Check out my FNs
Those are nice. I wonder if my FN would like to hang out with them. . She's just a little FNS-9 but she does like to go 'bang, bang'

I like the optic because it uses fiber optics and tritium - so, no electronics or batteries. Its always on. This latest version, Revision M, has solved most of the washout issues these types of sites have previously had. I had tried a Trijicon RX30 and the previous version of the Mepro a few years ago, and did not like them. This new version works extremely well |

Dang... Some nice looking rifles. Never knew about Mepro. They're like the Trijicon competitor it seems.

Yes. After trying the Trijicon reflex sight, I think the Mepro one is better.
It's actually the official optic of the Israeli military. However, they use the bullseye version. I've tried the Bullseye reticule at the range on a Tavor before, and I did not like it as much. At 50 yards, it covered too much of the target to shoot a good group. The triangle reticule is easier to shoot with IMHO. |

Nice guns, but those 16" barrels look goofy. I'd drop $400 and some Form 1s and make them look right.

It was cheaper and easier to change out the barrel on the PS90 years ago than it is now. I actually had money down on a short barreled receiver like 5-6 years ago thru CMMG (figured I could just swap receivers back and forth into the stock - and, I wouldn't void the FN warranty that way either).
I paid CMMG the money for the new receiver and did the trust route. They sent their paperwork into the ATF. After 2+ months, I called to check on their status. I was told by a CMMG rep that they had accidentally sent in their expired FFL #... They had just resent everything the week before I called. At that point, I got my money back and decided not to worry about it. It was kinda aggravating. I'm fine with the PS90 as is. I don't like the strings tied to the weapon that has been short barreled (can't cross state lines w/o permission). I get extra velocity with the extra 6 inches of barrel too. Even with the 16" barrel, the gun is shorter than a short barreled AR15. I have no plans to change the barrel |
