  2. Rimfire pistol hosts. There are so many! We’ve been messing with the FN 502. It’s like the full size FNX series, but not. Hammer-fired, looks pretty cool, and seems to work OK. It has some idiosyncrasies – we’ll talk about those, the experience so far, and what folks look for in these types of hosts! (00:28:53)
