FN 510

The 510 was released in 2023 alongside the FN 545, which is chambered in .45 ACP.^[2]

Based on the FN 509, the FN 510 is a striker-fired handgun with a stainless steel slide with ferritic nitrocarburizing finish and a polymer frame.

Black and flat dark earth (FDE) colorings are available.

The FN 510's barrel length is 4.1 inches (100 mm) for the Standard Full Size (MRD) model & 4.71 inches (120 mm) for the Tactical model. The backstrap of the grip accepts interchangeable inserts; one arched and one flat.

The slide has serrations on both front and back, for easy slide manipulation.

The FN 510 features double-action operation with magazine releases and slide locks present on both sides of the gun, plus a Picatinny rail located forward of the trigger guard.

Instead of a manual safety, the 510 includes an integrated trigger safety (the articulated trigger type like the FN FNS) as part of its four passive safety systems: a striker block, a drop safety, a trigger disconnect and a trigger safety lever.^[3]

The FN 510 primarily uses 15-round magazines; 10-round magazines are available for states with a high-capacity magazine ban.

The FN 510 is chambered in 10mm Auto.

Several variants of the FN 510 have been made available:^[1]

4.71-inch (120 mm) barrel length, 15- and 22-round magazines, available in black or FDE, threaded barrel, raised sights (to accommodate a suppressor), with low-profile optics mounting system (for a red dot sight).

4.1-inch (100 mm) barrel length, 15-round magazines, available in black or FDE, with low-profile optics mounting system.
