Smith and Wesson CSX vs. FN Reflex: Hanmer Fired Micro 9’s
This review compares the Smith & Wesson CSX and FN Reflex, two hammer-fired micro 9mm handguns that differ from typical striker-fired models. The CSX is praised for its all-metal frame, low bore axis, and minimal recoil, offering a 12+1 capacity and a 5.5 lb trigger with a clean break. The FN Reflex, a polymer-framed option, features night sights and an internal hammer with a lighter, slightly spongier 4 lb trigger. Both are considered excellent defensive choices, with the CSX favored for faster, low-recoil shooting and the Reflex for its solid defensive platform.
