Just added the 5.7 to the flock. Love me some FN stuff. The SCAR 17 is on badass rifle.

Nice collection. You need an FAL now.

Would love if FN made a tactical version for their striker guns like the FNS9 or the FN 509. I want to throw another RMR on one of my guns!

Sweet collection!

I agree. I think that would be a popular gun. Just returned from the range and must say the 5.7 impressed me. Its very accurate and followup shots were quick to target. I know it has naysayers but it's growing on me. I am thinking of making it a truck gun.

it's a great round
it's just so damn loud though, uncomfortably so to me

I feel like the 5.7 handgun is a bit of a gimmick since so much energy is wasted with the short barrel. The PS90 with a longer barrel I feel would make it more effective. How much velocity can you really get out of the handgun?

Plus I think the whole feel of the handgun doesn't give me much confidence. For over a grand you'd think the gun would be a bit more robust. But I get that the design is meant to be lightweight and the 5.7 round doesn't recoil much so it makes sense, just not my cup of tea.

But if you gave me free ammo and told me to shoot it I wouldn't turn you down.
