    For those who may have one, there is a Recall on the FN502 T.

    Any idea what this is about, haven't called them yet
     
    I just realized this is for a 502 (22lr)

    Not a 509 T
     
    I believe this is related to an issue with the manual safety. There was a recall maybe 1-2 months ago that basically specified an inspection procedure (apply the safety, cock the hammer, and pull the trigger; call us if the hammer drops). Mine passes that test, but so much as breathe near the safety and it will allow the hammer to drop with a full trigger pull. I could easily see where minor wear could cause this to go from acceptable to unsat.
     
    Just did a search and here's the scoop:


    Apparently this went from "a part might be missing on some guns" to "a part might not work on a lot of guns".
