Academy got in two FN 5.7s today.   I had never seen one in person let alone held one.   What a cheap feeling piece of crap.   Felt like a toy gun.    But not such a toy at $1229.99.    According to a warning included in the box they seem fairly ammo finicky.

So, US Secret Service equips with those?

Sounds about right, our tax dollars at work.

You should start a youtube channel for your in-depth and hard-hitting firearm reviews.  You could call it "Conclusions drawn from holding a gun and reading the box."

They shoot pretty good. If it wasn't for my dislike of the round it might actually be a nice ccw piece. Light, accurate and thin.

Jonesboro?   If we got two they may get some as well.   I just happened to be there when they showed up.   And it is true we have not in the past carried FN except for the .22 model which was made by Walther with the FN name.

The one in LR on Markham.

Since I did not shoot one it would be kinda hard to give a full review.   I still say it feels like a toy along with all the others guys who fingered it.  YMMV
