FNH five seven

Pistols can be had. Ammo when found, in Canada, quite expensive. 
I've seen it for ~ $21 US for a box of 50 rounds at the big Bass Pro in South Las Vegas when I was down there awhile back. Too bad it's not easily exported to this country.
NAA.

It is as easy to export to this country as any other ammuntion. I know personally. I am exporting 5000 rounds of 5.7x28 for a freind of mine.
Problem is nobody wants to import it for whatever reason. God knows why Questar who is selling all these PS90's and Five Sevens doesn't bother with the ammo. Bad business move on their part.

nope cant take ammo out of the US without allot of paper work
I have a five seven that I buy from Questar. I live in Quebec and to get the ammunition has reasonable price I had to go look at the Cabelas in Maine. You can import up to 5000 rounds without any import permits. The ammunition cost is 31$ Canadian Dollar with my gaz and customs charges included.

They're not that hard to find, I have 2 of them, and 1 is a DOA model.... I guess it's a bit of a collectors item now.
Doesn't matter if he's Charlton Heston...he still can't leave the USA with no export paperwork for the ammo (unless he's using a loophole).
An american can leave the US with 1000 rounds for personal use without any paperwork.
He didn't say he didn't have the proper paperwork...

clarification
You're making the common error of confusing citizenship with residence...
An american RESIDENT can leave the US with 1000 rounds for personal use without any paperwork. And his post spoke only about the Canadian import regulations leading the rest of us to reasonably conclude that he was unaware of the USATF export regs.

citizenship is not the disscusion, whatever he does on his time legal or illegal is none of our buisness. he said he gets the rounds, he didnt say how or by what means. so please stay on topic.
so those of you who have bought the five seven, how do you find it, accurate and reliable?

Your right.

Back on topic, I will be buying a FiveSeven shortly. I'm told it's a cool little gun. I need something for body armoured zombies
