I've had some experience with firearms. I'm looking to purchase my first handgun. Came across tha FNS-9 and liked the ambidextrous ability it has. I'm left handed and my wife right. This was a big plus for me. Any opinions on this weapon. Also does anyone have any favorite of ammo and grain for there guns? Thanks
Grain? I kinda prefer wheat, over oats and rye. Barley makes the best soup...and whiskey.
And Hornady makes good ammunition, but so do several other manufacturers.
Do you want to know about bullet weight? Or about powder-charge weight? Or really about wheat versus oats or rye?
Please be somewhat more specific.
To the absolute and utter amazement of the regulars here, I am going to forgo my usual piling on with additional "snark".
Currently, I'm loading both my nightstand Beretta FS 92 Centurion and my CCW SIG P290 with the same 9 mm ammo.
The last of my supply of Remington Golden Saber JHP (Jacketed Hollow Point) 124 grain +P (higher pressure, higher velocity).
I plan on trying Hornady Critical Defense next. I won't be using any more +P in the 15 oz (unloaded) SIG. Kinda hot for an old guy.
OK, you guys just KNEW I just HAD to sneak in SOME snark. :smt1099

If you are considering a quality weapon that fits you and suits your intended use, why would you need "options"? Re. ammo, most any factory defense load will work just fine. Personally I prefer Winchester Silver Tip.

A grain is a unit of measure for weight, where one ounce equals 437.5 grains. a 115 grain bullet is a frog hair over a quarter ounce in weight, or for the more metrically inclined, about 7.45 grams.
