I'm considering buying a PS90, but I have a few questions: Is $1,700 a fair price?, whats the going market price? I know the P90 can come ith in integrated laser, is that available on the PS90?, if so how much extra would it cost? I see the standard PS90, and PS90 Tri-Rail, and I see those 2 models available, but I also see pictures of some P90's that appear to be standard configuration NOT Tri-Rail that have a rail to eighther side, is this a seperate model? Is the PS90 available in this configuration?, if not can it be redily modified? I want the origional configuration, I actualy LIKE the stock sights, nor do I want to have to buy an expensive optic for my already expensive weapon, but at the same time I would like to be able to mount a light, and maybe a laser, so this would be the ideal configuration. This is what I'm talking about:  I assume thats a PS90, as opposed to a P90, but is it? But this is the only configuration I can find:  I see little holes on the side ware the rail should be, are those simply screw holes to attch the rail yourself?, or are they something else? If they are screw holes where can I find the rails? What part of the PS90 is considered the firearm, the upper reciever, or the lower reciever?, if it's the lower reciever is it the right half, or the left half? What are the Ballistics of SS195LF out of a 16 inch barrel?, whats the muzzle velocity?, whats the muzzle energy?, how much calibrated ballistics geleton will it penetrate?, how much calibrated ballistics geleton will it penetrate after first passing through a Level 3A vest? Does the SS195LF expand at all, or does it behave like an FMJ?, are any of the other bullet types more effective out of a 16 inch barrel than the SS195LF? Does Wolf make 5.7x28 yet, or anyone else?, if so what kind? Is there ANY SS190 available anywhere? I know it's "Armor Piercing", and hence illegal to import for mere peasents, but I have seen single rounds before in "cartridge collections", how is that getting in?, wheres it comeing from?, can I get it anywhere even as single rounds? Are the stock sights adjustable? Are there differant kinds of stock sights?, the gunshop near me has 2 PS90's in 1 black one, and 1 green one, the sights on the black one are fuzzy, and I don't think they illuminate, the sights on the green one are VERY sharp, and illuminate when you move to a dark area. I want the black one, but I like the sights on the Green one ALOT better, do the differant colors normaly come with differant sights?, or is the Black one simply older than the Green one, and the sights have since been updated? If there is an issue with the stock sights, or anything else for that matter will FN Fix it?, if so for how much?, hows there warrenty, and customor service? Are there any physical differances between the Green, and Black ones like there is with the Styer Aug?, can I simply swap the upper receiver from the Green one, with the Black one?, if I do that will it impact any future collectors value like it did with the Styer Aug? (A Black Styer Aug is worth more than a Green one, but only if it's an origional Black one, not simply a Green one that was died, or swapped with a black lower reciever.) Is $22.50 for a box of 50 rounds a fair price? If $50 per 50 round magazine a fair price? Are there any politicly correct 5 round "hunting" magazines available?, is there a way to temporarily block a 50 rounder to 5 rounds? (This is to allow for hunting in magazine capacity restricted states, and locales.) Will the normal P90 suppressor fit a PS90?, if not what kinds of suppressors will fit a PS90? Can 5.56 suppressors be used with 5.7x28? (Michigan may become a suppressor state if our Attorney General ever gets around to it.) I heard something about the barrel really being SBR length, but a long tube for the flash suppressor is permanently attached to bring it out to legal length, kindof like the AR-15's with 11.4 inch barrel, and a 5.5 inch flash surpressor permanently attached, is this true, or is it a true 16 inch barrel? Will a P90 barrel fit a PS90?, or are they machined differantly? Whats the physical differance between a P90, and a PS90 beyond the obviouse of the PS90 being semi auto only, I don't see any external differences, so what is it just a differant trigger pack? Can the PS90 be used in most indoor ranges? Anything else I should know about the PS90, or 5.7x28 ammunition? |

