Hello everyone, I have a speculative question. Does the extensive use of polymer in the FS2000 make it easier to manufacture compared to a weapon with a lot of metal parts?  

I know nothing about plastics, but it seems the design of the FS2000 would lend itself to very efficient production.

Thanks all!

It is all done with CNC and molding machines any ways....All the major parts except the barrel are made completely by CNC it takes no man hours except putting in a new piece

the molding machines are a little differnet but do not require massive amounts of man hours

So yes but that does not make them cheaper the parts have to be assemballed, guns tested lawyers paid, machines paid for, ect ect.....
