Kimber's and FN's

[XDinmyXJ]

OK so since I got my job back I think I am gonna get a new gun. May be a pistol, may be a rifle but I would like to get into a Kimber or an FN. What should I look for in an FN? I'm pretty set on an Ultra Carry II if I go with a kimber.

I too was set on the Ultra Carry II, until I had the opportunity to pick up a Kimber Tactical Ultra II; talk about a sweet pistol!

I love it, you cannot go wrong with a Kimber IMO - as for the FN; I've never owned one so I can't add any value there.

I love my Kimber CDP Pro!

Congrats on getting your job back . I've been EDC'ing a Kimber Tactical Ultra II for the past 4 years and love it, great guns.

No opinion or knowledge on the FN.

U can see my choice, but also am biased cause haven't owned an FNH. Have you you read this thread yet https://www.indianagunowners.com/forums/handguns/91196-fnp-45_a_love_story.html... little bit of a review on the FNP-45, doesn't seem biased just an honest review.

Kimber STS ultra carry II (kind of one of those unique guns, put together by kimber like a one week made special.)

I love my CDP PRO II. Don't know much about the FN, they do look interesting though.

Don't know about the FN, but I shot a Kimber for the first time this weekend and LOVED it! It was immediately added to the wish list. I'm not a great shot by any stretch, but I grouped all eight rounds of the second magazine within about an 1" to an 1 1/4" at 15 yardsc(I was shooting a full size though, not the ultra carry). Whether that's normal for you I don't know, but it's definitely not for me! I was very impressed.

Anyhow, based off that experience, I vote for the Kimber!

Owned both...still own FN 5.7x28. Got rid of Kimber because I'm not a Government style lover but was an extremely nice gun...shot well was many years ago and I don't even remember which model. Owned it for about a week had the chance to shoot it only 1 time. Was a full size and stainless. Had a good offer and sold it. As far as the FN check out the one in the for sale section. Great price for an excellent gun with ammo included. Good luck with either, both are great guns and comparable in price. Kimber up close and personal. FN reach out and touch someone!

I recently purchased a FNP9. So far I have around 170 rounds ran through it. It has cycled every ammo, I have tried so far with no problems. If you like the Xd, you will like the FN. In fact I like the FN more so then my Xd service. It's lighter, higher capacity, and has a slightly better trigger IMO. The FNP is decocker only, just as a heads up. Unless you go with the new FNX, it is decocker/safety. I can say I'm more then happy with it. I paid $529 OTD, mine is the stainless model. Bought it from Bob, at Bite the Bullet. Not much help on the Kimbers, I have no knowledge of them.
