The FN 5.7 has a fairly long list of desirable features, like fast bullet, low recoil, less drop at long ranges, tendency to not go thru walls, etc
It also has some distractions like penetration, cost ...
Now we have an ammo manufacturing company producing a very light (40g) non-lead bullet that gets 2000 fps velocity in 9 mm. So, on the surface it would seem that it should perform very much like the FN 5.7 with our existing guns, like G17
So, is this the answer for people that would like a 5.7 and not have the cost of expensive ammo and expensive gun?
Maybe, a good choice for home defense in like an apartment? Or in for carry in urban areas?
I have some doubts about it as a general replacement for our normal carry ammo, any thoughts?
