Bruh, I first watched the video and saw the optic and saw the covering thinking that was the optic. I was thinking I'm not watching this BS. I'm gonna get a Holosun. Waited and was blown away. That optic is SICK. Very slick optic for the price ya really can beat it. Thank you so much!!!
I have both and it’s a great optic
I haven’t had any issues with my recoil rod spring but it does feel weak so I went ahead and ordered a SIG P-250 spring.
Hope it works.
Great video here, I handled this firearm just recently and thought it was a nice gun.
It is on my short list to purchase and go to the range for some time.
Be well
Thank you! Hope you stop by the channel again soon.
I now have over 2200 rounds through mine. It’s running flawlessly with Remington Golden bullets and CCI Blazers. These are over 1200 fps. It doesn’t like SV anything. I have replaced the guide rod and spring. And I do have a red dot on it.
what is sv
@@yankeecowboy Standard velocity rounds which are around 1050 fps or so. The weight of the red dot requires the extra power to cycle the slide.
@@tombazemore1098 ah got ya lol
Where to find this new rod and spring?
@@syclone1012 Taylor tactical
not gonna lie im really leaning towards this as my first handgun. I'm putting a range up and although theres some distance between the neighbors, I dont want to ring out 100 shots of 9mm in a day, plus its more expensive I'd rather shoot 22s. I've got like some 1000 rounds of 22 sitting around right now lol. That being said i've never conceal carried, do you think this gun could work in that application or am I better off just getting a decent compact 9mm like a cz or a sar9c?
You gotta be fast to get the Nick Taylor Guide Rod, soon as I got a notification I ordered it online, last Friday and came in today, what a difference with the Sig spring.
Yes feels like it’s sprung correctly now, just wish I can get mine to run 100%. It’s been a little better but still after that first round it doesn’t chamber. I think I’m going to leave my 4 mags loaded to maybe weaken the spring a bit
@@yankeecowboy I tried 4 different Ammo, the problem I had was FTE, since then I use the FEDERAL RANGE PACK .22 LR 40 GR HV LRN, also for some reason I have to have a good strong grip on the front grip. No more Issues now. I also run the Federal in my Kriss Vector.
@@Infidel67 I do run federal mainly but maybe I got spoiled on .22 and loosened my grip? I’ll give it a try
Think I may try that optic.
I’ve put over 8k rounds threw mine in 3 weeks it’s a tack driver with the holosun but after its shot a few hundred times every time mine want go into battery annoying can’t wait to get this mod for mine cheap enough to try it and if it’s not true it want bother me
The upgrade is well worth it but mine still has a few issues to be worked out. Love this pistol though
Could you share with me what screws did you use to mount this optics? I found no screw is applicable to mine. Thanks!
@@liwinston I used the screws that came with my optic
@@yankeecowboy Thanks for the feedback!
Did this solve the slide release issue? Make a big difference?
I have a question. Did you change the front and rear sights? The original ones are black. The ones on your gun are colored. Could you please respond if you can change the sights . I have been looking at this gun but just wanted to understand better all the upgrades you made to this gun. Thanks for your help
I painted the front dot the rear is as it came, I thought I mentioned it in the video why I painted the front dot?
Mine is actually hanging up on the hammer. I cocked the slide and it stayed back. I polished the hammer and it no longer hangs up but it still cannot seat a round. Had a feeling there would be a better spring out there
Yeah the p250 spring is much better
Where your iron sights flat black or are there the dots? Mine came with no dots on the iron sights. And I can't find any replacements
Flat black I painted the orange dot on front
@yankeecowboy ok thank you for the clarification
Have you had any issues with the red dot coming off? Ive had mine fly off twice now, going to try red loctite ...
No not at all
Im wonderung , this model comes with plates for all size res dots could the weight of the red dot like a dot for a full size pistol vs a dot for a micr the heavier weight causing the failure to feed issues?
Idk because I’ve seen heavier ones run fine 🤷🏻♂️
I have a fn 502 mdr with a holosun eps full size model and it fails to feed on the second shot with most ammo all the time, I use cci 36 grain hollow point varmint and it runs non stop with that ammo, or cci poly coat 40 grain. There is a extractor aftermarket part by a company tandermoss I might try that or just get a Taurus tx 22 compact lol I'm not impressed with the 502 so far myself
@@davidwarring1572 wow really? Yeah mine ran line a sewing machine until I modded it but I’m determined to get this running reliably. I did hear about that extractor and I’m going to try that next. Thanks for the info my friend!
