FNH Q&A - May 30, 2008 - (ANSWERED)

[ShipWreck]

Post your questions for FN here - Limited to the first 10 questions.

I hate to nag, but here are a couple of housekeeping rules for the Q&A session:

1. Each person can ask 1 question. This has been ignored by some members in the past - but there will be multiple Q&A sessions in the future. You can get your other questions answered at future sessions. If you ask multiple questions, only the first question will be considered.

2. Please be courteous in the wording of your question, even if you are upset about a particular issue.

3. Please read through previous Q&A sessions so as to not ask a duplicate question.


Once again, thanks to FNMan for taking the time to answer member's questions. That is very nice of him!

QUESTIONS:

1. When will the FNAR be released for public sale? Early June.

2. Do you have a ballpark price (MSRP) for the SCAR light? Not at this time.

3. How many FN Forum members here would have to commit to a "group buy" in order for FN to enable an early buy of the 5.7 PBR (first run would be great). If this is possible, what would the price be? Sorry, not possible, we only sell through distributors.

6. Are there any plans for any other bullpup rifles? Sorry, not at this time.

7. Is the FNP compact set to be discontinued? The "M" model was discontinued in '07.

8. Any plans for a 6.8 spc in the SCAR, and will it be based on the SCAR light? There has been work on the 6.8 for the military. Not sure if it will be offered as a commercial rifle.

9. Is FN was coming out with 10 round detachable box mags for the SPR? Yes, we are working on that as we speak.

10. Which models of PSR rifles are available/shipping?[/quote][b] None at this time. The first PSR's won't be available until 1st. Q '09.

[Vibe]

This is my "one" question.

How many of the posters here would have to commit to a buy in order to enable an early buy of the 5.7 PBR (first run would be great).

If the answer could be phrased to include info on these it would be great. Since the last answer on pricing was not real definitive.

Also the prices of the various PBRs varies quite a bit from $650(give or take) to $1200+ or so depending on dealer and specifics) What price would we be looking at (if it's doable)?

[Robert S]

This may have been asked already but I did not see it in any of the Q&As. My apologies if it has.

Will there be any compact or sub compact pistols that use the 5.7x28mm rounds and if so when can we expect to see them.

Thanks
