This is Part 2 of a 4-part table-top review of the FN Five-Seven pistol by Nutnfancy. The video highlights the pistol's innovative design, comparing it favorably to the Glock 17 in terms of weight, firepower, trigger, sights, ruggedness, reliability, accuracy, and ergonomics. It details the advantages of the proprietary 5.7x28mm round, including its flat trajectory, Kevlar penetration, high velocity, low recoil, and high magazine capacity. Downsides such as ammo availability, cost, reloading difficulty, and limited accessory support are also discussed. The reviewer acknowledges the round's potential as a 'decent manstopper' but notes the pistol's high cost and wide grip. The video concludes that while the design is largely a hit, its long-term success, like the Glock's, depends on wider adoption by law enforcement and military, and increased popularity of the 5.7x28mm round with other manufacturers. The reviewer gives it a Likeability Scale rating of 7 out of 10.
