My now non restricted FN FS2000

[8 ball]

Sorry, no bench test or anything like that. Just a quick "look what I have" photo of my FN FS2000 that is now non restricted! Took a quick pic this AM after I ran a couple of Beowolf mags through her for a function test after getting her back from Ian. Look forward to doing some serious bench work, and testing on coyotes!

Very cool! I like it. Thanks for sharing the pic!

Nice. If you don't mind me asking, how does this compare price-wise to a Tavor?

Good choice on the stock FH retention. Looks much better than an aftermarket AR one.

PS I have an extra set of Urban ERT Sling adapters for the FS if you're interested!

Is yours a CQB, or were you fortunate enough to get the standard forend as well? Handles and feels MUCH better than rail/VFG in my opinion...

 

[Dexter Morgan]

Very nice.

How much for the conversion?

How much paperwork to get it de-restricted?

This is awesome in so many ways!

 

[loki_81]

Very nice . High five for nice rifles...

On my conversion it was about $850. Paperwork is nothing - he does it all. Ian's work is TOP notch... I've owned TWO of Ian's conversions (FS and ACR) and both are perfect in every way.

Zero failures, 100% reliability....

Nice indeed, we need these NR stock.

Good Golly Miss Molly THAT'S NICE!!!

Way to stick it to the man by making them non-restricted! Nice Job!

Cheers

I like the rifle cradle dent in your box

Cost about $850ish. As mentioned, Ian does the paperwork for you so you just have to wait till you get the letter from the CFC saying they have de-registered it.

I got mine as a standard rifle, and then ordered the tri-rail and vert grip later. I don't mind it with the standard forend, but i do prefer the tri-rail and vert grip.

I had originally just told Ian to thread the barrel, with the intent of putting an AAC blackout on it however I don't mind the factory FH back on it either. Gives it more of a factory look.

Very nice.

Awesome gun! Its too bad that the coolest non-restricted black rifles have to be converted from restricted to non-restricted. (acr and fn2000)

 

[JR Hartman]

I think that looks better with the longer barrel. very cool

 

[sharpsway]

Good looking rifle man, a little jealous honestly. Is it barrel length that makes these restricted or is it just because they're scary?

Yes, it's the barrel length that results in its restricted classification--16.7" I think? The only restricted rifles are either ARs or semi-autos with barrels shorter than 18.5". Everything else is non-restricted or prohibited.

I'm rusty on my math skills, but $850 for 1.8" so you can shoot coyotes. What a wonderful system we abide by.

I know, hey?

I'm not begrudging the OP for doing it. It's just so nonsensical the lengths we have to go to just to enjoy a gun like this anywhere but a range.
