FN's Forgotten Police Pistol: The Forty-Nine
This review of the FN 49, a forgotten 90s polymer-framed pistol chambered in .40 S&W and 9mm, highlights its double-action-only trigger and less-than-ideal ergonomics. Despite a heavy trigger, the reviewer found it surprisingly accurate in slow fire compared to the Smith & Wesson Sigma SW40F, though less controllable in rapid fire. The FN 49 is noted for its proprietary accessory rail and a grip design that can lead to finger pinching during magazine insertion.
