FN Five-seveNŽ MK2

I used to always want one of these.

High magazine capacity, flat shooting, accurate, high velocity and armor piercing.

In a pistol.

And unnecessary

In a time of universal deceit — telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

No evidence whatsoever it can be attributed to George Orwell or Eric Arthur Blair (in fact the same guy)

Practically everything is unnecessary.  Even more so when you've got a cool gun - you can just shoot people and take whatever you want.

It has weirdly high velocity, and shoots flat, so, unlike most pistols, you can be on target at 20m and 200m.

And it's armor piercing. And holds 20 rounds. I always thought it was very cool.

Armor piercing ammo in this caliber is unavailable in the US.

By Armor Piercing it means it can defeat some kevlar vests, not that it will stop a Tank. My wife tried on her sons vest (Federal Agent) and was surprised it only covers vital organs. You still feel very vulnerable in one, not bullet proof.

I'm not a fan of Plastic Guns anyway but the price on these is at least double what it should be. Twenty rounds is only a few rounds over full size polymer handgun standard capacity magazines so nothing to get excited about.

Yeah but if your concern is to defeat a vest:

a moving target is not a piece of paper at 15 metres.

You aim for the easiest to hit area.

On a person that is the torso.
