I got the bill :cryin

But I get to shoot it too! :fire

Oh same here. The wife loves my, err her five seven. I couldn't get her to shoot anything but my buckmark because she is recoil sensitive. She has no problem with the five seven though. It is now her home defense pistol.

Like jailbird, I at least get to shoot it.

Re: I finally made her mine

The only holster I could find in about an hour of searching the web (no patience) was an alien gear. It works great.

Re: I finally made her mine

I finally was able to go to the range today and fire my five seven. It started again all over the place and after about 50 or 60 rounds I started noticing it started grouping. I was firing 10 rounds at a time. The groups started getting tighter. I put 350 rounds through it. The last hundred rounds went beautifully. I fired 15 and 25 yards. I had zero malfunctions. I want to go again this weekend and put another 300-400 rounds. I am really liking this pistol.

Re: I finally made her mine

Went to the range yesterday and tried my five seven. I used 40gr V Max and 40gr federal. I only got to shoot about 20 rounds through it before being told I could not shoot it at the pistol range. Something about the round punching holes through the angled metal backstop. Going to head to a different range Monday if the weather permits. It started drizzling pretty heavy here.

In those 20 rounds I fired I had zero malfunctions. I had a bit of a problem with the accuracy though. I was shooting all over the place. The sights are adjustable but it was not just shooting high or to the left, it was all over. Not impressed. I wonder if there is a break in period or if I got a lemon. It was real disappointing but Ill give it another go tomorrow.

Really, really frustrating. $1350 for a pistol that is suppossed to be real accurate and it doesnt perform well. :banghead:

The weather kept me from going last Saturday. Ill be headed to the range today.

I finally made her mine

After a few years of wanting her, I finally made her mine. I finally bought myself a FN Five Seven MK2. I know alot of people hate it. They say its an overpriced 22 magnum. Others love it. They swear its the best gun. I dont know what it is but there is something about her that caught my eye. Im going to put several hundred rounds through her saturday and see if its true love. If she performs well, I am going to get me a good holster and carry her maybe once a week. I can hardly wait.
