The FN 509 LS Edge delivers competition-grade accuracy in a striker-fired platform engineered for serious shooters. This full-size 9mm pistol combines FN's military heritage with modern features that enhance both precision and versatility.
What Makes This Different
The LS Edge variant incorporates a fully-supported match chamber and enhanced trigger system that reduces pull weight to approximately 4.5-5.5 pounds with a crisp break. Unlike standard striker-fired pistols, this model features an extended 5-inch cold hammer-forged barrel that maximizes velocity and accuracy potential. The optics-ready slide accepts popular red dot sights without requiring adapter plates for most mounting systems.
Key Features
- 5-inch match-grade barrel with fully-supported chamber for enhanced accuracy

This pistol excels in competitive shooting environments where accuracy and reliability determine results. The extended sight radius and match-grade barrel contribute to consistent groupings at extended ranges. Law enforcement agencies appreciate the no-snag profile and immediate readiness without external safety manipulation. The robust polymer frame withstands temperature extremes while maintaining dimensional stability.
