Every time I see one of these, I can't help but feel my wallet getting lighter... I'll have to have one some day..
What a wonderful gun!

whats sweet is that it comes with 15rd mags and 2 mounts for different red dots to co-witness with the sights. the bag is pretty kick ass too, its kinda like a fancy hk bag.

It may be the second FN pistol I buy. That is sweet! Not a fan of the other FNPs or FNXs, but that piece is very cool. My buddy got his two weeks ago, and it shot pretty sweet.

Took it to the range yesterday. I'm very happy with my purchase. My buddy with the Kimber couldn't make it, but I compared it to my Glock 30, and well, there's no comparison. I'm going to have to pick up a 2nd one in black.

I was just about to reply about how high those sites are in the second photo but I have to keep reminding myself that this puppy is factory made to go with a can. I am so jealous though. One of these days...one of these days. Congrats bro. Seriously.

Not trying to thread hijack but here are photos of the black one as requested. I like the silver-gray stitching on the logo, it looks elegant on the black. It sure is hard to photograph a black pistol though. All the features just disappear.    Family portrait:
