![]() That said, I was able to get all three digits on the pistol with the 12-round magazine mounted, too. The 15-round mags allow anyone with hands smaller than a silverback gorilla’s a full, four-fingered grip. That means they eject quickly and reliably every single time. Shooting the CC Edge without the compensator, you’ll notice more muzzle flip, the same as you would with any standard, uncompensated compact 9mm.įN ships the CC Edge with three magazines a 12-rounder and two 15-round mags.Īll three magazines have metal baseplates. I shot it side-by-side with the LS Edge and reckon the shorter, lighter pistol’s compensated muzzle flip is about the same as that of the bigger, longer, heavier pistol. The primary function of any compensator, of course, is to minimize felt recoil and muzzle flip. Then depress the comp (which is sprung) and rotate it 90 degrees to remove it. Detach the slide from the frame, pop out the dual captive recoil spring and slide the barrel forward slightly. The proprietary mounting system couldn’t be simpler. That’s important given the compensator’s contours that blend with those of the CC Edge’s PVD-coated slide. ![]() Unlike most compensators, FN designed the comp for the CC Edge to attach via a bayonet-type mount for quick, easy auto-indexing. The compensator will also keep any weapon light you might attach to the Pic rail from accumulating carbon deposits. That’s not insignificant, as, like the LS Edge, the CC Edge has a slim, suppressor-height fiber optic-equipped front sight post. That keeps schmutz and debris off of your front sight. Unlike some other pistol compensators, the CC Edge’s comp features two ports that direct gasses up and away at angles…rather than straight up. But as with the LS Edge, they used that as a jumping off point to kick the CC Edge up a few notches, including in the case of the new gun, an auto-indexing compensator. The 509 CC Edge has the same height and slide length as the 509 Compact Tactical. FN chose to make their first new gun after the competition-minded LS Edge a compact-size pistol and to give it a twist. With the recent announcement of the new FN 509 CC Edge, FN’s made good on that promise and a second handgun now officially makes the Edge Series a series. Better yet, think Smith & Wesson’s Performance Center guns or SIG’s Legion line. ![]() Think BMW’s M models or Mercedes’ AMG cars. When FN launched the 509 LS Edge about a year and a half ago, they promised it would be the first in a series of new upgraded, premium pistols.
