Just got an FNS today with tritium.

Range report to follow ASAP.

Any holster recommendations?
OWB please.

Welcome to the FN'club! Very accurate pistols if your sighs are on right. Also, trigger job cleans things up very well. I had a kydex holster made that is super nice. Southern Illinois custom kydex.

I'll take a look for them.

I see Safariland has their basic ALS for $39 on Amazon Prime.
Might have to order it up. Easy return if I don't like it.

You should be very pleased with it. I have an FNS40 compact, and love it.

Not sure what your looking for in a holster, but I carry mine in a Liittle Foxx as my edc without complaint.

I find the compact to be very accurate. The full size, in 9mm should be more so.
Top right is 10 rounds at approx 25'

Nice shooting.

Ive shot one of FN's testers a few years back. Was nice.
Hopefully in the AM, I'll get out to the range.

Ordered the 6378 ALS. Will be here Sun.

Picked an FNS 9 full size and a Walther PPQ M2 9 about 3 months ago. Both great shooters. 2 solid guns. The Walther is smoother right out of the box, but the FN is breaking in nicely and catching up.

I picked up the safariland GLS holster (OWB w/ paddle). Being a lefty, the choices are slim.

Be safe, Have fun, and enjoy shooting.

It was more gun than shooter... Lol
(other two groups are: bottom right - wife's new Sig p238', bottom left - rapid fire out of the FN)

Be interested in a range report on the 9 - I highly debated it over the .40

Finally got to the range with the FNS.
First 200 rds through without a hitch as expected.

50 freedom XTP 124
50 Perfecta 115
50 PMC 115
50 win NATO 124

I'm liking it. The trigger will hopefully get better with time. Both mine and it's break in. A little smoother would be nice. But it's not bad.

I'm liking the Safariland ALS holster. It's very nice. The release lever could be a bit larger though. Might get their non locking polymer option as well.

I also bought a Galco M11X magazine carrier.
Very nice as well holds them with excellent yet manageable retention.

I carried my FNS-9 in a Blade Tech Nano for a year. It worked well but felt a little heavy after a while. Simply Rugged Holsters are really nice for leather. I got that for my revolver but might get one for the FNS too.
