried contacting FN America multiple times about the FNS "service bulletin". It took weeks to get any sort of response and, when they did, their best offer was to replace the original machined part with the skeletonized 509 striker prone to failure. Meanwhile, for slightly more, their enclosed design is sold on Midwest and clearly stated as compatible with the FNS platform. Between this and dozens of other serious reports of horrible service/QC...I can't comprehend why our military would source anything from this company.

Can't get ahold of any one to many issues with there products

Send info in 2 separate times with all that was needed. The 2024 rebate is a scam... left multiple messeges and emails. I hope someone sues them for this behavior. Had bought 2 so that's alot of money I'm suppose to get back. Rebate is a scam so don't could on it. Got rebates fine from other companies but FN one is a scam and guess trying to make their numbers look better. Well u lost a customer and anyone I talk to and show them. Hope karma comes back in end with ur lies and scams.

I purchased a new FN HIGH POWER from Scheels $1,200 took it to the range next day and put about 200 rounds through it, I could not get through a single MAG with out multiple Malfunctions, ( JAM O MATIC ). a few stove pipes and it would never lock back after the last round. so I called FN and got a hold of customer service, C.J. he didn't really seem to care said "your using the wrong Ammo" I was using Winchester white box 124gr and CCI 115gr I have quite a few gun that have used the same ammo with no malfunctions, he suggested NATO spec ammo? he also said to "just keep shooting it and it will work its self out!? not great customer service. I took the gun back for a refund ( THANK YOU SCHEELS ) and replaced it with a CZ-75 and went back to the range next day and used the same AMMO with ZERO malfunctions!! so poor customer service coupled with poor reliability, first FN last FN!!!!

I purchased a brand new FN High power on 12/12/22, I took it out shooting for the very first time on 12/25/22.. Everything was fine for the first 60 rounds. After that both of the magazines that came with the gun completely stopped locking the slide to the rear when empty and when ejecting the last round from the chamber. A friend of mine has the FN High power also and let me try his mags, Oddly enough both of his mags ran and locked to the rear for 100+ rounds no problem. I don't know if i just got a bad batch of mags or what. It is listed as covered under warranty and registered on their website but I have not been able to get any help or information at all about it. I opened a warranty case (Case # 00029796) and provided several videos and photos showing that both mags do not hold the slide open when empty as they should. I paid just over twelve hundred bucks only for both of the mags to not operate properly. I went to a rather large gun shop hoping to find a spare mag and they didn't have any but they expressed interest in the FN High power stating that they have not seen one in person and asked If I would be willing to let them shoot it on their range after the holidays so they could see how they liked it so they could then place orders with FN for their shop. I have not taken the gun to them yet since both magazines do not function the way they should and letting them test it out with faulty mags is not the right thing to do as the gun is in perfect order It's just the magazines that are bad. I have opened a warranty case and sent several emails and have not heard anything at all back. That's pretty rough when you spend well over a grand on a firearm, get 2 bad magazines and zero customer support help or information. I will be updating/revsing this review if/when I hear anything back.
