  1. An odd logic train to ride is trying to say that a round that does less damage than a 9mm FMJ is somehow going to be a reliable man stopper.

     

    So, your saying that the .223 has superior stopping power?

     

    And are you speaking of P90 ammo we can buy or the P90 ammo the military can get?

     

    If was just about stopping power then we should scrap all the M4s in service and replace them with AKs. :)

  2. Okay, why would you use a 5.7 when you can use a 5.56? Any particular reason?

     

    I have tried the 1911 and know why police departments don't use them. I don't either. Spotty reliability turns me off.

     

    Well in the civilian market there's no real reason.. the round does get the job done and low weight and recoil. I suppose if you can kill a bear with it you can kill a person with it. :shrug:

     

    In the military the 5.7 round was superior and designed to defeat soft body armor better than other personal defense weapons.

     

    But again, this just makes it different and not a POS as stated.

     

    Is the H&K USP a "pos" because more agencies don't use it than do?

  3. Personally I'd get one with a rail and put a T-1 on it. That's what I've done. Great little bullpup. Though I have a number of ARs and a SOCOM 16 (in a EBR stock) this is my "bugout" weapon. Combined with a FiveseveN on your hip you can travel very light packing three 50 rd mags in a thigh pouch and two 30 rd mags for 57. With mags already in both weapons that's 290 rds and you barely notice it.

     

    Oh by the way, it's also lots of fun to shoot, easy to clean and totally reliable. FN weapon weapons are far from POS. Of course, not likely them is certainly w/in anyone's rights.

     

    Thanks.. I would agree that this would be much better with a three rail option added and from what I've read it isn't hard to do.

     

    If I lived in Texas or some sane state it would be a no brainer.. trying to decide if it's worth the hassle here in lame-o California. (although I'm not going to live here forever)...

  4. just because a weapon is developed and made, DOES NOT mean there's a place for it!!! it can still be worthless!!;) and no one is saying YOU have to think its ugly, i just personally do. ive never owned 1 but it sounds like STRANGER DANGER summed it up pretty well that it seems to be a POS!! and once again, it belongs on the set of PLANET OF THE APES!!!!!you asked and it seems you dont like my "thoughts" on it.

     

    No need to get all upset.. just because I don't agree with you doesn't mean "I don't like your thoughts on it".. that's sort of passive-aggressive you know.. :)

     

    You also seem to fixated on the Planet of the Apes.. as I recall the apes won.

     

    Lastly, I find your criteria for something being a POS amusing..

     

    But, like all opinions I thank you for giving yours..

  5. Buy it and sell it if you hate it. I sold a used one with the tri rail, and 6 50 round magazines for 2400 dollars to some guy on gunbroker. He stomped the BIN button.

    It had the crap clear reticle too.

     

    The only use for this gun would be in a SBR config. Full auto would be better.

    The trigger is terrible. I hated the design of the safety. It was very difficult to mount a light on and have momentary control over the output. My thumbs hit each other when holding it properly. It felt slower to point than my SBR Ar15 due to how close your hands are when holding it. I didn't like the magazine design. It was slow to index a new magazine, and slap it into place. Fat guys (not me) complained that the brass was bouncing off their beer belly after every shot. It is a very difficult round to reload. Ammunition prices are on par with .223.

    I couldn't get over the ergonomics. So it had to go.

     

    The clear reticle flat out sucks. It needs an Aimpoint T1 bad.

     

    That's the bad. The good is it is super reliable. Never had a single failure. 50 rounds on tap is awesome. The weight is minimal. There is no recoil. The round is potent in CQB ranges. It is very easy to maintain.

     

    I'm amazed it is allowed in californiastan.

     

    That was my point.. in an unfired condition this seems great for a buy and flip.

     

    It's allowed in this craptastic state with a 10-rnd mag.. which is so stupid it's actually funny.. It would be sad to even own one here.

     

    I found it comfortable enough to hold and shoot (not this one.. a friends).. a bit odd and it took getting use to. And yea, it's a heavy trigger. I think because of who it was initially designed for.

  6. yes but an AK still resembles a normal weapon.and if you'll notice, i stated to each their own!! and you were asking for opinions!!:) but to be truthful, it may shoot well and have all the umpa loompa good design elements, but it is UGLY!!! and everything ever made that is or was great, are most usually always the same looking for the most part. cars, tv's, drills, hammers etc. this gun is nothing like any other weapon made and belongs on the planet of the apes set!!;) it usually is always bought by that guy who wants to be different!! ill stick w/ my trusty ol m4!!

     

    So it's ugly because it's different? lol.. ok

     

    I like my M4 as well.. but give the reason they developed this weapon I do see a place for it.

     

    And personally I don't find it "ugly".. but like I said, that's subjective.

  7. They are very reliable, accurate, and fun. Beyond that, I don't see much in them.

     

    They are also fairly lightweight, compact, and have low recoil and a great ejection system. This is all especially true of the non-civi version. How big would an M4 with a 50 round mag be compared to an P90?

