Re: FN Herstal 5.7 Pistol
I am sure they are fun to shoot but are they good as a CCW?

Re: FN Herstal 5.7 Pistol
I am sure it will kill people. A .22 long used to be the weapon of choice for mafia hit men. Not muchwgoforth wrote:It is actually the gun Major Hasan used to kill 13 of his fellow soldiers at Fort Hood acouple of years ago. Very good but expensive gun. As suggested, it is essentially a tweaked .22 magnum which would be quite a bit cheaper.
noise but it does the job.
As a CCW I would not want one. I carry one of my .40 cal and have a couple of 9mms with +P
can't see myself carrying a .22

Re: FN Herstal 5.7 Pistol
The FN shoots a very fast bullet. I think it is basically a 22 mag.
For CCW I do not know about that. I believe it has only about 225 ft/lbs of energy which puts it on the very low end.
Less than the 9mm and less than a .38 special!!
The cost of ammo and the cost of the weapon is kind of expensive.
