Nissan 370Z Forum  

Anyone here into firearms?

I went looking for 22lr after I picked up my new rifle. I checked 3 different walmarts, all they had left were maximags. No thanks. I went to Gander mountain

Does anybody have any experience with the FN F2000? I've held one before but never had the chance to fire it. I'm thinking I may buy one when I get back home to WA next year. Being prior military, I'm sorta burnt out on AR-15/M4 rifles and just looking for something different.

I WISH I had more experience...
I shot it ONCE...
I loved it, recoil was REALLY low, and even though it looks like it came out of Halo, I enjoyed holding it, felt really good

Also the cartridges eject out the front in an organized fashion. So it's nice if you reload! (Trippy part is that you can shoot 5(?) rounds before it opens the hatch thing to let them drop out)


If you buy one and I'm in whatever area you may be, can I come over and shoot it? Lol

Awesome. I've seen some Youtube videos and it looks like the expended brass just sorta... poops out.. lol. Almost everybody I work with owns an AR-15 and they are always asking me why not just get something battle proven. (Everybody in my department is prior/retired military, so I get a lot of bias opinions). What can I say, I like the "cool guy" guns. Fs2000, FN P90, Kriss super V, H&K MP7... and then of course the guns that I'm used to that aren't exactly legal .
