Stop tempting me. And, on a more serious note, it is that additional $400 that is making me hit the "pause" button on this purchase. Bah. Stop tempting me.

As it is, I think I would only really be happy with the 6" barrel + 6" silencer arrangement (that just looks shiny), and that would require far too much paperwork and money at the moment.

The cartridge isn't really overpriced, 40-50 cents/shot for premium bullets (Hornady v-max)is actually quite decent. I have dies but don't reload since the cases show signs of stress and stretching after just one firing in the PS 90. However I'd love to get a 20" contender in 5.7 just to see how it performs in a long barrel. In addition to which it would eliminate case stretch and allow me to use those dies I bought. How's that for a $300 answer to a $30 problem? I love my PS90, I think the AR57 upper is a pretty cool idea too at about $500 savings over the FN gun.

Still spendy underpowered ammo that can't easily be reloaded (A friend who tried found that the non-tapered case walls are aided in extraction by some factory coating, one trip through the brass tumbler or a few trips into the chamber lead to sticky cases and double-feeds.

We've sold a LOT of FN's new wunderkind, so it behooves us to stay up in stock on 5.7 ammo. 5.7 ammo is still around 0.50 to 0.60 a round, I think the boxes we have are about the same price as .45acp.
