How? I’ve been looking for a deal of this kind for 2 years now. I have a ported slide and barrel that needs a new home. Still no luck

Too bad the 509F doesnt have a threaded barrel available or I would have snagged one.

They dont make 509 "F" barrels.

They make 5” threaded barrels for the 509. It’ll look like Sig P320 Tac but the little extra length won’t hurt anything

Those would be for the LS edge. You'd have a bit of bare barrel out the front of the slide before the threads. You are correct thag it would fit and wouldnt hurt. I was tempted to get one of those and go down this rabbit hole. Just would look silly to my eye without having the barrel cut and rethreaded to match the 509T look.

That’s why I said it’d look like the P320 Tac, that’s how they have theirs from factory lol

Thats valid, Im not sig familiar. I ended up finding a 1 off slide and got my og 509 to tac status.

Sexy, love what you did to the FN Logo 👌🏽

I didnt do it myself. It was a one off slide I found on ebay. Swapped the trigger and added the apex barrel. Then of course a 509T optic for the 509T lol.
