FN FiveseveN thoughts

When I finally located one of these my wife said you "better get it". She knew I had been searching for a long time. The online reviews are pretty much dead on. The trigger SUCKS! It's going to take a bit to get consistent groupings up in the center ring from pulling down on the daggum trigger. It's that heavy. After I fired 15 or so through it at 25 yards and was used to the sights a little better I tried some 3" clays at 50 yards. The dang thing is as accurate as advertised IF you can look through the muzzle blast for the second shot and keep in mind the trigger must be set at 10 LONG pounds?

I'll have one of my friends with a trigger pull measure it when I catch one at the range.

For such a hot round the weapon has next to no muzzle flip, the grip and weight is amazing. It field strips in seconds. I'll get used to the trigger. At .60 a shot this won't be one used a bunch after I get a couple hundred through it and more comfortable. It's easy on the wrist and that was my primary objective. The muzzle blast makes it tough on the second shot. You can literally watch fire come out the end of the barrel. This is the "GSU" model but no threaded barrel. They are out there.

If you are not into collecting off the wall stuff or want a high capacity hot little round save your money and buy at least two of something else for what one of these cost new. Glad I have one, may end up being more of a safe queen?

Speaking of safe queens. I have a collector I shoot with that has made me a heck of an offer on an old Kimber .22 82 rifle. It has the usual cut mark on the stock. He picked it up in NC on the initial sale and recently picked up another when they released the last 2000. This gun collecting can be hazardous to your wallet. :shocked:
