FNP 45 compared to the FNP 45 TACTICAL

I have kinda of a dumb question concerning the FN 45's. I know the basic differences in the two weapons, like the tactical having the threaded barrel, the high night sights, and the adapters for the red dot. I guess my question is is there any other differences between the two guns besides what I have stated. Thanks for any help.

Aside from what you mentioned, the FNP-45T comes with three 15 round magazines and a more robust carrying case.

Hit the nail on the head. You just covered it all there.

I bought a new FNP 45 last weekend at a gun show. It is not tactical or competition. However, it came with night sights (they had them with regular sights as well) and 3 15 round mags. I have been meaning to ask if they changed what was included since there was problems with some of the 14 rounders.

Just out of curiosity what makes the triggers different between them? I dont mean to keep asking dumb questions I am just trying to learn more about this platform.

Guess I shouldn't have typed that in a hurry. The competition and FNP-45T have different trigger groups than the standard USG. I don't know the weight difference between the C and the T, but the T's is supposedly ligther than the USG

I noticed a difference between my old USG and a friend's tac. The reset was shorter but the SA break was much longer. Trigger weight felt about the same, though I was working from muscle memory at that point since I didn't have my .45 with me at the time.
