How do you like it? I've had my eye on one fore a while, but haven't been sold on what I've read about it.
I handled one...for me, at 6'4", it was incredibly cramped in terms of how short it was. Also, buying it as anything other than an SBR or a rifle with a permanently attached suppressor (bringing it to 16") seems....wrong.
Expensive ammo and mags, too.
Stupid buy? I bought it for a number of different reasons, none of which had to do with "5.7mm ammo out penetrating 5.56mm ammo" or any of your other insinuations.
Besides, it wasn't that expensive for me ($830).
Anyway, I just got it so I haven't taken it to the range. Intending to sometime in the next two weeks once I get some time. Will try to report back afterwards.

Nice! Price I've seen is 1700$ as long as you have plenty of ammo to feed, you're range time is gonna be fun fun fun! Low recoil, 50 round magazine, rapid fire stress relief!Stupid buy?

The level of elitism in this thread has drove me away. It's the select few putting down every other person and their choices. So don't sweat it man...I like your choice and look forward to a range report if it's in a different thread.
God damn elitists recommending run-of-the-mill $100-300 guns over FN wallhangers.
5.7mm weapons are the firearms equivalent of bitcoin. Their only value comes from speculation of what their future value will be.
Nope, brand new. It's LEO/Military pricing.
I like it.

its certainly neat, but Id have to agree that the civvy version is screwed by the barrel length
Nice! Any plans to get an fs2000 to complete the FN collection? ;pI bought it for a variety of reasons.
1. I wanted a bullpup rifle.
2. I am interested in the mechanics of it (magazine top fed with a corkscrew action to feed the round into the chamber, etc.)
3. I wanted an ambidextrous rifle in my collection
4. I was interested in the different ergonomic design
5. I could get it for a great price through the LE/Military program
I do have other rifles in my collection.

Bersa makes a good gun, I have the .45 compact and it's been excellent...do you want to stick with .380 or are you open to other calibers?Gun Newb here - I have a 22 revolver for just plinking around and was thinking of picking up a .22 rifle for target shooting. I want to break into a decent pistol though and am looking for recommendations around 400-500. I would like to eventually get into some tactical course shooting but this will be mostly for home protection and static target shooting. I have had the Bersa .380 recommended but wanted to see what else is out there.