Quoted: I'm considering buying a PS90, but I have a few questions: Is $1,700 a fair price?, whats the going market price? Regular right sight models goes lower than that. If it has USSS (black sight) sight, 1700 seems right I know the P90 can come ith in integrated laser, is that available on the PS90?, if so how much extra would it cost? laserex is what laser is called. You can get more detail informations at http://ps90forum.com/forum/ http://fivesevenforum.com/forums/index.php I see the standard PS90, and PS90 Tri-Rail, and I see those 2 models available, but I also see pictures of some P90's that appear to be standard configuration NOT Tri-Rail that have a rail to eighther side, is this a seperate model? Is the PS90 available in this configuration?, if not can it be redily modified? I want the origional configuration, I actualy LIKE the stock sights, nor do I want to have to buy an expensive optic for my already expensive weapon, but at the same time I would like to be able to mount a light, and maybe a laser, so this would be the ideal configuration. This is what I'm talking about: If you goto FN website, there are P90 triple rail I see little holes on the side ware the rail should be, are those simply screw holes to attch the rail yourself?, or are they something else? If they are screw holes where can I find the rails? You can buy a triple rail that they sell and put it on a righsight or usss sight PS90 What are the Ballistics of SS195LF out of a 16 inch barrel?, whats the muzzle velocity?, whats the muzzle energy?, how much calibrated ballistics geleton will it penetrate?, how much calibrated ballistics geleton will it penetrate after first passing through a Level 3A vest? those 2 forum will have all the info Does the SS195LF expand at all, or does it behave like an FMJ?, are any of the other bullet types more effective out of a 16 inch barrel than the SS195LF? Does Wolf make 5.7x28 yet, or anyone else?, if so what kind? Is there ANY SS190 available anywhere? I know it's "Armor Piercing", and hence illegal to import for mere peasents, but I have seen single rounds before in "cartridge collections", how is that getting in?, wheres it comeing from?, can I get it anywhere even as single rounds? those 2 forums will have all the info for all the ammo question Are the stock sights adjustable? I believe they sell the spacer for the stock Are there differant kinds of stock sights?, the gunshop near me has 2 PS90's in 1 black one, and 1 green one, the sights on the black one are fuzzy, and I don't think they illuminate, the sights on the green one are VERY sharp, and illuminate when you move to a dark area. I want the black one, but I like the sights on the Green one ALOT better, do the differant colors normaly come with differant sights?, or is the Black one simply older than the Green one, and the sights have since been updated? I don't know about sight, but if you are talking about the Color of the stock, there are green and black. Black came out after Green model. Again, if you are talking about the color of the stock, itis probably preference. If there is an issue with the stock sights, or anything else for that matter will FN Fix it?, if so for how much?, hows there warrenty, and customor service? FN has good customer service. I guess they will make a call that it is covered or not Are there any physical differances between the Green, and Black ones like there is with the Styer Aug?, can I simply swap the upper receiver from the Green one, with the Black one?, if I do that will it impact any future collectors value like it did with the Styer Aug? (A Black Styer Aug is worth more than a Green one, but only if it's an origional Black one, not simply a Green one that was died, or swapped with a black lower reciever.) I do not believe there are not dimentional difference between those 2 colors. Cost, I believe, it is about same now. In the future, higher demand color will cost more. So, itis hard to make a call which will cost more in the future. Anywys, you can always do a dye job on a green ones. Is $22.50 for a box of 50 rounds a fair price? ss195 and 197 now costs about $17.50-20 average. If $50 per 50 round magazine a fair price? YES, it is fair price. Are there any politicly correct 5 round "hunting" magazines available?, is there a way to temporarily block a 50 rounder to 5 rounds? (This is to allow for hunting in magazine capacity restricted states, and locales.) Some sells 10round magazines for PS90. You should check the FN forums and gunbrokers. I dont know about the 5 rounders. Will the normal P90 suppressor fit a PS90?, if not what kinds of suppressors will fit a PS90? Can 5.56 suppressors be used with 5.7x28? (Michigan may become a suppressor state if our Attorney General ever gets around to it.) No idea on it. those 2 forum will have all the info I heard something about the barrel really being SBR length, but a long tube for the flash suppressor is permanently attached to bring it out to legal length, kindof like the AR-15's with 11.4 inch barrel, and a 5.5 inch flash surpressor permanently attached, is this true, or is it a true 16 inch barrel? No idea. again, those 2 forum will have all the info. Can the PS90 be used in most indoor ranges? That really depends on the ranges. Some do, but some don't. We usually call new indoor ranges that we are not familar with prior to taking our FiveSeven or PS90. Anything else I should know about the PS90, or 5.7x28 ammunition? Best thing is join those 2 forums. There are tons and tons of informations. I think a lot of people know more than I do, and probably can answer all the questions. GOOD LUCK  |
