FN Five-seveN Review After 8 Years

About this video

Colion revisits the FN 5-7 handgun after reviewing it years ago when newer to firearms. He discusses the pistol’s unique characteristics including its rifle-like ammunition, 20-round capacity, distinctive plastic-covered design, and exceptionally light recoil. While Colion notes challenges like less common ammunition availability and higher cost compared to traditional calibers, he views it as a viable option for home defense and concealed carry for those willing to accept these trade-offs.

Key takeaways

• Colion describes the FN 5-7 as having very soft recoil compared to traditional handgun calibers, making it approachable for new shooters and easy to shoot quickly and accurately
• According to Colion, ammunition selection is critical for self-defense use, with different types available for range practice versus defensive purposes, though ammo is less common and more expensive than standard pistol calibers
• Colion explains the gun features a 20-round magazine capacity, unique side-mounted safety selector, good trigger with short reset, and full-size profile comparable to standard pistols
