::Not really, they have different slides, sights, grip designs, magazine releases, rails and safety mechanisms (the top has a manual safety whereas the bottom is a de-cocker only without an ambi slide release). Looking into it, the bottom gun is the original FNP which was in 9mm and .40. They then came out with the FNP-45 which has all of the differences listed above and looks like the one on the main page (I think this was actually built for a potential military/LE contract or something but not sure). FNH USA have now come out with an updated versions of the FNP and they call them the FNX-9 and FNX-40 which have all of the FNP-45 improvements. There is also an FNX-45 which looks pretty much identical to the FNP-45 but has a few tweaks that makes it more tolerant of ammunition as the original was designed around NATO ammo specs. To add a bit of confusion, the Belgian company sell the FNX as an updated version of the FNP and sell it as such. I think these later guns should be referred to as the FNX so as to distinguish them from the FNP, but still list them on this page. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 15:11, 23 July 2012 (CDT) | ::Not really, they have different slides, sights, grip designs, magazine releases, rails and safety mechanisms (the top has a manual safety whereas the bottom is a de-cocker only without an ambi slide release).

FNP-9 differences
Are the Belgian and US FNP-9s different guns? The two image below are from the Belgian and US sites respectively, and they are pretty different. --commando552 10:47, 17 May 2012 (CDT)
- Eh, I think they're just the same gun with a few differences. Jeddostotle7 14:40, 23 July 2012 (CDT)
- Not really, they have different slides, sights, grip designs, magazine releases, rails and safety mechanisms (the top has a manual safety whereas the bottom is a de-cocker only without an ambi slide release). Looking into it, the bottom gun is the original FNP which was in 9mm and .40. They then came out with the FNP-45 which has all of the differences listed above and looks like the one on the main page (I think this was actually built for a potential military/LE contract or something but not sure).
