Yes, I know we have an FN forum but it IS a bullpup rifle. Anyway, I'm cross posting this since it's a little busier in here.



There was a post in General Discussion with a SBR'd PS90 with can. I already have a 5.56 can and have been on the fence for a long time about the PS90. I think I want one. However, I don't know the differences between the models. Where can they be had for a good price or even what is a good price to begin with? I do know that whatever model I get I will want to put a red dot on it. My most important concern and finally my question is that, can you buy the base model with the craptastic white dot sight and readily take it off and add a rail there for the mounting of previously mentioned red dot sight? If you can do that, where can one aquire a rail?





Also, who does work for the bbls? I'm going to want to SBR this thing.



Thanks for bearing with me. I appreciate all input.

I love this gun!  It's my "runner" gun that I use with Marathon Pro and Lightweight Pro.  I like it silenced, and since I use Ninja Pro as a third tier perk, it's great on maps like Favela.

This isn't GD, this is the Bullpup Forum.

Give the factory USG sight a look if you can. Excellent cheek wield good tritium illumination and very durable.
I have one PS with the white sight and 2 with the USG. Yea the white kinda sucks at times. Did a search and
found some railed models but they cost more than the ones with the USG optic

The cost difference is absolutely retarded.  My dealer can get me one with the USG sight for 1300.  I'll be ripping it off immediately and trading it in for a T-1 or clone thereof

What is so good about t1. not trying to start shit just asking.

$1300 would be a very good price. You'd be hard pressed to find one on Gun Broker at that price. Most I see are around $1450 and up.  



Barrels you can find through CMMG.



Magazine Parts is a cool place to check out for accessories.



I believe Promoted Pawn also makes some accessory rails for the PS90.

I just like the way they look. I like the Vortex Sparc as well and that's half the price. Just a nice petite red dot.

It's practically bullet proof, very light weight, has a huge battery life and honsestly you don't anything more on a PS90 than a 1x optic IMO.

Hmm, not sure.  It says they are down because of a glitch in their system.

TROS USA also offers parts and services for the PS90, including SBRing the factory barrel without the need to purchase a new barrel.

Well the USG sight is all those things with no batteries or switches. If you need a red dot though USG is not
for you.

Has Magazine Parts turned their reputation around?  They seem to have been competing with Botach for sketchy business practices.  Booted off fnforum.net.  Just be wary before ordering from them.

Thanks for the heads up.

I didn't like the factory dot-sight so got the tri-rail.  An Aimpoint Micro is perfect.  Got the short barrel from CMMG, no worries about chrome peeling with a cut-down.

After spending as much as the gun + sight + tax stamp cost no reason to scrimp on the barrel cost.  

FNH should only sell PS90s as SBRs.  Really a great gun, even for us non-ninjas.

That was smart. I don't like cutting a barrel either for the same reasons.  The T1 is nice, because personally I think the USG sight is too busy for me. I like that single red dot.  Although something that I think would be real nice would be to try out one of those new RMR's from Trijicon on a PS90.  



One thing you might want to think about buying that really isn't that expensive, but does make a difference is the extended cocking handle.

I was under the impression that if you sbr the gun, the warranty is voided. New barrel, cutting the old barrel, doesn't matter.

And the PS90 is a great gun. Very reliable, unique, there's no other gun like it in the world. It's a fun little shooter.

This thread is worthless without pics.

I like the USG black reticle.
