Fabrique Nationale (FN) Five-seveN (Game Stats)

Fabrique Nationale (FN) Five-seveN
History:The Five-seveN pistol was designed as a complimentary sidearm for the P90 submachine-gun. The P90 and Five-seveN share the same ammunition, the 5.7x28mm SS190 cartridge. The key idea behind that ammunition and weapons is to provide good penetration against personnel, protected by modern body armour, while keeping weapons' weight, dimensions and recoil at reasonable levels.
