I have had a few of them now and they are fantastic handguns. You also can't beat their customer service. I bought a used one once that had a tiny crack in trigger housing and had to send it back. They came to my door, picked it up and had it back to me in less than a week and a half at no cost to me.
My only complaints were that the placement of the safety/de-cocker was totally in the wrong place for my hands (YMMV), so I would de-cock the gun with a thumbs-high grip in the middle of shooting (not good).
The back of the sides of the grip weren't really textured well if you do a lot of shooting and your hands start sweating - it was a little slippery, but it never slipped out of my hand while shooting or holstering/unholstering.
I miss both of the FNP-9s I used to own - they were good guns (reliable/accurate).
It felt a lot like an HK USP 9mm that was made for folks with normal hands (save the de-cocker/safety placement).

i have a fnp 40. really like it. the double action pull is kind of long but you can get use to it. the single action pull is good.
i think it is a well made gun. maybe more for the military or leo arena due to the long double action trigger pull - safety.
shoots smooth and accurate.
the mag are about $36 + shipping. they are $49 at bass pro.
let me know if you want one. i may be able to get you one at a really good price. what price are you looking at now?

Have FN's in .40 and .45 and both are great shooters. The .45 is to big for CC but the .40 is just about right.
The FNP is a beauty!
I had an FNP9 USG and my experience mirrored EZ Bake's. I shoot thumbs high and because of the design of the safety/decocker on that model it was very easy for a high thumb during recoil or a hard downward sweep of the safety on a draw to turn into a decock.
If the USG had an HK style safety I would have kept that one and bought another because it fit like a glove and was wonderfully accurate.

I've been considering one of these, and don't know anyone that has one, so thanks to all of you for the great comments!
