I like the 5.7 caliber personally, but I understand it is not for everyone. The FN offers me high capacity, a flat shooting accurate round, with a lot of penetration. With the border violence as bad as it is and the cartel influence over here, I wanted a handgun that would have those specific capabilities. I don't think the 5.7 is a better self-defense round than .45 or .357, but it does allow me to pack a lot of rounds in a magazine, and fire very quickly in the event I find myself dealing with a certain criminal element.
In the event the FiveseveN does not float you boat as an EDC, it is still a fun gun to shoot and an interesting addition to your collection!
