The FN 502 Tactical represents a pioneering step in rimfire handguns as the industry’s first slide-mounted, optics-ready .22 LR pistol. Designed for optimal shooting enjoyment, it features a 4.6" barrel with a target crowned muzzle and a 1/2×28 threaded end for easy attachment of suppressors or muzzle devices. The slide is constructed from anodized aluminum and steel, providing durability and a sleek look, while front and rear cocking serrations facilitate easy operation. The FN 502 Tactical’s loaded chamber indicator enhances safety and functionality. Inspired by FN’s Low-Profile Optics Mounting System, this pistol allows for seamless integration of red dot optics, enhancing accuracy and versatility with a wide range of .22 LR ammunition. Its superior ergonomics, including ambidextrous controls and a design borrowed from the FN 509, make it ideal for extended training sessions. The FN 502 Tactical's fixed suppressor-height sights and co-witness alignment with the optic ensure quick and accurate target acquisition, while the overall build supports high round count shooting with precision and ease.
