FN 5.7 Pistol Club

I wonder how many people have the FN 5.7 pistol in Indiana.

Saving for one. Have the P45 and love it.

I am thinking about selling mine but I can't get myself to the point where I can part with it. It has such an awesome range and the high capacity makes it awesome!

 

[The Keymaster]

I have the FiveSeven, and the PS90. I will NEVER part with them. There are 2 ways to get the most out of these firearms, load your own ammo, or try some ammo from Elite Ammo. The factory ammo for the most part is anemic at best.

I have the Five-seveN and PS90, thinking about a PWA upper for my AR as well...awesome fun!

 

[localone]

I love my 5.7

The original pistol cases were the best...You could fit the pistol (20+1), 2 mags (20 ea.), 3 full boxes (50 ea.), and tactical light for a total of 211 rounds in a box smaller than the new one! The whole package weighs less than 10 pounds I think.

Where can you find the best deal on one of these pistols? One of my good friends has been wanting one for some time and they are so expensive!

 

[SW.Ecks]

I've always wanted one but I can never find one... how much does one run for these days?

 

[DownByTheTracks]

MSRP is $1317, but they shouldn't cost more than $1175.00

 

[The Keymaster]

They can be had for less than $1000.00. If you look really hard you can find tham for $949.00. I know A&A Arsenal has them for around $995.00

Hey keymaster...Do you physically reload your own ammo? I have a couple of guys I know, one reloads for several police depts in my area and also has 2 of the rifles. Last I spoke with him there were'nt even dies available. If you do you are way ahead of the game according to some of the most knowledgeable reloaders I know. If you have any info it would be appreciated. I have lots of brass and would like to learn the process and recipes.

 

[The Keymaster]

Yes, I do reload my own 5.7 x 28. Hornady makes the dies. They will also make a custom shell plate for the LNL progressive. Elite Ammo makes a custom shell plate for the Dillon 550. Loading 5.7 x 28 is quite different from many cartridges. The case length is REALLY important, and the cases stretch a lot, so they have to be trimmed each time they are loaded. If you are really interested, PM me, and I will tell you how to get a whole lot more information.

 

[SW.Ecks]

I don't go by MSRP anyway, considering on S&W's website my SW1911 is around $1200 and I got it for $960 after tax brand new :]
