I finally got to shoot the FN FS2000 that I'd bought awhile back. I asked Becky if I bought it, would she replace it and she said: "No", so I bought it.
When I brought it home, and I don't remember exactly when that was, I looked in the manual on how to disassemble it. The gun never made it out of the box until last night. It took me quite a bit of time to figure out what they were talking about and got it apart, oiled and back together again.
A lot of people are on vacation this week and the range was crazy this morning. I shot 5 rounds off-hand, and then out of respect for the people around me that were shooting 22LR (one even with a suppressor). I stopped.
After my replacement came in at noon, I let him shoot it. It worked well, appeared to be fairly accurate. His comment: "I'm sure I could shoot it better once I got used to the trigger pull." I'm sure he could too. It has a straight back trigger pull just like on a 1911. Actually, the trigger pull felt nothing like the Ed Brown 1911 I had with me.
Like most things from FN, it is expensive, over-engineered, but on the "cool scale" it gets a 9.5.
