This review of the FN Reflex micro-compact 9mm pistol highlights its internal hammer-fired system and lightweight trigger, which some consider among the best for concealed carry. The presenter, with apparent experience in firearms instruction, discusses the pistol's trigger break and reset, the absence of a blade safety, and FN's mitigation strategy of including an ambidextrous thumb safety. Testing focuses on trigger feel, split times, appendix draw proficiency, and overall ergonomics, concluding that while the pistol is snappy due to its size, its features make it a viable option for concealed carry.

Conversely, cons discussed are the premium price point for many models, increased maintenance requirements compared to striker-fired firearms, potential challenges with size and weight for concealed carry, magazine reliability issues, and the learning curve associated with manual and grip safeties, especially for those accustomed to striker-fired pistols.

The video argues that 2011-style handguns are often overpriced and overrated, presenting several alternatives that offer comparable or superior performance at a lower cost.
