Piston Update 2013
Self Loading Police Shotgun Piston Update
FNH USA has recently updated the Piston Springs in the
SLP™ shotguns. To help identify the new springs, different
colored rims are installed on the pistons. The new pistons are
identified with a gold rim on its base and either no markings
or some markings, as described in your SLP™ Owner’s
Manual.
Note that in Section 2, page 3 and in Section 10, page 18 of
your SLP™ Owner’s Manual, it references two pistons, one
red for light loads and one black for heavy loads. These have
been replaced by Gold Rimmed pistons. The piston for light
loads, less than 1 ½ oz, is installed in your SLP™ from the factory. It is marked, “FN SLP™ Less than 1
½ oz.” The piston for heavy loads is included in the shipping case, it is intended for loads 1 ½ oz and
heavier. It is marked, “FN SLP™ 1 ½ oz and heavier.”
Models affected: SLP™ (3088929010, 3088929011) and SLP™ Tactical (3088929145, 3088929146).
