FN America is a company on the move. Just a few years ago, its handgun options were limited, but that has changed dramatically as the Columbia, South Carolina, firm continues to expand its lineup. Recently, FN’s engineering team has been developing and launching handguns with a variety of cutting-edge features, sizes and chamberings—for everything from concealed carry to competition.
The newest of the bunch is the FN 510, a handgun that combines the proven attributes of the 509 series of handguns in the powerful 10mm Auto chambering. I tested the fully accessorized 510 Tactical variant.
I should warn you at the outset that I am an unabashed fan of the 10mm Auto and have been since Sonny Crockett carried a Bren Ten handgun so chambered in the early seasons of “Miami Vice.” And Jeff Cooper’s proselytizing of the cartridge didn’t hurt.
