Default Range report on my FN Herstal FNP-9M

I took both it and my Taurus model 85 .38 out to the range today and shot both. I put 45 rounds through the FNP-9M and 50 rounds through the Taurus .38.

It was colder than I had hoped and I was shivering a bit, so I didn't shoot as accurately as I otherwise could have.

The FNP-9M had no FTF or FTE. I thought at first that it was shooting off to the left a bit (it has fixed sights), but I did the same on the Taurus .38.

I only had one 1 inch bullseye hit in 45 rounds from 10 yards on the FNP-9M and the rest were scattered to the left. I did have a few close to bullseye.

In general, I think I shot the 2" Taurus .38 better than I did the 9MM. I am anxious to get out again once it warms up to see how I can shoot without the cold hands and shivering.

I'll try to post a pic or two of some of the targets later if I think about it.

Default Re: Range report on my FN Herstal FNP-9M

As promised, here a the best of three targets for each gun. The first one should be the 9MM and the second the .38.
