Sorry, I have no first hand experience with that rifle. But a very good friend of mine and shooting buddy had the chance to shoot one while he was in Afghanistan (from the Belgian SF) and he loved it. He had only good things to say about it and said all that fuzz about bullpup triggers is not such a big deal in the real world. Accurate hits up to 300 meters are no problem at all. The SF guys like it a lot too. They completely switched from the FNC to the FN2000.

My friend was no stranger to bullpup rifles though, the Luxembourg Army uses the Steyr AUG. With which shooting at 300 meters was ridiculously easy also according to him...

Bullpups may not have match type triggers, but they work well for combat shooting.
