Same here in Idaho, but the link works now - no need to wait for 6/20 :laugh:

But does not work now.

Any chance you can re-post the pictures?

Well don't titallate us like that - expand on that statement - ie. do you anticipate doing so this year? :huh:

Doesn't he sometimes run a special price deal on accurizing jobs in the fall months?

I'd be interested in one.

^ Thanks, I saw that after I posted my question. :thumb:

You might want to notify the company about that anomali.

That's nice for a Glock, but what about a holster for a 5.7?

That's what I said to my neighbor's wife. :lmao:

OK, thanks.

Did you look at the website? We have accurizing, night sights, short reach triggers and even photo dipping for all FsN including MKII Depending on what you select about a month. The one on top has our short trigger. Thanks, that's a reasonable turn around time. Thinking about your accurizing job. D...

Hi. Your "Accurizing" links above are not working. Are you still accurizing 5.7 MK II's?

If so, what is the cost and turn around time?

:agree: To each his own. One of my neighbor's wife has fake . . . . . . . :lmao:

Any word or info on the poly one?

I see this post is a couple of months old with no replies. I clicked on the link to the ammo, and saw that several of the people who purchased it reported having problems with the rounds failing to chamber properly/jamming, and stovepiping.

^ ^ ^ Wow, prices really are coming down!

SHEEPDOG wrote:Smith & Wesson M&P 40

Yea, can you believe a fatal shot at that distance with an M&P 40? Hel, that's my carry piece if I'm not carrying the 5.7, and I don't think I could hit the entire target at 300+ ft, let alone the bullseye. :lmao:

ALWAYS beware of sellers on Armslist. I discovered 3 different scammers on that website over a period of 2 months selling 5.7's when I was looking for one, and worked with their IT person to get their ads removed, and them banned.

Simply said, some states/areas do not allow magazines that hold more than 10 rds.

Yes - all black.

From what I've seen, 5.7 ammo prices are down all over the place.

Prices are definately on the downswing. I paid $1120 3 months ago, and a friend just got one for $1050.

Wow, it's up to $1,725 today with 21 hrs to go - is that your bid?

But his link has some very informative posts, re cracked mags.

Any word on availabity yet?

There's nothing wrong with your vision. :thumb:

Cool! :thumb:

Did something this morning that I've never done before... Went duck hunting. Got one too - although I am told it's a "nasty, fish-eating duck" called a Common Merganser. But I shot it so I should at least try it, guess I should be researching duck recipes... Yuk. Follow Oldbindlestiff's recipe. :ag...

I think we are all in for a rude awakening with these people and their religious beliefs. But this is America, and we have always welcomed all religions.

Yea, those are neat little lights. :thumb:

34285 - about 200 miles NW of you on the left coast.

They do not list a holster for the 5.7.

Cool - I'm going to be looking for that!

Wow, nice! Mind disclosing the cost of the barrel and surpressor?

Does EA accurize the PS90? :ponder:

Very nice! :thumb:

Thanks, I was wondering about your Tap, tap, taparoo, etc., too. :huh:

What are the orange tips rounds, I'm not familiar with them?

Yea, I'd like to know about your second go around also, as I've been looking at one.

Why don't you post his info here - there's always a bunch of us looking and buying if the price is right - and prices have been dropping recently!

Well I found out there are no limits at the range I shoot at here in SW Florida either. :patriot:

Been over 3 months now - have you had the Kimber out again? And?

Are you saying it was "cold" where you made the reloads? Like in a cold garage or basement? And or were all of the components cold when you did the reloads? And warm when you fired the 5 shots?

Looks slow here to me too - other FN sites not so much tho.

Instructions on how to post pics are linked in my sig line. I would guess the MkII has break in issues similar to the USG but even so, it's good to know the 198s served you well. Thanks for the picture loading advice, I'll have a look at your link. I'm a haf-assed photographer and should have been ...

While sighting in my new FN 5.7 Mk II today at the range, I fired 60 rounds of 197 and 60 rounds of 198, and was surprised at both the reliability and accuracy of each. All rounds fired were FN factory rounds - the target was set at 35 ft, and I made no sight adjustments while putting these first ro...

Not that I have ever heard of. Someone may make a .17 tho - or a .22 mag?

Well, I ordered one of those, and one of these http://www.kangaroocarry.com/products/air-marshal3" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;. Not a lot of money involved in either, so hopefully I will be happy with one or the other.

Wow, that's it - or at least similar. Thanks for your comments and insight. I also have an S&W Shield
that may fit - does the material have some elasticity, and does it fasten/come together with Velcro?

Scam? I've never used Armslist so I wouldn't really know. I don't mean to hi-jack this ammo thread, but one thing that I learned recently is that you have to be really careful when buying on Armslist. I was dealing with 3 different 5.7 Mk II sellers on Armslist over the past 4 weeks, and ALL 3 were...

Thanks. In searching thru the forum, I saw that one, and while it is similar, that's not it. The one I'm looking for is very similar, and I'm pretty sure I saw it on this Forum. As I reall, it was a belly band kind of holster and cream tone color - kind of like skin color. And Ohio sticks in my mind...

X3. Just got a new Mk2 and all 3 mags were the new style.

I practice with both 197 & 198 - mostly 197, but when I carry, I carry 198. :agree:

Somewhere on here I saw an unusual holster that for lack of a better description, looked like a very wide Ace Bandage and fit under a shirt. It would wrap around your torso, below your pectoral chest muscles, and along the top of your stomach. There was a pistol pocket under your armpit. Anyone reme...

Not here, when it is available the price has been pretty steady with exception of one store. There is a LGS that is still charging a ridiculous price & the price has been increasing. That may change though, a Sportman's Warehouse has just opened in town & they stock 5.7 ammo. LGS is going to have t...

Curious if the combustible chemicals packed in the rear of the L191's cause any damage to the internals of the 5.7's barrel?

There is another thread about that company & how hard it is to get refund or product from them http://www.fivesevenforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=13203" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; I don't know if they are still in business but from the looks of it, they will make good on it - eve...

How "custom" is the Kydex custom holster? What did they, or you do to it to make it fit your MK II?

duh. Thanks. :wall:

Looking for one of the newer, all black FN 5.7, Mk II's. Will consider a used/fired one. Thanks.

Refunds for what?

Bones, if you would like to move or are willing to part with anything 5.7, I would be interested. Or if you know someone that I may reach out to that might have rare ammo, 5.7 pistols,documentation or advertisements, again I would appreciate them contacting me at 305-218-0300. I am trying to work h...

Do they also make a case just for the 57? Suppose I could look it up myself. And what about other manufactures of soft cases for the 57 - is there a consensus for a good one?

Ah ha. Now I understand - thanks for the explanation.

My guess is that they started producing it back then in anticipation of a demand that did not materialize. :skep:

Just bought 10 boxs of SS197SR for $23.5/box, and 10 boxs of SS198LF for $26.10/box. The 198 price really caught my eye, as it had a Buy it Now price of $350 on gunbroker, but was listed in a no reserve auction! A previous 10 boxs of 198 from the same seller went for $266.00.

198 for me too, as it's the most readily available of the hot ammo.

New here, and interesting to learn a little about the history. :thumb:
