Two very different pistols!
Hammer fired vs striker
Polymer vs steel and Alloy...

I just picked up a Beretta M9A1 recently from SS for $479
Already installed a G conversion (de-cock only) and a "D" spring.
I like it!

As far as the FN, I think there are better strikers out there than their's.
Really like the M&P 2.0s and they are AMERICAN!

You buy a Toyota tundra made in Texas over a Ford made in America?

Texas seceded from the union?
The last late model Ford I had was made in North America. Parts from all over and partially assembled in U.S.A.

Its the argument where the end dollar goes.... is Toyota just as a foreign company as FN is? Regardless of where its produced
