    is there an extended slide lock?

    Why do you want one? It is designed so you can have a high grip on the gun without hitting the slidelock. Putting a larger slidelock could result in locking your slide back before your mag is empty.

      I have incredibly small hands, I like the FNP over my sig as I can decock without having to move my firing hand. I Just can't reach the slide lock.

            i have to adjust my grip with all my Sigs when using strong hand for decocking; i just accept it. my w german Sigs have everything else going for them though.

            no... not a bad price.

              As soon as safariland gets their butts in gear this will replace my W. German P226 in .40 as a work gun.

                  Galco makes a nice holster I got one for mine, but I am handicapped (lefty). LOL

                    Nice buy, I am looking at the FNP 9 myself for my next gun. I think the FN guns are starting to get noticed by the gun community in general as I am seeing more regular posts about them.

                      I'm looking for a good duty holster. I've become pretty accustomed to the safariland 070's and they're a few months out still.

                          I appreciate it. I like galco leather holsters. Have one for each of my pistols. I'll end up with one for this too.

                              Are you trying to use it to lock the slide open, or to release it?
