I want to buy one more pistol.

[sillymike]

After a chat with my friend at Durham, i am leaning toward the 5.7 and 500 rounds of Amax

Anybody else makes a pistol in 5.7 other FN?
- it's not exactly the prettiest handgun around...

Excel Arms Accelerator 5.7mm. Fairly inexpensive but not stellar quality.

There is also the Masterpiece Arms. Also probably not the best quality.

Thanks for the infos, not my style to much

Actually, the price is not the deciding factor, american P210 or 5.7 both about the same, fun factor is more like it.

I wouldn't touch them either. FN 5.7 is far superior. I'm thinking of an FN for fun too but I already have the 210 angle covered (though with the real one). The FN actually has a bit of a cult following for a few good reasons. Its not just a novelty.

I looked at the 5.7 some years ago. Ammo is crazy expensive, or was. Basically really hard to reload, not worth it. I was told than to buy a 22 mag and that is what I did. The 22 mag ammo is fairly impressive but a little expensive to shoot. At least with the P210 you are burning some of the least expensive ammo out there.

For a reason or another, when I see a FN 5.7

I cannot help but think it looks like a Keltec

What's your definition of fun?
- To me, for the last few years I enjoy trying to shoot small groups at 50M... or think I'll have to stop a Grizzly...

On my fun "wish list" would be
Another FP

Another hand-cannon

I have a 2.5 alaskan 44mag at my NH farm. Awesome handgun.

Then, of the two handgun discussed, I'd go with the P210.

The only other service pistol that could compete with it, as far as "fit and finish" and accuracy... Would be a C96 or P08, neither of which are still available "new"

My personal number one want is the BRNO 7.5K when it shows up!

 

[rustynut1]

Suggested price $7-8000 USD. Good comparsion, not to mention an unusual round of ammo. Apples and oranges.

Me too. Preorder price was $7k cad at Bullseye - considerably less than in the US. They were listed up until recently. Given the price and state of Canadian market wonder if they decided not to bother.

I've only been collecting since March, but I already know there's no such thing as "only one more pistol"...

And since one of the friendly folks at my range let me try firing a few rounds from his revolver, one or more of those have made it onto my wish list too.
