Detailed Review

The FN Five-seveN is a semi-automatic pistol that was developed by Fabrique Nationale d'Herstal in Belgium. The pistol was introduced in 1998 and its name comes from its caliber, which is 5.7x28mm. The Five-seveN was originally designed as a personal defense weapon for military and law enforcement, but it has also become popular among civilians for target shooting and self-defense.

The Five-seveN has a unique design that incorporates a polymer frame and slide with metal inserts, which makes it lightweight and durable. The pistol has a low bore axis and a long barrel, which helps reduce recoil and improve accuracy. The Five-seveN also features ambidextrous controls, such as the magazine release and safety, which make it easy to use for both left-handed and right-handed shooters.

One of the most distinctive features of the Five-seveN is its ammunition. The 5.7x28mm cartridge was specifically designed for this pistol and it offers several advantages over traditional handgun calibers. The cartridge is smaller and lighter than the 9mm or .45 ACP, which allows for a larger magazine capacity. The 5.7x28mm also has less recoil and muzzle flash, with a flatter trajectory and better penetration. In addition, the cartridge has been used in several other firearms, including the P90 submachine gun and the PS90 rifle.

The Five-seveN is available in several different models, including the standard version with adjustable sights, the Tactical model with a longer barrel and additional accessory rails, and the USG model with an improved trigger and grip texture. The pistol has a 20-round magazine capacity and comes with three magazines. It also has a textured grip and a Picatinny rail for mounting accessories.

In conclusion, the FN Five-seveN is a unique and innovative pistol that offers several advantages over traditional handguns. Its lightweight design, low recoil, and high magazine capacity make it an ideal choice for personal defense and target shooting. Whether you're a military or law enforcement professional or a civilian gun enthusiast, the Five-seveN is definitely worth considering.

Excellent gun. Shoots like a dream. Very little recoil. Only downside is that it does not fit other Five-seveN holsters. Holsters have to be specific to the MK2 model.

I bought this FN 5.7 and it is described as being the USG model while in fact it is the MKII model instead. I'm happy with the purchase, but it isn't the gun i thought I was purchasing. Please change the description to properly describe it. The MKII is th

It is a reliable pistol, I didn't like the grip and handle, it was something to be expected given the round it uses, very accurate and recoil completely non existing, the trigger is not something to write home about, but overall good.

Expensive but fun

Ammo runs $14-18/50 and it is a fun gun to carry. Boat tail bullets tend to tumble when they hit causing a good wound channel. Extremely accurate and easy to handle recoil. 20 rnd mags beat my G-19's 17rnds and is thinner than the Glock doublestack. S

Well it is not a gun for everyone but it was the one for me. Buds delivered quickly as advertised. Fit and finish of the gun was A+. Very nice case and three 20 round magazines. Trigger pull could be a little better. Very nice choice for my off duty weapo

Flat out amazing

Nothing you shoot -- no. pistol. you'll. shoot -- compares directly to the FN 5.7. Its light weight full grip near-zero recoil characteristics combine with the long range flat trajectory and flat-out lethality of its ammo to create an experience unriv

I've looked at the Five Seven for over a year. Wasn't sure about it. It seemed pricey for a small caliber pistol. After shooting one at our local gun shop, I fell in love with it. Mild recoil, lots of power and a joy to fire. The fun factor on this pistol
