FN Reflex XL 9mm Luger, No Manual Safety, FDE, 3.8 in Barrel, 15+1, Hammer-Fired SAO
The FN Reflex XL is the extended variant of FN's modern micro-compact lineup, pairing a 3.8 in cold hammer-forged barrel with a stainless-steel slide finished in corrosion-resistant FDE PVD. This example is the no-manual-safety configuration, chambered in 9mm Luger, and originally ships with one 15-round and one 18-round factory magazine; only a single 15-round magazine is included with this listing (the 18-round magazine is not included). It features iron sights with a high-visibility orange-dot front, interchangeable backstraps, and FN's internal hammer-fired, single-action system.
Introduced as part of the Reflex series launched in 2023, the XL model debuted in 2025 and increases barrel length and capacity in a slim profile. The slide has front and rear slide serrations for confident manipulation, and the FDE polymer frame complements the slide finish for a cohesive look. Controls include a trigger with an integral safety blade and a trigger safety system.
Sight picture is straightforward and fast, with a plain black rear sight and a bright orange-dot front. The XL flush-fit 15-round magazine yields a 15+1 capacity in 9mm Luger, and the included additional backstrap allows quick grip-size adjustment. Markings include REFLEX and 9x19 on the slide and FN COLUMBIA, SC USA on the frame, confirming U.S. manufacture.
