FS2000 Range Repot
I finally got my FS2000 out to Roush Lake today to get it sighted in.
1. “Feel”, it feels better to me than my other bullpup (STG-556) I think because it is wider and the front grip area is better
2. “Accuracy” Again, similar to other bullpups I have within about 4” @50yds closer if I tried harder. (NcStar cheap scope, but no loss of zero, scope was no issue)
3. “Shooting Feel”, (Benched and Bagged, 62grn Brown Bear, 1/7 barrel) Lots of movement with each shot but not so much that I could not keep it “near” on target between shots. Ergonomics on this gun SUCK!!, lol, Safety is under the trigger on some sort of dial thing, requires a truck and chain to remove mags from the well and no bolt hold open, one more time, NO bolt hold open. Those cons combined with the pros of feel and look make it an average gun for me
4. “Cleaning” Very clean same as my other piston guns, very easy to break down. Piston and barrel are the only real dirty parts
5. “Other Thoughts” As I have seen mentioned here before, lots of plastic parts, both in the trigger group and on the bolt as far as what that means for reliability, I do not know, I shot 300+ rounds from it with no trouble. It ejects brass out the front (very cool looking) enabling the shooter to burn the wrist of their weaker hand when the brass hits the bench (really not an issue, just griping because my wrist still hurts. Requires special tools for removing the piston and other odd jobs, those are provided and there is room in the stock for them (this is a con for me). If I had to choose between the FS2000 and my MSAR STG-556 (again as I have seen mentioned here before) it would be the MSAR hands down. Mostly because I believe it is built better and more reliability than the FS2000
