Hi Everyone,
@American Lockpicker - Small world.
Yes, this guy is a good friend of mine, he is a very progun person. He also has in his ownership, a FNP 90, an original in select-fire model with suppressor, laser, and red dot holo sight and about 20 mags and over 5000 rounds. The FNP90 came in a leather case. And was presented to his late father in or around 1994 when his father was the president of Pakistan. I too own 2 FN 5.7s, will either be buying a Sig X6 PPC or another FN in OD Green. I have one in black, D.Tan, and soon the OD Green on as well.

Welcome to the forum Moeen! Very interesting information you shared about your friend and his father. So the guy owns a P90 in Pakistan eh? Perhaps I'm living in the wrong country. I would love to hear your perspective on things in that area. I think I read on your forum that your special forces group uses FN weaponry?

Hello Everyone,
Thanks to everyone for welcoming me.
@F1V3-53V3N - Well, firearms here cost us a lot of money. Some oddly enough do NOT cost as much as they do over there. For example, I own a Ruger 10/22 Select Fire in a short barrel, worth only about 2000/usd here; whereas if I am correct John Norrell sells his registered kits for over 8000/usd. Or the fact that I also own a Thompson 1928 select fire with 2 drum mags and paid less than a 1000 dollars for it! An HK MP5SD OEM NIB Germany can be had here for about 10000/usd (price recently hiked up by dealers - used to be only 6000/usd). We have licensing requirements - two kinds exist: PB (Prohibited Bore) or NPB (Non Prohibited Bore). PB contains anything full auto (stens, AKs, G3s, MP5s, Augs, and etc) and NPB contains permissions to own semi-auto anything including shotguns etc.
Ammo is very very expensive here.... I pay about 60 cents per 9mm round. And .22lr costs us about .17cents a round.
Our special forces adopted the FN 57 in the late 90s (Navy) and more recently the Airforce did the same. Most coppers carry MP5Ks and some personnel have been carrying the Steyr AuGs for ages now. But our standard has always been the HK G3.
My friend in the video is an avid hunter. He has many side-by-side Holland & Holland, Churchhill, James Purdey & Sons shotguns. He also competes in events; however, our shooting competition methods are outdated. I have been trying to get people involved in IPSC; however, the norm still seems to be the olympic style shooting events.
