FNX940 Details
The FN FNX pistol is a series of semi-automatic, polymer-framed pistols manufactured by FN America. Introduced in 2009, it is chambered for the 9mm, .40 S&W, and .45 ACP cartridges.
The 3D printed FNX940 by Vinh Nguyen is modeled after this pistol and compatible with both the 9mm and .40 S&W FNX versions.
A few of the design concepts were derived from the previously released 3D printed FNS940 model by TMS.
This printed FNX uses plates for rails, rather than a monolithic locking block or integrated into the fire-control housings.
