  • FN 502 Tactical Review
    bit.ly/3h1WcNj
    I don't get excited about .22s like that.
    Don't get me wrong, they're super fun when you're shooting them, but I don't lose sleep waiting for the release of a new .22.
    When I finally got the gun in my hands, I immediately turned into Ralphie from a Christmas story when he finally got his bb gun:
    The 502 Tactical is pure overkill for a .22, and I love it.

    I was born with one hand, and faced so much adversity growing up. I thought I wasn’t gonna be able to take care of myself as a man and my family. I was denied my childhood dream of going to the military. Watching you has motivated me to get into the 2nd amendment and I recently shot my Glock 23 .40cal and got bulls eye with my one hand handicap. You showing us it’s possible through your channel continues to inspire and motivate me to be the best version of myself and to stay focused on my purpose. I hope to shoot with you one day with my one hand disability to show others there’s no excuses despite what you’re born with. Much Respect Colion and thank you for being that inspiration!

But I'm a glock fan and they have a back slide plate attachment that makes it a mini charging handle and there is a type of device I forget the name but to draw the weapon you first push down to charge the weapon then you draw ready to go. There's also the roni conversion kit that might could be of benefit but anyway just wanted to try and help out if possible.

    I've got the TX22. I've found that reliability is almost an issue only with ammo. Yeah, if you never want to clean your gun, it will eventually fail. It is a .22LR after all. That being said, I took my pistol to the range on 4 separate occasions, shot ~500 rounds per visit, and all I did was add lube to the appropriate areas. No cleaning, and no jamming. Then I ran out of the good Winchester ammo, changed to the budget winchester, and had problems.
    Feed them what they deserve. Give your .22's good ammo.

    Love the comments on here from people who think the .22 isn't strong enough or might give you an "infection". And yet not one of these folks would ever volunteer to get shot by one huh!?! For many, 15 rounds of .22 with almost no recoil means good hits on target. A few .22's to the face will ruin someone's day. And these same individuals probably all proudly display their .45's and .44 Magnum's...that they couldn't hit the broad side of the barn when they were in it. Not hitting at what you are aiming at with a big bore vs putting ten to fifteen small caliber holes in the sweet spot!?! Hmmmm... Good try tough guys. LOL!!

      I don't carry a 22 for self protection in public places, but I can tell you as a farmer/country bumpkin the 22lr is WAY underrated and needlessly pissed on. In the right hands it is extremely capable. When I am on my land, I usually keep a measly tx22 on my belt (and an rifle on my shoulder or somewhat nearby) Should I not be able to reach my rifle in a moment of crisis, I feel confident that I could do what I needed to do with the 22. I've seen 22's do things that a "puny" cartridge shouldn't be able to do. Plus they are extremely easy to put rounds not just on target, but exactly where you need then to go and quickly. They can absolutely make someone have a very very bad day. Most "tactical"? No... unless you put a can on it.. then it can even do things that other guns can't do.

The weakest thing I've used myself is .223 and some people would say even that is unethical. I know a .22lr is capable of taking large game but the margin of error is to small for me.

    Bought this gun yesterday and took it to the range today, it eats all five different types 22s(Winchester M-22(200 rnds), Winchester 525(200 rnds), Federal automatch(325 rnds), standard velocity(100 rnds), and minimag(200 rnds)). I did a lot of magdump/rapid fire to see the reliability, and it eats them all. There were two duds which is not the gun's fault. The slide, especially the barrel is robust and the gun's ergonomics is fantastic, felt nice on the hand.
    My only issue is the iron sights, it has no whitedots/markings on them, just blank. I think FN designed this gun to make people buy optics because that's where this gun shines even more. Also, the magazine felt somewhat cheap(outer layer is plastic, however the inner layer that's holding the cartridge is metal, at least). And the recoil spring, it felt weak, not stiff enough(I don't know if this is normal in any 22 pistols).
    My only regret is that I bought the black color because local gunshops don't have it in FDE color. I really wanted the FDE.
    All-in-all, the gun is worth the money.

Went from the most reliable 22 that would literally eat anything to a 22 that would only fire rounds above 1450 fps and that was after removing one of the two recoil springs. So I would LOVE to see how reliable this thing is with a Holosun on there.

    This, tx22, beretta 92 22lr, and ruger sr22 seem like the ceiling of reliable 22 arms

    Dude stop doing that thing where your voice gets high pitched and you sperg out. You do this so often for so many firearms, that you're really not saying anything.

    Feed it pure Mexican Aguila Super maximum Hyper Velocity .22 LR 30-gr and you will eliminate any misfires and gain much much more power than compared to any U.S. manufactured competition. In addition there will be no fowling or any of that nonsense that the ignorant haters would like you to believe .
