For instance, FN ships the gun with a small soft-case that features elastic loops for securely carrying both the gun and all the included magazines. Speaking of which, the FN 509 LS Edge doesn’t just include three magazines in the box, it also ships with a plethora of other accessories that shooters will find very useful.
But literally, no production handguns include that many magazines so three is pretty damn generous. Personally, five magazines for a pistol is a minimum and 10 is ideal. So while they might not be the $10 el-cheapo Korean magazines certain other guns use, you won’t need to buy too many additional ones for competition use. These magazines are propriety to 509-series handguns, but the good news is that FN includes three of them in the box with the gun.
They also feature bright orange followers making it simple to determine if the magazine is completely empty even in low light. The magazines also feature witness holes at the back so shooters know how much ammunition is remaining in them. The 509 LS Edge ships with three of these 17-round magazines. Speaking of ammo, the Edge feeds these previously affordable 9mm rounds from steel-bodied 17-round magazines that feature oversized polymer baseplates for ease of handling. This one, in particular, is chambered in NATO-standard 9mm parabellum.

But it lacks that certain je ne sais quoi of FN’s other designs. It’s perfectly reliable, offers solid accuracy, and isn’t terribly expensive. ( )- There are some guns that until you shoot them, you never knew you wanted or needed them, and the new FN 509 LS Edge is a prime example of this.ĭon’t get me wrong, the FN 509’s core design is very competent.
