Anybody like the FNP? How about the CZ 40B?

Let's hear everything anyone has to say about the FNP-9m (compact) and the CZ 40B pistols, I just ordered one of each, based on love of the CZ pistol and the great quiet reputation that the FNP has been garnering since its introduction, as well as the fact that I have wanted an FNP for about four years now, and found one cheap. I ordered the compact 9m model, because it isn't much smaller than the full size (less than a quarter inch of barrel length, and one round shorter magazine) but it isn't going to be sold in the U.S. anymore, at least not for the forseeable future. The CZ 40B is another little oddity, Colt bowed out of a project that was basically hiring CZ to make a .40 caliber CZ 75 variant that had the grip style and overall profile of a 1911, then badging it and calling it the Colt Z40 and the 9mm version the LE9. When colt ducked out, they left CZ with a winner that they were free to sell, and now it is one of the best buys on the new pistol market, at $300 or less.
