This gun needs it's on thread

The Five-seveN was designed for maximum penetration while still maintaining the low recoil and overall small size of a pistol round. That's why its ideal for shooting people in body armor. However, this means it is more or less useless for home defense as you're unlikely to encounter a home invader wearing ballistic kevlar and the effects of armor piercing ammunition are lesser than expanding type bullets on unarmored targets.

Thats kind of why I have decided against it. Its more of a novelty gun for me. It would be sweet to have it, but really no reason to need it.

Yep. And even in the incredibly unlikely event that your house would be invaded by someone wearing body armor, at the ranges home defense takes place at even an unaccomplished marksman can shoot someone in the face.

Unless he's like that guy from Lethal Weapon all covered in steel and a welding mask and **** with the flamethrower. Then you're ****ed.
