    Consider what those countries were doing during WW2.

    Plus the FS2000 looks like it can fend off the Covenant better.

    You mean like this one..........and a Tavor to boot : )

    Wouldn't sell it for any price.

    Thanks Daver.

    it's always important to weight a purchase against how it stacks up against the Zerg or Covenant.

    The biggest piss off of the fs2000 for me is that it won't take Pmags. If FN made their magwell a bit wider I'd be all over one
    Insert list of guns you own here:
    (Who needs a registry if everyone advertises what they own)

    Scrap Bill C-68

    Pmags are overrated for a five rounder IMHO.

    Also I think the stock FH looks better than any other muzzle device on this gun... The barrel ends right in the middle and makes it look a bit less goofy than an A2 or vortex.

    For that kind of money you'd think it would come in a nice presentation case , not a cardboard box with white styrofoam , what makes this gun worth so much ? https://shopquestar.com/shopping65/q...qb-od-nr_3.jpg. I'm not saying it's not worth it , I'm just curious about justifying the price , (ya I know there's no justifying the price of our toys sometimes ) for that cash you could have three different nice guns

    The biggest 'add' to the cost is the NR barrel.

    Buying a restricted model (depending on where you can find one... $2800-$3000+) and getting it converted to NR by say, Ian at Herron Arms, would run you close to another $800+.

    So when you add it up... it's not even overpriced IMHO. These firearms are fairly uncommon in Canada, and I think are pretty cool. Like I said though, not a fan of the railed forend, and there is NO source for the standard forends up here.

    Unless you hold onto the one you bought originally and add on the railed forend afterwards...
