Is the Ruger-57 worth it?

With minimal recoil (less than most 9mm pistols) and great capacity, the Ruger-57 could be a great choice for those reasons. The Ruger-57 is well worth $800 in my mind, and it’s backed by Ruger. I look forward to sticking a small red dot on one and seeing how well it would shoot with a finer, crisper aiming point.

Is 5.7 A good gun?

Although not exactly a rifle round, the FN 5.7x28mm cartridge is also not quite a pistol round either. Clearly, the Five-seveN is truly a unicorn of the gun world. It is a lightweight polymer pistol that shoots FN’s own 5.7x28mm round. Five-SeveN Sure is a Nice Looking Gun!

Why is FN 57 so expensive?

The grip texture is extremely aggressive. Either you will love it, or hate it.

Is the FN 57 magazine the same as the AR?

What are the wings on the FN 57?

The FN 57 has front and rear slide-serrations as well as “wings” at the very rear of the gun that make the slide easy to grip. The stippling on the grip is extremely aggressive to the point that it leaves impressions in my hand from gripping it firmly.
