This video revisits a single-stage trigger modification for FNX pistols, including the 9mm, 40 S&W, and predominantly the 45 Tactical models. The modification converts the traditional double-action/single-action trigger to a single-stage system where the trigger wall is immediately present, and the trigger breaks with minimal rearward movement. The presenter demonstrates the crisp break and reset of the modified trigger, highlighting its efficiency compared to the stock configuration. The video also briefly showcases an FNX chambered in 460 Rowland.
