On 5.7x28mm Ammo For The PS90 and FN Five-seveN

FN Herstal PS90 rifle chambered in 5.7x28mm.

The firearms-buying frenzy continues unabated. Spurred by the Chinese Flu and civil unrest in many major metropolises around the United States, gun owners old and new are buying up whatever inventory they can get their hands on. The stalwart 9mm pistols and 5.56mm AR-15s are picked up as soon as the dealer stocks them. Even favored “B Caliber“ weapons are looking a little sparse. Ironically, it’s the normally-rare firearms that seem to pop up in the inventory and stick around for a few days, such as FN PS90, FN Five-seveN, and Ruger 57, all chambered in the rather exotic 5.7x28mm caliber…

And spreading the gospel even. You’re probably perusing the interwebs, and you’ll see all manner of tac’d out dudes and dudettes and some of their guns will have a funny-looking pipe hanging off the front.

5.56 versus .223 - What's The Difference?

.223 Remington on the left, and M855 5.56mm on the right ammo.

You made the decision to be a citizen, got lucky and scored yourself that AR-15 you’ve been eyeing since the Chinese Flu panic broke out. Urban unrest hustled things along of course. Now you gotta feed your black rifle. Chances are your local gun shop led you to some offerings from Federal or Horandy. But those 100 rounds or so aren’t enough, especially these days. So now you’re hitting the interwebs, looking high and low for ammo, any ammo. Inventory is paltry, but you’ll see varying quantities of 5.56mm and .223 - they look the same, and your rifle can probably eat both - but there’s differences. What are they? And more importantly, is it safe to run both? Read on…

10-24 Products Runner's Rig Review

The 10-24 Products Runner's Rig and a Heckler & Koch VP9 9mm pistol.

A few weeks ago, I covered the importance of staying fit in these unusual times, and also being armed while jogging. My quick-and-dirty solution was to employ a gun belt and holster combination while dressed around the weapon. Not ideal, but it worked. Soon after publication, several kind people out there suggested more practical solutions, including various “rigs” and bags. I didn’t act on any of them, due to the usual chaos of modern life. It took my enterprising wife to move the staus quo along, and she presented me with the 10-24 Products Runner’s Rig for Father’s Day…

We know the pro-Second Amendment politicians and candidates on the national scene. Rand Paul, Ted Cruz, Thomas Massie, and so forth. Candidates and serving politicians who aren’t afraid to pose with a loaded black rifle in their campaign literature. They’ve helped stymie the efforts of the opposition at the national level. However, the opposition knows that all politics is local, and has redoubled their efforts on the state and local level to pass gun control laws, regardless of their Constituionality. Fortunately, there’s determined pro-Second men and women running for office at those levels, determined candidates like South Carolina State Senate District 29 Candidate Ronald Page.
