    Anyone ever shot the FN 57 that was on this week's episode of Top Guns? Looked awesome. Recoil like a ruger mkiii but 2100 fps!

    the FN Five Seven looks like a great weapon to shoot and not to much recoll from what i saw:ar15:. Top Shot may stay on t.v.for a while if they keep putting weapons like this on.

    Its a cool concept, with its phenomenal 20 rd mag and all. lol. Idk if I could justify spending over a grand on a novelty, however.

    I've had one for several years and really like taking it out and giving it a good work out. Really easy on the old hands. Very little recoil and super accurate even for me at 25 yards.

    If I have to sell any of my firearms, the Five-seveN is not on the list!

    A co worker of mine has one and loves it! I shot it last year, nice weapon, smooth, and accurate. Ammo seemed expensive as he had only FN brand ammo. :dunno: Neat pistol/round and if you like it great!

    I'd like it more if:

    A) we weren't forced into "neutered" ammo

    &

    B) said ammo wasn't so expensive

    I used to have one and sold it. The ammo isn't any more expensive than anything else out there if you get it online. It is also a single action only pistol and has the safety in the front. You have to operate it with your index finger. If you get the PS90 to go with it you'll have a pistol and a carbine that uses the same ammo. This is what I initially bought it for. It was also the first gun that I ever purchased.
