The 5.7×28 renaissance continues with two new ammo options from FN. One is the SS200 defensive load available to civilian and governmental purchasers alike, and the other is a more affordable training load. Let’s dive into the specifics. 5.7×28 @ TFB: [Read More…]
Welcome everyone to the 23rd edition of ‘Hot Gat or Fudd Crap?’, one of our many series here on TFB. If you’re new to the series, this is where we look at the most obscure firearms that are actually for sale and ask the question – is this gat a sweet [Read More…]
Dan Haga Designs is specialized in making accessories for firearms that don’t have much aftermarket support such as the FN PS90 carbine (the civilian version of FN P90). The company has recently made two announcements on their social media pages. First, they have [Read More…]
Strike Industries has just released a series of integrated Ring Sights for the FN Herstal PS90 civilian rifle, and P90 submachine gun. There are four different versions, each one different from another in terms of power options, reticles, and back up power [Read More…]
Wait. Just hear me out. Before you start yelling at your computer screen or phone about “abominations” or “hideousness” I’d like you to take a closer look at the detail that went into modifying this one-of-a-kind FN PS-90. And yes, this [Read More…]
At this point, we’ve talked about 25 different intermediate and full power calibers as part of a series comparing different types of modern small arms ammunition. However, one subject not yet thoroughly covered is rounds for personal defense weapons (PDWs). These [Read More…]
The FN Five-seveN pistol is chambered for the same 5.7x28mm cartridge as the famous P90 PDW, but the short barrel of the pistol results in less velocity. Still, the Five-seveN is perhaps the perfect sidearm for a man using the P90 as a primary. It also makes for a great range gun as the low [Read More…]
Amal Graafstra has been biohacking since 2000. For those not familiar with biohacking, it is the implantation of a device to interact with technology. The basic ones I have heard of are magnets embedded in finger tips. Other examples involved injecting a small RFID into [Read More…]
The 5.7x28mm cartridge is certainly a divisive round. On one hand, you have people making ludicrously grandiose claims about its effectiveness, while others simply write it off as a gimmick or overpriced .22WMR from Belgium. A long time ago I wrote the PS90 off as a pointless, but fun rifle (having [Read More…]
The P90 is famous for being weird looking. It has made countless appearances in sci-fi flicks, and serious appearances in the hands of groups like the US Secret Service. We have used a lot of firearms on the run and gun course, but none this strange or unconventional. So, how will it perform? [Read More…]
The FN Herstal P90 personal defense weapon is one of the strangest looking weapon system on the planet, so it is no wonder that it pops up in so many movies and television shows. The gun feeds from a 50 round magazine and is extremely compact. In this field strip we take down a PS90, […] [Read More…]
Since the first article received a fairly enthusiastic response, I have decided to continue the series on unusual firearms feeding mechanisms. Many of the devices I will cover are associated with equally interesting firearms, but for the sake of brevity I will be [Read More…]
If there ever was a gun that you could use as the poster-child of being aesthetically odd, the P90 and its semi auto counterpart, the PS90 certainly would be very strong candidates. The bullpup design of FN Herstal’s P90 make it look like a science fiction [Read More…]
The FN PS90 Carbine is the consumer-legal version of the FN P90 Personal Defense Weapon. The PS90 removes the full auto fire control group and increases the barrel length from 10″ to 16″. The same compact bullpup stock is used on the PS90 as on the original [Read More…]