I noticed the front sight is red. Did you change it or just added some red paint. I wish you would have said that you removed the stock bottom plate on the 504 Votatu! I watched the videos several time before I seen the plate in the box.
Painted it orange, my bad I thought I mentioned the rail mount. I may do a dedicated video on it as I have another brand new in the box
@@yankeecowboy I have a new 502, just haven't been to the range yet. I want to break in the 502 before installing the Votayu 504. I do have the 504 in hand.
@@TheFishMenace it’s a great red dot
Bought a SilencerCo Sparrow suppressor today.. now i wait!
@@TheFishMenace nice!
Where are you finding the guide rod? Seems to be out of stock everywhere
I got mine from Taylor tactical
@@yankeecowboy they are out of stock. Already checked there
@@AndyKimmerle-kx5mf ah yeah I just seen that. They should have them back very soon just keep checking.
Thanks for the video. I have pretty much the same setup with the same red dot and the pistol was doing the same thing not going fully into battery after being fired 150 rounds plus. I just ordered the Apex stainless steel guide rod as well. I was wondering if the guide rod alone will fix that without the sig spring. I saw on forums the sig spring will limit the types of ammo you can use.
I’m going tomorrow to try just the guide rod and stock spring. I had a few issues with p250 spring but could just be break in. I’ll be doing a update video
Sounds good! I'll be on the lookout for that video.@@yankeecowboy
@@Victor-tc3de thank you and make sure to subscribe to the channel please
I’m not really good on buying from china, I know sometimes it’s in your best interest, but I try to buy American as much as I can. I also realize that a vast amount of weapons are better made in other countries. So until America makes the best weapons, I guess a lot of gun owners will buy from the better companies? Just my thoughts on the situation.
99% of American gun manufacturers do business and source the stuff from over seas, I agree but when you need your weapon to function the way you want then you have to get it from the only game in town. FN herstal is a Belgium company and makes guns for USA brands like browning at one point, it’s just how things are done these days. Look at CT was the gun capitol of the world at one point and this government drove 99% of our founding gun manufacturers out of this state.
The FN 502 is made in Germany by Umarex
@@garys7976 yes I stated that in my first video I did. Umurex makes good stuff in my opinion.
You don’t have a threaded barrel. Doesn’t it come stock with threaded barrel how did you change that?
It’s the MRD model I live in restricted state unfortunately. The threaded barrel version is the tactical model
@@yankeecowboy I wonder if I could buy a different barrel for it I prefer a flush look
@@milky7550 I’m sure you can buy the non threaded
Does the guide rod and spring work in the tactical 502? I hope you got out and used it as modified. How was it?
@@kerrilazz5487 it will fit, it works better than stock but I’m having issues with the first round after I fire it’s not putting another round in battery. I have to tinker with it
Isn't it amazing that these companies make these amazing guns then put shit components in that really wouldn't cost that much more to just use decent parts in the first place?!
your 100% right I had to change the spring on a buddy's 1911 chambered in 22 it also had a spring that belonged in a big pen not a gun 😂
There are so many good guns now it’s really difficult to know what’s best. It’s people like you that do an honest review to let the public know what to look for. Good review Yankee, keep em coming!
@@tomweaver4908 I always will give my honest thoughts and this fn502 is incredible and that red dot is definitely worth twice what it cost. Thank you I’ll be trying my best to post once a week at a minimum.
I've had the 502 for around 5 weeks now. I haven't had any functional issues except when racking the slide manually the stock guide rod and spring felt and sounded line it was binding slightly. I installed the Apex guide rod only with the stock spring and it's much smoother. I'm running the Holosun 407k green dot and I haven't had any issues including when dropping the slide stop on a topped off mag. Most of what I've seen in forums and the FN 502 FB group is that most say to replace the guide rod and forgo the Sig spring because of the many issues that arise from standard and lower velocity rounds plus they say it hammers the inside of the slide when it goes back into battery. Just a heads up of things you may want to be aware of when shooting the next time. Maybe a follow up video?
@@garys7976 I just took it out this weekend and I had a few failure to ejects. Also experience light to no primer strikes. I may see if spring needs to break in it try the stock spring with my stainless guide rod. Yes after another range trip or to I’ll be doing update video for sure.
You need to update this gun with other parts because out of the box the FN 502 is garbage. Mine didn’t shoot from day one. Parts are extremely hard to get and customer service is the worst. Stay away from this gun or like me you will be sorry.
I did put other parts in . what parts do you suggest?