  8. i do have to say, this gun is the most stupid, worthless, ugly waste of money one can buy!!! :eek: but to each their own!!;) i truely cant believe people spend their hard earned money on useless obsurd designed weapons!!! they're good for the movie business and thats it!!

     

    Really? lol.. quite a few organizations use the FN90. At least FN tried to innovate rather than just imitate. The weapon features several very good design elements.

     

    As for looks, that's in the eye of the beholder. Some would call an AK ugly..

  9. Thanks.. if I lived outside of CA I would jump on this PS90.. here in "10 round" land it would just be sad. Still tempted though.

     

    It's funny, I didn't notice until I went shooting and then it was like. "hey, something's not right here..."

     

    I need the night sights anyways.

  10. Tanner's was selling them for $1275 a while back, new price is $1599 on the tri-rail model of the PS90.

     

    Hmm.. they seemed more expensive on Gunbroker.. they are certainly more here in CA. lol

     

    By the way, Trigicon (sp?) or Meprolight sights for my M4 since Benelli f-d up and didn't paint one of my dots white. (quality control???)

  11. Looks like a good deal. Does it have the USSS optic?

     

    There's a couple of companies out there that sell the tri-rail systems for other optics.

     

    I'm not sure if this has the white or the black optices.

     

    Still, it seems priced way under market from what I've seen. Isn't it?

  12. man.. it's such a good deal.. how can I pass it up???

     

    PS90, never fired

    TWO 50 round magazines (illegal to use here in CA, but I digress)

    And a shroud for the long barrel that looks like a silencer.

     

    For get this... $1,100!!!

     

    I just saw one at the gun show today and it was $1995 with a lousy 10 round magazine.

     

    Thoughts?

  13. Hey guys,

     

    I decided to keep the stock on my M1014 so I have a brand new NOS Benelli M4 pistol grip stock for sale. Like I said, it's brand new with zero flaws, never mounted.

     

    Price is $140 shipped and I will take Paypal (and pay the Paypal fees)

     

    Next Item..

     

    Benelli Nova tactical pump. 18.5" barrel, ghost ring sights, NEVER fired and I still have the original box. I would prefer to sell this locally and deliver most places in SoCal. I can ship but buyer pays the fee for the FFL to ship. The price is $270 obo and that's way cheaper than you can buy one for.

     

    Lastly...

     

    M4 magazine extension tube. I bought the $200 titanium one so I don't need this one. Tube and spring for $40 shipped (same deal with paypal).

    post here or email me at [email protected]

     

    Thanks!

  14. M4s sell here for just a touch over $1500 so the price isn't special.. but it's not bad either.

     

    You can easily add an extended mag (I just ordered the Titanium one)

     

    If you can afford it then you can get the collapsable stock.. I will have one for sale soon.

     

    Good luck and you'll love the M4

  15. Hey,

     

    I need to break down my M4 (M1014) but I don't have a manual.

     

    Mainly I need to remove the pistol grip since I have an M4 stock on the way and want to sell the M1014 stock and grip.

     

    Anyone have a walkthrough on how to strip it down to remove?

  16. I hate to see it go but need to sell my M4. This gun was bought about 2 years ago and has had minimal use. It still looks as new as the day I bought it. I have a EoTech HWS, a skeletonized telescoping stock, sling and Pellican case that can be sold with the gun or without. I do have the original stock that I can put back on if someone wants to buy the gun as I bought it new from the dealer. All of these items were bought new when I bought the gun. I do not have the packaging for any of these items so if you are looking for original boxes then your out of luck. I live in Riverside County CA. and will start taking offers immediately. Call me with any questions. Tony (951) 232-5139. I have a pic that I can mail you if you are interested. Thanks.

     

    A price would be nice.. I'm local...

  17. That serial number is only 13 ahead of mine...

     

    So the $1000 I paid for my super clean one was good deal I guess. lol

     

    I would have bought this in a heartbeat though..

     

    Buy the 1014 for a grand

    Flip the stock for $650

    By an M4 stock for $150

    Sell the M4/1014 for $1000 and make $500

     

    seems like a good plan to me.. :)

  18. actually that collapsible stock would be perfectly legal w/ the recoil tube w/only 1 notch. meaning it wouldnt collapse!! making it a fixed stock. so you'd actually only be getting the look of a c-stock. and by the looks of his pic, his m4 had a single notch stock.:D just saying.

     

     

    Oh, I know.. but if it doesn't collapse then what's the point?

     

    Besides, I can put the cash into parts that really do matter :)

  19. Nice, I remember your thread on this. I was thinking the Sidearmor rail.. would I need the long or short side rails?

     

    Also what light is that, I like that it's compact to the side of the gun. As I recally you have a pressure switch on the other side.

     

    What benefit is there to also having the surefire rail?

     

    For optics I was looking for something smaller. Is the T1 micro good? I guess I would need a short mount.

     

    Lastly, reccomend a good bolt lever and release button. The stock on is too tiny.

  20. Ya thats a score congratz. you never did respond to my question in the other thread. What is wrong with that stock in california?

     

    You can't make it functional.. ****, I'm surprised the whole weapon isn't banned in this stupid state.

     

    So now I have some $$$ for "add ons".. what to do first?
