	The banning or confiscation of weapons is a denial of the nature of Man, a pathetic attempt to avert the violence innate to Mankind, an insult to the Sacred Creed of the Murdercube.

The PSA so far is showing it's very capable. Of course FN has good history of superb barrel quality. The FSN's barrel is chrome lined and proven to go at least 20K rounds. We won't know on the PSA. The PSA's trigger IMO is superior to the FN. Magazine reliability will be interesting.
