I got a text from Academy since I am signed up for guns and ammo alerts.

https://www.academy.com/p/fnh-usa-503-9mm-luger-pistol

This one looks like it is around $500 usually. For some reason, Academy is moving the FDE version out at $299. This came out to about $336 for me, with taxes and a ship to store fee. Seems like a great deal on a quality compact 9mm to me.

Anyone have one already?

ive had one for a couple years, picked mine up at a pawn shop for about 4. its a great little piece with the extended magazine.

Only drawback looks like it is a single stack? How many do you get with extended mag? This will tide me over until I can get my sig 365 macro in hand.

6 in the flush fit mag, 8 in the extended

What he said below.

I'm guessing they went quick?

Still shows available to be shipped to store for me

Yep, just ordered one in Austin, shipped to store free next week. It was $299 for me too. Cheapest I could find was Bud's Guns for $429.

Dang y'all! I pick up in Austin the 11th.

I hate y'all.

Pick mine up next week

Well hell ... in for the group buy.

Arrives on the 10th or 11th.

They are going to start to wonder why there are so many of these being shipped to Cedar Park/Austin soon.

Glad I could help empty some wallets!

FN Website says it comes with the extended mag

https://fnamerica.com/products/pistols/fn-503-fde/..

66-100098-9FN 503 STRIKER STANDARD FDE/FDE (1) 6-Rnd (1) 8-Rnd845737012786

The FN 503 is the highly concealable micro-compact pistol perfectly suited for concealed carry. With a legendary reputation of FN durability to uphold, the compromises in shootability, accuracy and reliability with slim CCW handguns are solved. FN chose beefy metal parts and a better balance point to a rigid frame on a slim slide, tuning out felt recoil. Benefits of an oversize extractor and slide stop ensure failsafe feeding and control, with full height grip stippling locking into the hand to reduce muzzle flip.

The FN 503 delivers the confidence and repeatability for serious shooters who expect more from their concealed carry handgun. Accuracy is delivered with a best-in class all-metal trigger that breaks cleanly at 5.5lbs, with a crisp sight picture from metal, snag-free 3-dot sights. Available in flat dark earth and black, the advanced ergonomics of the FN 503 allow instinctive and fast changes between the included 6-round and 8-round magazines.

This is a great little gun. The problem is that it was released AFTER all of the stagger stacks and just kind of fell into the weeds because of it. At that price, it's a freaking steal.

Angel: You don't need another gun.

Devil: But it's a great deal! Too good to pass up.

Angel: You have plenty of 9mm pistols as it is. You never even shoot the ones you have!

Devil: But it's brown. You don't have a brown one!

Angel: Great point! Here's my money.

This is how it always goes in my head too.

DAMNIT

Sold out online. Guess that saves me a couple of hundred, but now I'm going to obsess about this until I get it.



I hate guns.

Bought several days ago. Pick up on the 10th in Fort Worth. Can't wait to shoot this little dude.

Picking up tomorrow and will be firing this weekend.

Picked mine up around 3:40 in Cedar Park - there was someone after me (an older guy / marine). I bought ammo (?) from you last year, so I would probably recognize you.

Manager told me there were 20+ and he was shocked how many were shipped to him.

Now for holster recommendations...

IWB ?
OWB ?

Did y'all get an email from Academy saying it was ready or did you just go?

I had an alert in my app that the order was ready for pickup.

I just checked online - I do not have the app.

The marine behind did the same thing.... never received an email saying it arrived.

Sounds like the app pushes the notices.

Yeah I didn't get an app push or an email. Good thing I checked because when I logged in it says if I didn't pick up today they were cancelling it. Picked it up at 630 in college station. Asked the guy how many they got in and he said about 40. Says it was a price mistake but that they honored it, dunno about all that

the price was great. glad some ags took advantage.

That was me, Angler.

Got a call from store yesterday that it was ready to be picked up!

I just watched my online account for delivery. Arrived and picked up yesterday. No notification from the store. Kid at Academy said they got 15 in yesterday.

Picked mine up at the Academy on 183 just now. "Angel" said like thirty Ags came and bought em all because someone posted the deal on TexAgs.

In case you missed it or need a different color, here it is again today in the black color for $299:

Got the same e-mail and went ahead and ordered one to try out.

Does anyone know if this latest one comes with the extended mag like first one. I don't see it specified on the listing.

FN's page says they come with both the 6 and 8 round mags.
